Hi, I'm Sam
A kiwi writer living in Edinburgh. My articles focus on mind, brain, and machine. My work has been published in OneZero, Forge, and Human Parts. In 2016 I self-published Connecting the Dots, a book about learning how to learn, and I'm busy working on my second book, Mental Effort. I also enjoy the odd musical composition, and having a go at photography and illustration.
