James Winters was formerly a student at the University of Edinburgh, and recently graduated with an MSc in the Evolution of Language and Cognition. He’s originally from Cardiff, Wales and as such is an obligatory rugby fanatic. James is also characteristic of most Welsh people in another way: he does not actually speak Welsh. He does, however, have a few choice words: sbwriel, cyfrifiadur and Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. One day he plans on expanding this repertoire of words and phrases into some semblance of the entire language. Until then, his immediate goals are largely focused around writing about language and cultural evolution (and possibly getting onto a PhD). For this reason, he decided to start this blog, which, if you come back to it in the future, will contain a vast corpus of material related to culture, its evolution and anything else in-between.
My going out face.
My slightly less attractive, blogging face.
And no, I never smile whilst writing this blog.
