Teach, Learn, Share

I love exchanging language (I speak English, some Thai, and a little Japanese).
I can teach computer geekery of all sorts. My other point of expertise is digital media. Digital video shooting, editing, sound design, DVD development, etc etc etc. I make music for fun as well, and would love to get together for a little jam out, especially with people interested in electronic music, or who can play an instrument and want to experiment with combining that with electronic manipulation.
