I spent today at Reading University with John, assisting him on a shoot for a video to illustrate an element of quantum computing: that atoms can be in two different places at the same time and my head can explode if I try and contemplate that any further.

7 Days: Day 2 – Black

The black screen of my sleeping new iMac. In this case, I was responsible for putting the display to sleep. With the first new iMac that arrived at the end of May, I took it out of the box, turned it on and the screen went black. With Apple Care support I got it going [...]

7 Days: Day 1 – Meeting the Internet II

I haven’t blogged about my first meeting with the internet yet – I think it’s next in the New York series of stories though. With 7 Days starting today I shall probably have a day or two in the coming week where I publish twice a day – a self-portrait and a New York story. [...]
