Cyber Explorer, Questioner, Philosopher
What makes you an intellectual / idealist / creator / innovator / cyber
explorer / questioner / philosopher?
Cyber_Explorer: I love the PC, making them, taking them apart and
making them go rather faster than they were intended to go. Still searching for
that elusive magic blue smoke they tell me is inside every PC, waiting to be let
out.
Questioner: I'm a geologist. I'm short-sighted, so I've always taken a
'close' interest in things. I am a keen observer of the natural world which fits
with my job quite well. Nothing is safe when I'm around; if it can be taken
apart, examined, peered at or otherwise disassembled, I'll be in the
neighbourhood! Luckily I'm not too bad at putting things back together again. I
enjoy hearing and value other people's opinions on economics, US foreign policy,
nuclear energy, you name it. A lot of what drives me is not knowing about
something makes me want to learn more. I ponder the ability of people to ignore
the obvious - I know its beautiful but did you realise you're living on the side
of a volcano? I question my own ability to work at a lead mine when I know much
of my product is used as ammunition. But I enjoy it - the work, not the
ammunition. I have a lot of questions
Philosopher: I love the question of whether we all do in fact possess
free will. Quantum mechanics, religion and medicine have not answered this
question yet. Illusion or reality?
What interests do you have that you would like others to join you in?
Day driving trips to interesting spots around Perth -
scenery, history or just a good ol' stickybeak. Astronomy and exo-planetary
geology. Other worlds are just as cool as this one. I enjoy walking. Natural
landscapes. Industrial landscapes. Architecture. Planning on and slowly learning
about kit cars and how to build them. I do fancy a fast car. Can't help it. Good
science fiction. Asimov, Niven, John Christopher. I love technology and the
change it enables. Computer games and their creation and evolution. Love to
re-re-start learning to ride a horse. Third time lucky maybe?
What have you done in your life that you have either been really proud of,
or really enjoyed?
Worked and lived in amazing places. (amazing to me anyway)
Looked up at dark skies and seen real stars. Looked up at blue sky and
thought... the stars are still there. Modeled terrain and lanscapes for computer
games. (3,400 trees) Let go of an aircraft's wing. (yikes) Landing an aircraft
for the first time. (phew) Shared all the above with other people. (cool)
What values would you like potential friends or a partner to share? Are
there any differences in the values you would require from friends as compared
to a partner, and if so, what?
A questioning mind. Tolerance. I think a partner should be a
good friend too. One that doesn't agree with you all the time. Someone who can
challenge you and be challenged without fear of the eggshell effect.
What kind of friends / partner are you looking for?
Friends who prefer coffee and conversation over alcohol and
pulling out stop signs.
Is there anything about yourself you'd like to promote? (website, business,
performances, books).
Pictures of Magellan, the mine I work at: www.ivernia.com
Anything else you'd like to say?
I love photography but I don't own a camera. I love
flying but my stomach doesn't. I'm a loner but I enjoy company. I'm not a high
flyer but I have high hopes. Never be content.
