It is likely to meet me if you visit Chaosdorf. I’d like to introduce you by giving a tour of our space. Also, I’m willing to help you with your needs and ideas regarding the infrastructure. You can contact me anytime if you have questions and ideas. Especially, if you are in some kind of conflict situation.

About
TL;DR: Vegan Anarchist Nerd

One of the few(?) vegan people in the hacker subculture. I won’t blame you if you eat animal products. But I consider a plant-based diet healty and delicious. It is a versatile mindset for food hacking and a daily reminder to care for a healthy, lucky lifestyle. Like free software, veganism is some kind of radical approach. So I’m an anarchist. This means I promise to be honest, cooperative, non-violent and unwilling to accept any kind of domination. I came to the CCC, because it’s a non-hierarchical organization of people who see the potential of computers for achieving a free and peaceful society.

My activities with computers cover systems administration, web development and networking. And a bit of multimedia. My other favorite activities include cooking (and eating). My special superpower is structural thinking. On the other hand, I have some kind of disability for communication under stress. The one leads to the other, maybe.

In my experience with student groups, social centres and activism, my (dis-)ability often lead to results, but I kind of felt limited. Of all the places in my past and current life, Chaosdorf is the most inspiring. There, I found out about my specialness by seeing it in others. Also, I can follow my urge for doing things freely and get lots of encouragement by the collective. (Thank you!)
