Hi, I'm Dick Lyon. I am a research scientist/engineer in Silicon Valley, California. I've been contributing to Wikipedia since May, 2005.

Some of my work outside Wikipedia is linked on my ancient techie home page dicklyon.com. More recent research pubs are found here. And don't forget my always-popular Otis King pages, from 1997 (the contact phone numbers there are hopelessly out of date, but I've lost the formula for how to update the site; some of the comments about being on a modem line are also a bit quaint).

And now I'm an author; so buy my book (or see my book blog to access a free online copy) if you're interested in Human and Machine Hearing.

My contributions are mostly related to photography, photometry, color, electronics, and signal processing. And in recent years, mostly photos and style gnoming. And creeks.
