Since April of this year I have been part of the I2N start up programs. I have roped my old pal Jesso Delahunty into the adventure and we have worked our way through a series of problems and solutions, experiments and trials.
It’s been quite the adventure!

🌟 STARTUP SPOTLIGHT: Meet Team ADIOS! With just 8 sleeps until Demo Night, we're thrilled to introduce you to our first team in our 2024 Accelerator Program!…

As I move forward with this crazy idea of mine, I understand that it is not for everybody, right now.

Death is a rubbish reality, however and whenever it happens. It’s not fun, but I feel like it could be a lot better than it is.

I’ve got another blog, it’s a 2min read and it might go some of the way to explain my fascination and desperation to improve the status quo.

Discussing death is a bit of a weird thing, not uncomfortable to do, but it is less of a normal conversation than it probably should be. I have spoken to hundreds of people about their understanding, experience and attitudes when it comes to the final stage of a life. We can talk about it from afar,...

Modern medicine has us living to an average age of 83, in Australia. That’s great news, but what does it mean for our twilight years?

This is an excellent TEDX talk from Dr Peter Saul, about the future of care and dying. Well communicated and incredibly eye-opening, I highly recommend you take the 12 minutes to watch. https://www.ted.com/talks/peter_saul_let_s_talk_about_dying?subtitle=enWe need to think about quality of life, and...

A sky burial is the most preferred by Tibetan Monks, considered more “natural”.

A number of people have told me they like the idea of a Viking funeral, which in their minds include a pyre, a body of water and someone handy with an arrow.

Many are considering the environmental impact of there death, and the options are evolving and expanding constantly.

Do you know of any rituals outside what we consider the “norm” in Australia?

Ok, here goes…

I’ve published a blog post (not my first) that I’ve wanted to share, but for some reason it’s been a difficult one to put out in the world. I think I’ve had this in the works for nearly six months.

We remember songs and flowers. We remember...
