Important Computing Issues this Century



About me
I live in Auckland, New Zealand and I like to program (mainly games these days). I like Poetry, Photography, Walking my dog, and playing around with Unix (Linux)
(BTW, I am not John Travolta, though he does look a bit like me...)
What I'm interested in:
  • Programming
    I like to program with DJGPP and Allegro for DOS. I don't write much worth mentioning, but I am mainly interested in simulation or mathematical problems.
  • Poetry
    I occasionally write poetry when I am fortunate enough to be inspired to do so. Several of my poems have been published in a local booklet called "Scribble" named after the Fidonet echo where I and other poets, erm, write poetry (most of the time :)
  • Photography
    Kind of a hard interest to put into words :) I own a semi-automatic SLR (which I mostly leave on auto exposure), with two zoom lenses (30-70mm, 80-210). I equally like shooting landscape, and abstract scenes, just trying to capture the natural mathematical beauty of the Universe I suppose. 50mm photography is an interesting exercise too.
