Rayner is an award-winning writer of satirical and speculative fiction.   By day, Mark teaches his bemused students at the Faculty of Information and Media Studies (at The University of Western Ontario), how to construct digital images, web sites, and viable information architectures that will not become self-aware and destroy all humans. By night he is a writer of short stories, novels, squibs and other drivel. (Some pure, and some quite tainted with meaning.) Influences: Kurt Vonnegut, Philip K. Dick, William Shakespeare, Samuel Beckett, Chuck Palahniuk, Tom Robbins, George Orwell, Julian Barnes, Milan Kundera, William Gibson, Douglas Adams, Christopher Moore, Harold Pinter, Tom Stoppard.
