Mark Daniel Osborne lives with his wife and young son in a suburb about twenty kilometres from Melbourne’s CBD. His life is all about missions, projects and learning. This has led him to try his hand at everything he can in search of more knowledge. He arranged the notes written during this search into a self-published study on every aspect of the nature of his relationship between himself and the world around him. His journey included a three year stint in a Christian cult which involved spending several months in a missionary position in Fiji. A follower of scientific progress as well as a fan of mid twentieth-century science fiction, these days he seeks a fusion between scientific, religious and political dogma when he is not researching anything else he fancies. He has dabbled in many forms of art, social organisations and sports clubs. He is currently agnostic. He also works as a computer programmer.
