I fashion zeroes and ones into a variety of shapes, depending on passing clouds of mood and flitting interest. These include words of fiction and words of reportage, radio broadcasts, blogs, successful businesses, many thousands of websites, databases and strange pieces of software, glorious Gantt charts, ridiculous art projects and far too many long, verbose emails. When asked what I do for a living, I usually shrug and let someone else answer the question. I have called myself a journalist, a broadcaster, a web developer, an activist, an academic, a community organiser, and just occasionally, late at night when nobody is listening, a writer.
My days are currently gloriously occupied as the editor of Dumbo Feather magazine.
