Martin Geddes

I am a British computer scientist based near London.

Over the years I have become adept at pulling apart belief systems and finding where they are deficient. This started with a childhood that involved one parent in a religious cult. In my professional role as a telecoms expert, I have worked on paradigm change in both the technical and policy spaces.

I happen to have a degree in Mathematics and Computation from the University of Oxford. Logical thinking is important, but insufficient. In a maze of deception, you also need to be able to unlearn, and recognise you have been fooled. This is an emotional skill, as it means dealing with a hurt ego and the loss of the “feeling of knowing”.

I am also a keen amateur photographer, and take great pleasure in finding the beauty in ordinary scenes which others may fail to observe or capture.
