This is simply a space for posting various pieces of writing. Its primary
function is to motivate me to write and think more.

I have a background[1] in academic philosophy. I've written a doctoral
thesis on the work of the philosopher Paul Ricoeur (*Technologies in
Practice: Paul Ricoeur and the Hermeneutics of Technique, 2018*).

I have started (June 2022) keeping my personal reference notes. They
are available for perusal under the heading Box3[2].

You will also find some amateur music[3] here. This music was made under
the moniker *Loop Dreams* .

Most of the blog content here is mirrored from my Gemini capsule. Some
of the links may appear 'broken'. This will usually be because they are
links to resources hosted on Gemini. To find out more about Gemini, you
can visit the  Gemini Project[7]  page.

As of July 2022, I use Hugo[8] to generate the pages for this site.
