I have laboratory research experience in Hearing Science, but I also publish in Mathematical Modelling and in Cybernetics, altogether a rare combination. Information Theory is a particular interest.
My list of publications includes 30 peer-reviewed papers, 23 Proceedings, 52 Abstracts, 5 book chapters, and 11 printed Letters to Editors, as well as 4 online "published" Letters to Editors (all regarding the state of professional ethics).
I was a member of the Organizing Committee of the American Society for Cybernetics conference "An Ecology of Ideas" at Asilomar, California, 2012.
I also have hobbies. As of 26 December 2023, I have 350 poems in print (in 111 or so journals, representing 12 countries), 1 poem as a wall poster (Montmartre, Paris, 2011), 1 poem in a "Best Of" compilation, 4 other poems online, and 7 poems as spoken-word recordings. I was a Featured Poet in Orbis (2014) and in Graffiti (2016). I have two Pushcart Prize nominations: “Watermark” (Spillway, Vol. 25, 2017) and “Canine” (U.S. 1 Worksheets, Vol. 63, 2018).
As of 26 December 2023, I have 53 photographs in print in poetry journals (including 6 covers: Existere 2014, 2015; Kestrel, 2015; Southwestern American Lit., 2015; Noctua Review, 2016; Indefinite Space, 2018).
