No posting lately. Hardly even checked my pet blog. Way too many things to do…but soon I’m on holidays, and then there are a couple of weeks of writing and then more holiday. It’s conceivable I’ll blog in there somewhere – or maybe not.
Have fun!

Finally I can share what I’ve been working on! I absolutely loved writing this book, taking the time to dig deep into histories, ideas and theories that I think really help understand how machine vision technologies like facial recognition and image generation are impacting us today.

Dear Jill
I was interested to read of your research in an article in, ‘The Guardinan’
It’s dated 2004 and I wondered if you’re still interested in ficblogs?
My ficblog is from a nine year old boy’s perspective but there are others
I have started a discussion group for ficblogging-I’ll send you an invute
in case you’re interested.
Best Wishes
