A warm welcome to The Fragile Sea! We explain here what's in our occasional newsletters; in AI and other Research Notes; and in other content & services.
A warm welcome to The Fragile Sea!
To me, life is about connections - between family and friends, meeting new people, between symbiotic and discrete subjects, joining dots, experiencing penny-drop moments, and the joy of discovery, of learning something new; a life of continuous discovery and learning.
Welcome to:
1. The Fragile Sea newsletter
Our occasional newsletter is about connections found in recent areas of interest.
2. Research notes on many different subjects of interest
Research Notes are longer subjects that don't fit the newsletter. Please see Connections and AI Connections for RNs being worked on.
3. Brief notes
Brief Notes are shorter than research notes that would also take up too much of the newsletter. They will be located on the Briefs page.
4. Faction
A bit of light entertainment away from serious subjects is surely always a welcome diversion: light-hearted leg-pulling and comedic satire, ‘non-fiction as fiction’. Please see the Faction page for more.
5. Future content and events
Future content will include developing the concept of a type of learned society open to all comers with regular meetings (based on ideas loosely sketched in one of the faction series).
We also plan to develop events, though this is likely to be a good year or 18 months away.
6. Research and consulting services
For research and consulting services, please contact us.
In terms of The Fragile Sea web, I reached out to Cathy Sarisky, Ghost Expert, who runs Spectral Web Services - this would not have been possible without her expert coding and understanding the design goals I wanted to achieve. She is a true professional and a nice person too!
The photographs on The Fragile Sea, are © Gary Easterbook, apart from a few of my own. Gary is my first cousin, and lives in Christchurch, New Zealand. Apart from photography, he's a musician, and runs vocal training courses with his partner Niki. I am beyond delighted - his photography inspires me.
Just to note also from the Terms page: The Fragile Sea does not pursue any political, religious, anti-religious, or hidden agenda, and if we like something we will say so (or not), without fear or favour. If we do mention another content writer, link, service, or product, it's because we want to, observing journalistic practice. We will be transparent about any commercial tie-ups.
I warmly welcome you to The Fragile Sea and hope you enjoy the journey!
With thanks
