Profile
| BA (Hons) (Portsmouth) | MA (Brighton) |
My research in the last 10 years has focused on two recurring themes: The Rationalist, the Empiricist and the Metaphysician, and Colour. The relationship between these meets, beautifully, in fuzzy logic which I found to be liberation out of logical paradox. Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems unified the unprovable nature of the relationship between our need to understand, emote and touch. Unity through diversity.
