"For every complex problem, there is an answer which is short, simple and wrong." --H.L. Mencken

      “- Just starting off with a PhD at RMIT, in the areas of design research and applications of systems sciences- especially aspects such as autopoesis, emergence et al. I'm hoping the group/meets can provide some input as work progresses!”
