Universal Everything & Me

Visit to Science Museum

Started the day with a visit to the new Media Space at the Science Museum, getting a guided tour of the wonderful exhibition of photographs by Tony Ray-Jones and Martin Parr, and then of the Universal Everything & You space, where you can sketch on iPads and the system takes over and elaborates your doodles into the most amazing, swirling animations – which I noted to William Waldegrave and a few others was almost as good as LSD. Was then asked by the curator if she could quote me?

Introduction

I began this blog with an entry reporting on a visit to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution on Cape Cod, on 30 September 2003. The blog element of the website has gone through several iterations since, with much of the older material still available.

Like so many things in my life, blog entries blur the boundaries between the personal and the professional. As explained on this site’s Home Page, the website and the blog are part platform for ongoing projects, part autobiography, and part accountability mechanism.

In addition, my blogs have appeared on many sites such as: Chinadialogue, CSRWire, Fast Company, GreenBiz, Guardian Sustainable Business, and the Harvard Business Review.
