David Field


David Field is the online editor of Atomicmpc.com.au, and has been writing about technology for over two years.

Thanks to a passionate nature and an engineer’s mind, his writing reserves a special kind of venom for anything that’s been created with indifference -- half arsed projects, hollow marketing, false promises and things that make the world a bad place. Accordingly, he is convinced that there is a special layer of hell for anyone involved in a scam to steal people’s money in exchange for obnoxious ringtones.

He makes short films in his spare time that isn’t devoured by gaming, drinking and (attempting to) kite surf.
