The only relevant formal education I got was in primary school, when they taught me to read and write. After then I discovered, that I’m unable to make anything by hands and that I don’t have the guts for politics, I started to live on programming, design, lectures and movie production. Presently I work as developmenr security consultant and a wisdom disseminator for hire in the area of Central Europe and adjacent countries.

Also I’m founding member of the Society for prevention of cruelty on computers and for mutual understanding of silicone and carbon based forms of life.
