Who am I?My name, Swami Anahata, was given to me by the enlightened master Osho (formerly known as Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh). For a better understanding of what "Anahata" means, read Osho's own words on the subject.WorkSince 29 October 2001 I have been working for Micro-Robotics in Cambridge. They make a standard range of industrial control and measurement devices and also custom projects for industrial and medical applications. Arguably their biggest claim to fame is the technology behind the animations in the TV Muppets Show, making Micro-Robotics one of the few hi-tech companies to have won an Academy award.I am mostly a software engineer but in theory also do hardware design. I've created a TCP/IP stack (written from scratch!) for the flagship VM-1 controller, and designed an ethernet interface for it. I also maintain the office network and the company's website. Micro Robotics is a small company employing about 7 people. PlayLike most software engineers, I play with computers at home too, where there is a small network of Debian Linux boxes, an iMac and various printers and other peripherals.I've also done some web page design for other people, and training in designing and maintaining their own pages. For details see my Web Design page. |

Mary and I are now part of a new(ish) band in Cambridge called Fendragon and an even newer band with some members in Yorkshire, English Rebellion.
I am currently learning to play various bagpipes: a set of Leicestershire smallpipes in D made by Julian Goodacre, a set of Jonathan Swayne's border pipes in G - a two-drone version of his student pipes, and a Bulgarian gaida.
