Introduction
Basically I'm just another freelance software dev in the fields of
interactive media, net- and embedded technologies. Luckily I mostly can
combine my hobby with my professional work, which is mainly OSS development
and some interests in Arts.
My favorite programming languages are python and plain old C, doing this
on free operating systems like GNU/Linux (just this entire site is
written on a GNU/Linux "enabled" laptop). I'm using OSS tools and especially
GNU/Linux since the early 90s, though I'm also familiar with Symbian OS, C++
and other non-free operating systems and not so funny programming
languages.
What I'm mostly like in these fields is collaboration. This means generating
knowledge and other works for all. I'm strongly convinced mostly everything
is networked, depends and could only be done with other people. I really
dislike "one man" shows, be it in arts, programming or politics.
