In England, people think I’m American and in America, people see me as British. I’ve been asked if I’m a corporate shill and challenged as to whether I’m a communist. I love technology and am deeply hostile to it. I’m a Professor but I’m not an academic. I’ve worked in radio, television, film and technology, run 5 companies, written 6 books, 6 plays and made music videos and one deeply forgettable film about how the rabbit came to be introduced into Britain. So sometimes people get a little confused.
