Actually, “academics” (urban and architectural history and field work, history of national identities, and quite a bit of architectural and ethnographic photography as) was only the half of it. The bulk of it indeed was “marketing communications,” much of it ala Boorman, and later strategic and change consultancy and using communications to open companies and organizations to the perceptions and wishes of the individuals and groups comprising the outside world (not unlike VRM implemented from within to without). This propelled me though a hundred or so clients in a score of industries in just as many countries. Now, even as I continue the academic things in the off hours, I am glad that we are back in touch and collaborating on projects and appraoches that contribute to ensuring that the internet (except in its humor and irony) never turns into Boorman’s Journal.
