ABOUT ME

My name is Juri Vagner. I am a MA student at Danish Institute of Electronic Music (DIEM) in Århus, where I am still studying distantly. Before living in Denmark for 1 year, I spent 4 memorable years in UK, where I also studied. Now I live in my hometown in Tallinn, where I work in the audio for films studio and occasionally teaching at Tallinn University. The main reason, why I went studying abroad was actually a will to discover other cultures, meet different people, explore other places and learn the World more, than just from the books or TV. I did and still do to explore more cultures, and now I want to go even further beyond Europe, as soon as I travel around the Europe completely (more or less). Being a creative person I always gain my inspiration from exploration and experiments (emotional and technical) therefore travel is just another thing that inspires me a lot

PHILOSOPHY

"Everyone should be respected as an individual, but no one idolized."

"Everything should be as simple as it is, but not simpler."

"I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."

Albert Einstein

Interests

My main interest is art as a whole. I always appreciate art in any form, and hate, when it turns into making money. I am always looking forward for something new, undiscovered and from some point joining this project is also aspiration.
