“There
is not one human problem that could not be solved if people would simply do
as I advise.” Gore Vidal “I
would sooner have fifty unnatural vices than one unnatural virtue.” Oscar
Wilde (1854 – 1900) “How did
it come about that a vice which would destroy mankind if it were general,
that a sordid outrage against nature, is still so
natural?” Voltaire (1694 – 1778) “Genuine
homosexuality is not a vice, it is an endowment.” Joseph Collins (1866 –
1950) |
I am glad you have decided to
explore my homepage, but you might ask why call this site “Digital
Palimpsest”? Over past 14 years that I have been on the Internet, these pages
and images have previously appeared in various forms and on many other
websites I have made. This one retains much of both the old information about
me as well as a lot of new stuff such as my Photography, News and a like. Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia, defines a palimpsest
as a manuscript page, scroll,
or book
that has been written on, scraped off, and used again.
The word palimpsest comes from two Greek roots (palin
+ psEn) meaning, "scraped again." Romans
wrote on wax-coated tablets that could be reused,
and a passing use of the rather bookish term "palimpsest" by Cicero
seems to refer to this practice. So I think the term palimpsest maybe
suitable applied to this site of course, being electronic, I added the prefix
digital as a union of this ancient term with the more modern expression of
written information we now have. I'm currently working for an employment service. I Administer about 22% of the Gold Coast's Work for The Dole Projects. If you like you're welcome to peruse my résumé. I have a broad range of skills and abilities with extensive experience in organising, producing and running Community events such as Concerts, Outdoor Entertainment and Family Days. Along with this, I also have experience and skills in Desktop publishing, Photography and Design layout. I have experience training both team leaders as well as groups of more than 30 people in areas such as staging, sound and lighting as well as counseling. I have been involved with marketing and promotions as well as many areas of the media. Along with a broad interest in the community and wide experience both internationally and within I hope that you enjoy this site and take the time to contact me. |
