About

Karate Dinosaur is a blog about how specialist knowledge can dramatically change the future. The idea of a T-rex punching a meteor out of the sky is ludicrous, but so is a bunch of shaven apes splitting the atom. Human capacity is changing almost daily, who knows what might be possible?

The answer, of course, is Karate Dinosaur.

What is Karate Dinosaur?

It is the one thunder lizard that remains, vigilant against the mammalian threat and doom from the sky. Why has this anomaly survived? To what does he owe his longevity? Discipline, dedication, and a deadly open hand chop are his only allies. Knowledge has saved him from the fate of his peers. Constant training has kept his senses sharp. Innovation and implementation of ever-more lethal technique are all that stand between him, and extinction.

Do not fear the Karate Dinosaur. Learn from his example. One day, we may have nothing but our strangest science to save us.


When the zombie apocalypse inevitably arrives, I will find peace with my inner flesh eating monster.

What is Dee Harding?

Dee Harding is powered by a doctorate in climatology (with a background in applied physics), occasional outbursts in French, regular doses of dubstep and breakcore (taken aurally, twice weekly), and all the confectionary a modest researcher’s salary can afford in Montreal.
