My passion is contemporary cosmology as we may now understand it through the sciences and their power to give us a story about our origins and development. This is a story that takes us back through the development of life on Earth out to the stars and galaxies, and ultimately to the mysterious birth of our universe nearly 14 billion years ago. The original energy now takes human form as well as the form of every other living thing and all of nature.
My work is to bring to life, and into everyday language, this fantastic and inspiring story for people of all ages and all cultures, working through film and new media production, through writing and through teaching/public speaking. I believe that within our sense of wonder we can find a vital compass by which to guide ourselves into a more integral, sustainable and equitable future for all humans and all other beings, this planet being an expression of all the powers of the cosmos. We exist as members of an incredibly beautiful Earth community which it is now our job to care for comprehensively, involving every action we take and calling for every imaginative power we possess. |
| My background comprises a first degree in Social Anthropology from Sussex University, UK (1973), some twelve years working in television documentary production in Britain, specializing in international development and environment issues, an MA in Philosophy, Cosmology and Consciousness (CIIS, San Francisco 2003) and a course of studies in Multimedia and in the Sciences (College of Marin, 2006). I have had a lifelong involvement with photography, with special emphasis on subjects in nature. On this site is a sample of work produced between 2003 and 2008, while living and studying in the Bay Area of California. Contact link is below and further contact information is on the Bio page. |
