A mysterious Lego figure washed ashore in the Netherlands last week:
Its shirt says "No Real Than You Are." Hmmm.....

About Me
I'm an Associate Fellow at Oxford University's Saïd Business School, where I work with students on projects related to the future technology and strategy, and a visiting scholar in Stanford's HPST program. Previously I was a research director at the Institute for the Future, a think tank in Silicon Valley; managing editor at Encyclopaedia Britannica; and an academic. More professional details are available in my c.v.
I have a new venture in stealth mode; I'll be writing a lot about it late this fall. I'm also finishing on a book on the end of cyberspace, tentatively titled The End of Cyberspace. (My first book, Empire and the Sun: Victorian Solar Eclipse Expeditions, was published by Stanford University Press in 2002.)
