And I agree, it is hard trying to hone your professional identity down to a single bite-sized chunk in the creative world. D.

The "connectionist" concept is something I totally relate to; in fact I've had a hard time defining my personal "brand" as an art director, filmmaker, presenter, designer, photographer, and web developer. Sounds like you're embracing that broadness and making it a strength, a selling point. I was impressed with just the site and the work; when I heard you sing in the first video... some people get all the talent. =) Best wishes! @allanwhite Very impressive site.

Basically, I intended it to denote someone who can approach a problem by drawing on relatively disparate fields of knowledge, and combine the strengths / techniques of these fields to formulate a novel solution. Which is pretty much how I think ideas having been evolving since cave-men thought up the wheel. I coined the phrase for a professional context though, as part of Curriculum Vitae site I'm just finishing up (<a href="http://www.dylanbaskind.com" rel="nofollow">Dylan Baskind.com</a>). What meaning did you have in mind for the term? Dylan. PS. Philosophically: I used to be a "connectionist" about the world, that is, an adamant dyed-in-the-wool determinist, a believer in predetermined & inevitable causal connection, but since investigating the micro-world of quantum phenomena I've been forced to change my tune!

My hobby is Philosophy and I've been trying to articulate my thoughts and feelings on how the world is connected. I am aware that your term means something slightly different but I just want to ask exactly what you do as a 'coonectionist', can you give me an example or something? Love the designs by the way, extremely sharp and eye catching! Nathan I love the term ‘Connectionist’ it’s great.
