About Me

CURRENT MISSION

finetuning my filters every day.

ABOUT ME

ahh, talking about myself...
kinda hard, because in real life I do that a lot, but with these profile thingies everything always seems to be so überimportant to me that I most of the time turn out being unable to say anything.

I'm originally from Germany but have lived in London for about 3 years now.
I make strange noisy/dancey music with circuit bent instruments and Gameboys and stuff and build sculptures and installations. I also started VJing with circuit bent gear a while ago. I mostly travel when I have a reason for going somewhere such as jobs or gigs but I really love meeting all kinds of people while doing that.

PHILOSOPHY

If you're unable to change your opinion, you're dead.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

only a few so far, which were all brilliant experiences I'll never forget.

Besides, I've been on a lot of couches while being on tour. It's always nice to have the opportunity of meeting people where they live to get a deeper understanding of who they are.

Interests

The World and its people, Art, circuit bending, noise, rambling about random stuff for hours and hours.

Music, Movies, and Books

I watch movies,
I listen to (and make) music,
I read books.

It's fun stuff, you should try it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I played gigs where people completely flipped out to my music, they even started to throw furniture around. It's just so powerful to have a room full of people getting crazy to your stuff. This kinda is what keeps me alive. It never, never, ever gets boring.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I know a lot about all kinds of things, and I don't about a lot more. Being teacher or student always needs to be applicable to situations and can change from second to second.
