Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a way to meet other people exchange and find common interests.
My experience has shown to get to the most fascinating edges of a city when getting suggestions of natives. It's always more interesting to meet people living in the places visiting.
In the past years, I have been surfing in Lublijana(Slowenia), Beograd(Serbia) and all over Brasil, and different cities in France, Portugal and Spain.

Interests

I am parttime working at a university as programming teacher and workshop leader. The rest of my time I work with lighting, visuals & media art, where I use the computer at generative tool, developing my own style of abstract lighting often combined with experimental music.

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently, I am most into experimental drones, and slow evolving soundscapes, but I also like bands like
Firewater, What's wrong with us?, The Kills, Tom Waits (maladies), I really like if it's a kind of style and kultural crossover... A lot of indy, industrial and general rock. Almost anything, the only thing that bores me is what often is played in the charts, having predictable patterns and harmonies. But also there are some really interesting examples.

Movies, i like quite a lot, in general, those managing to give me something to think about, are preferable, but I am open to anything.

Unfotunately I havn't been reading many books in the recent years, some of my long time favourites are Brave New World, 1984, Illuminatus Trilogi, der Alchimist, Alt magt til Kærlighed, The Old Man And The Sea, some of Haruki Murakamis books...
