Introduction	I am an imaging engineer transitioning from the industry to academia and from computational sciences to neuroscience. My specific research interest is in the columnar organization of the neocortex: neuronal connectivity, dynamics, and plasticity. My interest in moirés and shadows arose from engineering problems, but I have found that their use in arts is far from its full potential.
Interests	Neuroscience, emergence, consilience, extelligence, intelligence, human evolution, macrohistory, consciousness, long now, E-prime, hang gliding, moire synthesis, moire patterns, shadow sculpture, sundials, gnomonics
Favorite Movies	La Vie en Rose, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Once, Forrest Gump, Flight from Death, Groundhog Day, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
Favorite Books	I review my current reading in the blog.
