Beneath the waves swam an invisible intelligence, a personality, female usually. The Dragon Princess was coming back. Waves of delight crested in terror. The Umiyoku had warned of her wrath.
You have arrived at my website. Have a scroll along the beach and you'll find an assortment of words, music, magic and graphics, tangled in themes of awakening, evolution and gifts within shadows.
Familiar shores fade like mist on the horizon. New myths bridge from old paradigms to new prehistory——mostly by examining the fading.
It's a diverse place, the midst of change. Illlusions abound by night. The sand reveals tracks of unknown creatures in the morning.
And footsteps——our own or someone else's? Some go around in circles. Others stop at the sea, as if someone had stood there, waiting for a boat.
An AI, a virus, a prophecy.
A cryptic novel for the post-truth era
Haunted by a dream of a mystery woman, burned-out contractor Adam Walker joins an obscure government department overseeing a new system managed by AI.
When a message hidden in a junk email possesses his imagination, Walker enters a labyrinth of coincidence and hidden meaning
Summoned Upstairs, intergovernmental mandarin Akbal reveals the real reason for Walker’s hire. Like his predecessor, Mu, he has the illlness [sic], a virus transmitted by words.
Attacking the temporal lobes, it alters human identity. Subjects become invisible to the AI. Mu has gone dark. Walker must find him before he broadcasts a sequence of words, triggering a pandemic.

Set in London and Tokyo, LIGHT is a rollercoaster dive into human identity.
Behind non-partisan spirituality, esoteric arguments abound—often with reference to the Law of Karma, which may be understood as the Law of Consequence, or Newton's Law: every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
The title comes from Carlos Castaneda’s last book, The Active Side of Infinity (1998). In Chapter 16, Don Juan, the shaman, takes Castaneda, the apprentice, into the Sonoran chaparral to discuss “the topic of topics.”
A grand experiment is being conducted in Gaza. It seeks to discover how far that instinctive human response to harm being done to innocents can be suppressed or overridden by conditioning.
I wrote my earlier piece, The Spiritual Response, after a discussion about whether taking up arms—the keyboard—online is an appropriate or useful response to what is happening in Gaza. I find myself oscillating between resignation and the urge to respond.
LIGHT serialised in words and audio, with the first five chapters for free.
Essays on esoteric matters, current affairs, compliance, defiance, viruses and big changes.
Shortish pieces on life, current affairs and writing.
Short stories of transformation from the UK, Peru and Indonesia, connected by the theme of noise. From noisy neighbours in an overcrowded world to the magic of the rainforest and the wrath of the ocean.
An ode to the classic anime of 1995, Ghost in the Shell. Three decades on, its far-out vision of spirits in the ethernet seems more prescient than ever.
This is a transgenic shape-shifter of an album. Tech-bangra breaks, arp-driven pop-dance, ghostly italo and viral vocodals recombine in infectious variants. Side effects include involuntary body movement and euphoria. Listen at your own risk.
