ABOUT ME

I'm living near Moscow, working as a teacher in Bauman Moscow State Technical University. My speciality is networking, computer architecture, web and so on. But second part of my life is music, we have some of musical project: Akvalung, indy-folk-rock http:/akvalung.peiot.ru/en/ , Drugoy Les, ethnic improvisation, and various collaborations. I have a little net-label http://freeasabird.ru/ and share some interesting live russian music here. Besides, I practice yoga a little, and tai-chi and qigung a few years.

I don't smoke, don't drinking alcohol and don't take drugs. And I don't eat meat too now.

PHILOSOPHY

Deep inside my heart I've got this
Everlasting love that shining
Like the sun that radiates on everyone

And the more that I give
The more I've got to give
It's the way that I live
It's what I'm living for
