Hi all, Another introduction 'email' I'm afraid, but as a few others seem to be doing it, I'll plunge in. I'm a 37 y/o environmental consultant/lecturer with a PhD in biochemistry from the University of Wales. I currently manage a small environmental 'unit' at Staffordshire University, UK. I'm married with one 3 year old son who exhibits far too much Dynamic Quality for me to cope with at 6 am each morning! Until about 3 years ago I motorcycled daily to work with summer excursions around the UK and Europe on the bike (as far as Vienna). I read ZAMM when I was in my teens and LILA just after it came out. I'm still trying to understand the concepts as they relate to 'real' life and have attempted to introduce a little 'Quality' into my lectures, especially last year when I was teaching an undergrad module entitled 'Workplace Awareness and Personal Development'. I'm fascinated by the posts to the MoQ and hope to be able to contribute something coherent at some stage. I think the recent discussions regarding a 'Quality' book or course are very interesting. We are heavily involved here with distributed learning - teaching Environmental courses via the internet and I think, rather than a formal text, a course run via a website would be much more 'flexible' (higher DQ?) than a paper book - hey,another analogy - Dynamic internet tuition versus Static paper tuition? I also play the guitar - and have started wondering - is DQ dangerous? Does a direct 'connection' with DQ burn you out? I'm thinking of people like Jimi Hendrix, who were often quoted as 'channelling' music from some kind of mystical source. Robert Fripp of King Crimson has said that music plays 'through him', rather than him playing it - some kind of link with DQ? I look forward to reading your thoughts on this. best regards Dave http://www.staffs.ac.uk/distlearn http://www.staffs.ac.uk/schools/sciences/consultancy/cet/cet.html http://www.mp3.com/lastchanceuk Dr. Dave Moreman Your Friendly Manager At: The Centre for Environmental Technology Staffordshire University College Road Stoke-on-Trent ST4 2DE tel: 01782 294830 fax: 01782 295768 http://www.staffs.ac.uk/schools/sciences/consultancy/cet/cet.html MOQ.ORG - http://www.moq.org Mail Archive - http://alt.venus.co.uk/hypermail/moq_discuss/ MD Queries - [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe from moq_discuss follow the instructions at: http://www.moq.org/md/subscribe.html
