I’m an experienced technologist, architect and manager of software teams. In a career of nearly 40 years I’ve worked in consulting and permanent roles as as CTO (at Sibelius Software, 2004-2008, at Vyclone Inc, 2011-2014, and Tido, 2014-2016), infrastructure architect, consultant and trainer, team leader and developer. I’ve chaired the OT conference twice, and presented papers and run workshop sessions on many aspects of technology, practice and culture at OT/SPA and many other conferences, seminars and symposia. I’m currently looking after a global front-office Equity Derivatives front-office development group at a major international investment bank.

I write about music (mostly) on Medium, and publish a bunch of arrangements and original works via Fedora Music.

You can find a handful of video performances on my YouTube channel, and a more comprehensive set of audio recordings on SoundCloud.

My old (ancient Joomla/PHP) site disappeared a few years back, courtesy of several (necessary!) system ugrades by my ISP. You can find the last good snapshot of the site and associated blog on the Internet Archive - note that even by this point bit-rot had set in, and several links don’t work). And if you want to go even further back in time, you can!.
