SETI
SETI: the Search for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence
While not making music I'm the Lead System Administrator/CIO for Breakthrough Listen: the world's biggest SETI project. We're headquartered in Oxford, but I'm stationed at UC Berkeley's Radio Astronomy Lab (where it started). I do a little bit of everything in order to keep the whole international operation going: interfacing with telescopes around the planet, installing hardware, running observations, recording/reducing data, webmastering , database admin, building analysis pipelines, writing papers, mentoring interns, etc. I also helped build and maintain SETI@home during its entire 20-year life span. You can read More About SETI and how it pertains to me.

Writing
I've been writing compulsively in a daily journal for about 35 years (current estimated total: 8 million words, or about 16 thousand pages). I compile these into autobiographical tales which I regularly post on line.
