If I could express myself artistically I'd be an artist. Being artistically inept, I'm a grateful consumer of other peoples art. I'm a great admire of Steve Biko, Nina Simone, Miriam Makeba, Chris Hani, Noam Chomsky and Amy Goodman.

I work on calibration and imaging of radio interferometric data. In short, I try to make pretty pictures of the radio sky.
