Brief bio:
Originally an electronics engineer. Decided against a career with corporates and authored a tutorial for understanding the concepts involved in banking and investment strategies. Created numerous business enterprises (more for interest than seeking to create wealth). These included: a gaming club; a discotheque; retail fashion shops in London's Carnaby Steet, King's Road and Oxford Street. A fashion design studio "Street Theatre".
Bought an Apple computer in the 1980s and in the 1990s produced the award winning CD-ROM book "How God Makes God".
Became interested in biological and evolutionary systems as a basis for software development. Wrote two books one on scripting: "Lingo Sorcery" and another "Magical A-Life Avatars" involving bots and artificial intelligence. Wrote three books about the internet: "The Entrepreneurial Web", "The Ultimate Game of Strategy" and "Web Presence".
Worked on several projects involving the use of bots in communication systems.
Became interested in virtual worlds in 2007, exploring the unique environment called "Second Life".
In 2010, started experimenting with information systems based upon the concept of "Hilbert Space".
In 2018, experimented with 3D printing and 3D computer graphic design.
In 2022, returned to an interest in artificial intelligence when Elon Musk's OpenAI project started to provide AI machine learning models that generated images from prompts written in natural language.
