Tim Packer Art





I was in Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa for 15 days for various reasons. While in Ottawa I stumbled upon this Canadian artist's work in a gallery. I really love it. I think I will get one eventually for the final spot in our house that needs a piece. Tim Packer site.

Anyways, back to life....

Am now part of a startup.

I'm very engaged. It's exciting to wake up and work for yourself for a change.

Had a startup/spinout, Nial Systems Limited from Queen's in mid-80s wound down in 2005.

Worked for not-for-profits: Alberta Research Council, iCORE, Cybera for 22 years.

Now creating VrSTORM with partners.

This line caught my eye while reading it last night:

"The edge of her anxiety had receded, not quite past the horizon but sufficient to have restored her curiosity." - William Gibson, Spook Country, 2006 pg. 172
