Bio
Serial Entrepreneur. At an early age (16) I founded a computer game company - Argonaut. My first hit game was StarGlider in the 80s. I helped to make some of the first 3d technology for the computer games industry like the SuperFX chip used in StarFox. in late 90's I helped to spin out a microprocessor company called ARC. In 2003, I was awarded an OBE for services to the computer games industry. In 2005 I founded a (legal!) online poker site in europe called PKR.com - Recently have been experimenting with mobile software on iphone and Blackberry through Origin8.com. Im still trying to think of my next big thing. Meanwhile, im building a high tech and energy efficient home for my family. Life member of Bafta. Live in London. Married, 2 girls, 2 boys, one dog.
I'm passionate about
building a high tech, low carbon and relatively energy efficient home, i'm not a tree hugger. I dont want to compromise my creature comforts but I do want a comfortable yet low carbon home.
An idea worth spreading
cant we take the output of our air conditioners, run it through a heatpump, and heat our hot water ?
