"The FUSE Pathway urges us to live authentically by embracing and combining our truest passions to craft a purpose-driven life. Kirby’s approach offers a refreshing departure from conventional career advice, proposing a holistic and dynamic path to personal fulfillment and professional success."

Kirby offers a roadmap for anyone to achieve their dream job through fusion."
"Kirby seeks to inspire readers to use their talents in unconventional ways in this book based on his experiences blending science, robotics, and art interests to create a painting robot. The author coins the term fusioneering, defined as “combining two or more of your interests and passions to create a vision and way of life that is more in line with your true purpose.”

Paul Kirby I feel like I have watched Paul live this book over the 24 years since I first walked into his studio during a lunch break at a drawing workshop where we met as teacher (me) and student (Paul). That first encounter with Dulcinea, his painting machine, started conversations on Renaissance painting, composition and analyses of Old Master paintings which continued in museums all over Europe as Paul joined me on 9 different sketching tours.
Each trip adding concepts that turned into computer code in the hands of an artist/engineer, combining what I feel many would consider to be mutually exclusive. Paul's life is the best example of his book, living a life of purposeful enjoyment in discovery and creativity."
