I am an inventor and have founded several companies. Over the years I have become very interested in what makes us creative and whether computers could acquire this skill.

There are lots of spiritual arguments to say humans are not just mechanistic but I wanted to know whether there is a hard scientific difference. I think I have found that essential difference in the work I have done and my first book explores this question.

I studied Physics and Computer Science at Manchester University, Design at Lancaster University and Engineering at Cambridge University. I live on a farm in Kent, England.

(Yes I had to look up the spelling of dyslexia.) I always wanted to be someone who 'has written a book' but I figured my dyslexia would make this impossible and I used to fear writing. It's a really good feeling to have achieved a life time ambition.(less)

Often I will settle down to tidy up some part of the book and end up writing something creative.(less)

“The three years it takes to acquire ‘the knowledge� and the subsequent years of navigating London’s complex streets give cabbies a 30% larger hippocampus than the average London resident.”
James Tagg, Are the Androids Dreaming Yet?: Amazing Brain. Human Communication, Creativity & Free Will

“There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns � the ones we don’t know we don’t know.”
James Tagg, Are the Androids Dreaming Yet?: Amazing Brain. Human Communication, Creativity & Free Will

“This is the outer surface of the brain where much of our thinking is done. Unfolded, this surface layer would cover the area of a football field”
James Tagg, Are the Androids Dreaming Yet?: Amazing Brain. Human Communication, Creativity & Free Will

“I came home from work one day and felt compelled to write a book about free will.”
