I reviewed <em>Father Nandru and the Wolves</em> at Wilton’s Music Hall for Everything Theatre. Wilton’s has surrounded Father Nandru and the Wolves with enticing tidbits: before the show you can grab a bit of ZakuskiLondon’s Romanian-inspired finger foods, and afterwards there is live music in the bar by gypsy bands.

Beautiful Knowledge
Yesterday I went to David McCandless’s talk “Knowledge is Beautiful” at the British Library.

If you work in data and you aren’t already … Continue reading

The Night Train
It’s coming. That birthday. The one that means I actually have to be a grownup. The best possible way to celebrate such a birthday would be to run away with the circus. As a close second, I’m dusting off a writer’s romantic dream: my notebook and I will be catching the night train to Venice. … Continue reading
