About me

Gender Male
Industry Consulting
Occupation I teach people about personality and research and write about it in the humanities style
Location Werribee, Victoria, Australia
Introduction I earn my money by teaching people about my particular approach to C.G. Jung's psychological types, associated ideas, assessments and implications. I like to think that my professional reputation is about what I think and write and that my personal reputation is of someone who goes about his business quietly and thoughtfully, with an element of challenging people's perspectives and points of view. I do the last bit naturally, it seems to be part of who I am. Culturally, I'm a working-class boy from the western suburbs of Melbourne from a European family long resident in that city. I identify with the culture associated with a European background, but perhaps more in the late Medieval/Renaissance aspect, an archetype of sorts. I'm not good at nor interested much in technology. That should be enough, I suppose
Interests personality and social issues, reading that makes you think, writing, history, religion, travel, Australian football, various musics, waterfalls
Favorite Movies The Adventures of Robin Hood (Errol Flynn). Movies aren't an important part of my life. I'm not a visual learner and relax through reading and listening to music.
Favorite Music Eclectic as far as genres go, or at least the way I perceive them. Often quirky, sometimes confronting music as well as some more conventional aspects of blues and jazz. Jack Bruce, John Cale, Brian Eno, Kip Hanrahan, Jonatha Brooke, Scott Walker, Miles Davis, Al Kooper, John Martyn: lots of minor artists and bits of major ones
Favorite Books I read too much to answer this question effectively. I don't really read novels, just non-fiction on history, culture, language, politics, science, psychology etc Liked Biggles books when growing up and later. Anything by C.G. Jung, Adam Phillips Jerome Kagan, Richard Sennett, Bruno Latour, European Jungian commentators, old and new, Mojo, New Scientist, London Review of Books and History Today.
