A few lines about the Roger behind
Roger's Re-think. |
| I'm the elder brother of Philip Tagg, prime mover of the tagg.org
website. |
| I'm a retired IT consultant and lecturer, now living in Australia. |
| I share many interests with Phil, including maps, railways and - to
a much lesser extent - music. |
| I've had a varied life, working in many different organisations, and
meeting many different people. I have spent time in many countries, and
have lived in UK, Australia, New Zealand and Iran. |
| From early involvement in religious discussion groups, I've been
reading and discussing widely on how the world's religions can progress
to a model more in tune with the global, technical and environmentally
threatened world we now inhabit. |
| I've been concerned about bullshit for many years, and even had a
book drafted many years ago, but didn't manage to find a publisher! |
| In my later years as an academic, I was involved in projects to
support people suffering information overload by introducing intelligent
software that could help by detecting meaning in incoming data and
messages, and suggesting priorities for action. |
| Now, before I get too senile, I feel it's time that I offer some of
the ideas I have found useful myself to a wider readership. I don't want
to appear as an 'influencer' or 'sermoniser'. It's just my personal take on life. |
