Laurent Garnier

Garnier and colleagues with a live machine musical experience that left me strangely wanting less.

Boon Duivels Bier

2/5. Chocolate and caramel flavours with a suspicion of cola. Rather too sweet for my taste.

Cuvée Delphine

5/5. Rich, complex and promisingly dark, Cuvée Delphine’s stint in Bourbon casks is time well spent.

Who you gonna call?

Hello you, I'm Mike Padgett. I'm not a Princeton curator, Knoxville mayoral candidate, Kentuckian pastor or Arizona journalist, I just share the same name. In fact, I am a consultant working in user experience and information design.

I also enjoy travel, concerts, films and walking.

I'm originally from Yorkshire, England but nowadays I live in Belgium. My current favourite Belgian beer is Black Albert.

Shameless self-promotion

Dopeology.org

Over a year in the making, Dopeology.org is my latest personal project: a topology of doping in thirty years of European pro road cycling.

I collected information from thousands of sources, then I modelled and published it via a lightweight user interface.
