The 52:52:52 project, launching on this site and on social media in 2025, will help you address 52 issues with 52 responses over 52 weeks.

This site addresses what's changing, at the personal, organisational and societal levels. You'll learn about key changes across more than 150 elements of life, from ageing and time, through nature and animals, to kindness and love...and much more besides, which will help you better prepare for related change in your own life.

Halcyon In Kaleidoscope features irregular and fragmentary writings - on ideas and values, places and people - which evolve over time into mini essais, paying humble homage to the peerless founder of the genre. The kaleidoscope is Halcyon's prime metaphor, viewing the world through ever-moving lenses.

A Mundane Comedy is Dom Kelleher's new book, which will be published in 2025. The introduction is available here and further extracts will appear on this site and on social media in the coming months.

On London Halcyon In Kal… 10 September 2014

"Earth hath not anything to show more fair..." Never been too sure about that, but undoubtedly our the city of my youth holds a special place in my heart.

The following animation shows the evolution of the capital from its days as Londinium in 50 AD, the commercial centre of the Roman Empire, to its present form as we know it today.

Contrast this with a 2014 drone's view of London.
