| Bio: | What I'm listening to:
  </div>
I do my music blogging at last.fm at the moment. I'm in a band called The National Pep. We're very good. I and my principal songwriting partner, ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) tiltcorazon, also do a National Pepcast.
I didn't have a bio up here until today, but historthecrow posted this on his academic blog, talking about my LJ, and I have to say I agree with every word:
"Andrew Hickey is a genius. When he has time he writes on a bewildering array of subjects, including quantum theory, information theory, Bayesian analysis, cybernetics, comics, the Beach Boys, and curing cancer. Often all at the same time. My obsession with Claude Shannon is entirely his fault. He is also a musician, songwriter, and podcaster, and doesn’t like Richard Dawkins." |
