About the Editor

Editor Patrick Clark, President of Carolina Morning Designs, has been researching and writing about ergonomics, nutrition and somatics for over ten years.

He was editor of Kokopelli Notes: The Journal of Self-Propelled Transportation (1990-1994), which was nationally distributed, reviewed by Utne Reader, and won the E-Town E-chievement Award in 1993.

He also has a certificate in Permaculture Design as well as Outdoor Leadership from the Wilderness Education Association.

Patrick Clark graduated from Lawrence High in 1982, and the University of Kansas in 1987 with a B.S. degree in Education.

Mr. Clark has been interested in anthropology, nutrition, human locomotion and the history of transportation and furniture, from a cultural, lifestyle, and environmental perspective. He realized the body mechanics and biology of human locomotion were applicable to everyday activities in the home and office and his design focus has been integrating these two areas of life.

Some of Patrick's favorite activities are: hiking, swimming, bicycling, backpacking, gardening, playing the banjo, skateboarding and continuing to learn, experiment, explore and invent.
