Irene Barnard 
     
    
      Irene Barnard is one of the many  anxiety-ridden by-products of our digital age’s information overload. She’s not  quite sure whether she’s Afrikaans or English, free or searching, too grounded  or too fanciful … After completing her BA in Information Science, and  consequently her BAHons in English Studies at the University of Stellenbosch,  she followed global convention by settling on foreign terrain – both  uncertainly and indefinitely.  
        
        Irene’s main  interests involve the deployment of multimedia, from both a technical/creative  as well as a literary approach. Until she unearths the magic cave of resources  she needs for this venture, she’ll be continuing work as a Web Producer in the  North of England. It is during her daily train journeys that she writes and  allows herself semi-coherent sentiment.
