Music, Movies, and Books

A wide-ranging taste in music from electronic, classical and film soundtracks, to loud guitar music and thumping dance beats. A sample of what I like can be seen up at https://www.last.fm/user/cole007

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As well as (eventually) completing my PhD in archaeology, I spent a weekend in a monastery which converted me to eating meat after 16 years of vegetarianism.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach web design but have a broad range of interests from art and sketching to social history and politics.

Conversation and a large beer.
