About

My name is Steven Clark. I’m currently working through the second half of a Master of Business Administration (Journalism and Media Studies) at the University of Tasmania, and I have a Bachelor of Computing from the same university. I have an industry level TAFE Certificate IV in Web Design, a Certificate IV in Web Administration, a Certificate III in Information Technology (General) and a Certificate II in Information Technology. I also have Cisco Certification with CCNA1 Networking Basics and CCNA2 Routers and Routing Basics.

I have worked for a number of employers including public sector departments, and private sector clients in Hobart, Melbourne, Sydney, the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, the United Kingdom, and Dubai. My roles include low level graphic design, web design, copy writing, and web development. I have a strong interest in accessibility, usability and interface design.

My great passion in life is the growing awareness of the difference between inclusive and exclusive globalisation. I’d probably like to recommend you off to the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy’s immortalised warning – DON’T PANIC – if you’re going to do any research into that direction. I’d also recommend a good towel, as per the recommendations in the aforementioned book.

Am I the MBA to help you downsize, rationalise, off-shore to the cheapest party and finally sell crap at ridiculous prices? No. And I won’t help you destroy the planet or degrade the resources we’re responsible for maintaining… the industrial revolution brought us mass production and that, my friends, was a huge blunder. But that’s another story.

When I leave the MBA program with a further specialisation in Journalism and Media Studies it would be good to take that knowledge and get involved either with one of the businesses with the right outlook or to take the re-education of society into hand and join the direct fight against exclusive globalisation.

But I guess that’s my almost all-consuming passion in a world where mostly people are either apathetic or overtly avoiding the facts. Oh and I do a little web design and so forth if that’s confusing you…

In the words of Rennie Ellis, “Lifes a Beach”.

Currently Reading The Accidental Guerrilla by David Kilcullen

Late last year I watched an address to the Australian National Press Club from counter-terrorism expert and author of The Accidental Guerrilla: Fighting Small Wars in the Midst of a Big One , David Kilcullen. In that address he mentioned the period after World War 2 when, in retrospect, we had wars against colonialisation as countries pushed back against dominating forces. Similarly, when we look back at the current wars we’ll see them as wars against globalisation – people pushing back against the tide of world wide Americanisation and globalised culture. David Kilcullen is there to inform us that what the American government are group-labeling global terrorists are more often than not local insurgents with local concerns. Understanding this crucial point and unraveling the complexity of the enemy is crucial to America's success in the field.
