I was born in London in 1979 and brought up there and (from 1987) in Wales.

I studied mathematics at Imperial College, London, obtaining a Master in Science degree, and then at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland, where I obtained a PhD (actually it's Doctor Rerum Naturalium but let's not get into that....) in physics. With all my nice lettery things I am, in full business-card style,

My research work focuses on neural networks and learning, econophysics and complex systems in general, and you can read about it in detail on my website at http://sci.webdrake.net/. I contribute to that other website under the name WebDrake.

What I'm working on

Science

• Self-organized criticality
• 1/f noise
• Power law
• Econophysics

Fun stuff

• Fighting Fantasy — aaahhhh, the sins of childhood. Mature adult excuse (*cough!!*): it gives me a chance to mess about with wiki technical stuff and see how it all works, because no one will care if I break a load of stuff on the way to turning this stuff into nice Citizendium articles.
