Would you like to find a geocache? Yes? Well there is a geocache at S 27° 26.669′ E 153° 00.148′, so you could find that one if you like. Be sure to log your find at geocaching.com if you do.

There is a nice park for big kids (kid to pre-teen) there too, so be sure to take them along as well.

This is a puzzle cache, but if you are reading this you have already solved—or stumbled upon the solution to—the puzzle. The cache is hidden at the base of a tree just a few steps inside the garden. There is room for a few swaps if you want to do so. Be sure to sign the log!

UPDATE: More up-to-date information is available here.

I am currently a PhD research student working in the Speech, Audio, Image and Video Technologies Research Laboratory (SAIVT) at Queensland University of Technology (QUT). My research topic is “Audio Visual Speaker Recognition”, and if all goes well I should be submitting a thesis on that topic early next year.

I also have a number of publications downloadable through QUT’s ePrint service, and a linked-in account if you are into that sort of thing. You can view my photos on flickr, and my bookmarks through del.icio.us.
