I am energetic, stubborn, and secretly sensitive.

My Self-Summary

Hey everyone,

I am tall, blond, with a rather acidic sense of humor. I really enjoy travelling, seeing and trying new things (foods, cultural oddities, architecture, sports), discussions about politics or various other topics, music, tango argentino, independent cinema, mathematics and much more.

Uhm. It should be evident by now that I am really bad at doing only one thing at a time, and that I have horribly wide-ranging interests.

What I’m doing with my life

Usually too many things at once. I finished my Diplom last Summer and am currently working on my PhD. I also started a startup a few years ago -- we're now a team of 8 people, and it's a lot of fun still.

I am lucky in that both my work and the PhD stuff are activities that I enjoy -- as such I am terribly happy with my life.

I’m really good at

- playing devil's advocate
- arguing a point that I don't necessarily support
- being happy in spite of the world going to hell :-)
- quoting german old-school rap
- making fun of myself
- I like to think that I am good at explaining stuff, but that might be self-deception

The first things people usually notice about me

Probably that no matter how hard I try to dress properly, there is always something slightly disheveled about me. I was once told that I am good at wearing suits, mainly because I manage to look casual in them. This means that I can easily look *very* casual outside of a suit.

I don't know exactly though. I haven't asked too many people about this.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Uh, many.

Books:
Hagakure
Pretty much anything Douglas Adams wrote
Gibson
Guns, Germs and Steel
Pretty much anything Kafka wrote
The moon is a harsh mistress
Peddling Prosperity
Gang Leader for a day
Anarchy in the UKR
Memoirs found in a bathtub
The futurological congress
Err ... I could go on for ages, so I will stop here.

Movies:
Lock, Stock and two Smoking Barrels
eXistenZ
Pi
Russia House
The emperors new groove
Hero
Beyond Hypothermia
Cube
Brothers (the Danish movie)
Adams Äpfel (classic !)
I probably forgot a number of movies I really liked on this list.

Music: Eclectic
Bach, Tango Argentino, Tango Nuevo, German Old-School Rap, Portishead, Massive Attack, Reggea/Dancehall, Looptroop, (Classical) Jazz, almost anything with a beautiful female voice, some select bits of electronic music.

The six things I could never do without

- Water (preferrably an ocean)
- Sun
- Laughter
- Good Food
- Fun Discussions
- Friends

I would have a hard time thinking about a 7th item though.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Politricks, Mathematics, Computer Science, Ethics, Women, the beauty of being outside.

On a typical Friday night I am

seeing friends. The details change.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I am much softer on the inside than I am willing to admit in public. I have unsuccessfully fought back tears while watching a movie.

You should message me if

all this still hasn't managed to scare you away. If you have similar or complementary interests. If you have beautiful eyes or a nice smile.
