About this Website

profile

This website was created to present a small selection of my interests and sources. Mostly, I believe that technology and politics should hold hands, allowing all citizens to participate in major decisions, while keeping regular lives, anywhere around the world. I also believe that complex things can and should be presented in very simple forms and languages. Finally, I believe in open source and free sharing - with respect, and always giving credits to the creators. Some of my works can be found here, mostly related to written opinions, photos and machinimas, as well as some projects I've been involved in, one way or another (like Babel Project or SADF). About me? I love coffee:)
