I am an unreformed anti-representationalist and I think in terms of dynamic systems theory.

My professional activities are described in the above tabs.  Links to various websites I maintain, contribute to, or am in some way associated with are on the right.

Here’s a video of a talk I gave on rhythm in speech to the Illinois Language and Linguistics Society, in April 2011.

I have recently released a connectionist simulator for use in teaching the basics of artificial neural networks. Basic Prop Version 1.0.
