John Wallbank

Given my 6'9" height, I've played a fair share of unique character roles but my main talent is writing tall tales. Having an academic background and work experience in spirituality and the social sciences, along with research in a broad range of technological advances, I find a special affinity to writing scientifically grounded thrillers and comedy. Most of these stories also shed some light - fearsome or funny - on the social and spiritual implications of technological developments.

Originally from Florida, I live in Venice Beach. I often take part in Silicon Beach events and have some pending ventures that mix film and television with new media. Whether it's genetics or entertainment, computer technology or media, some of the best opportunities come in the form of hybrids. As specialization and polarization dominate scientific, political and popular culture, few people are capable of bridging different fields or perspectives, but that means it's all the more important to do so.
