VANITY FAIR (ABOUT ME)
I was born in Leningrad, Russia, used to live in Saint-Petersburg (actually the same city ;) ),
and began to study. Then, suddenly for myself, I moved to Germany as Russian german (or German russian - just what
You like!). I had to finish a German highschool (Gymnasium) in Trier, did my community service in Hamm (near Dotmund)
and began to study again. Now I am a student of law and economy of Eastern Europe, pretty disappointed both
at subject and Eastern Europe ;). Frankly speaking, I belong to the army of nameless webdesigners;
this homepage is just an attempt to come out of anonymity... The crash of new economy, which has reached Germany too,
forced me to look for a well-paid shelter in the old one, so now I work as a technical draughtsman in the research department of OSRAM,
still in the hope to come back to webdesign. What remains, are some projects I'm working for in a half-private way.
I am good in html and perl, especially after having been employed for some period
of time by developing internal content-management applications. But my skills and interests are much wider: PHP, mySQL, PhotoShop, Flash, Director...
By the way (are You still here?): I`ve got enough other interests, where I appear as consumer: music, literature, cinema. Just a short random list: Friedrich Dürrenmatt (my HP about him), H.Hesse, F.Kafka, E.A.Poe, G.Orwell, H.G.Wells, R.Bradbury, A.Camus, J.Conrad, Ch.Bukowski, J.Irving , O. Wilde, A. Huxley, J. Joyce, and many more... First of all russian authors... Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Depeche Mode, - my youth... The Cure, U2, R.E.M, Peter Gabriel, Simple Minds, Midnight Oil, The The, Pixies and Frank Black, Radiohead, Ash, Smashing Pumpkings, Lenny Kravitz, Massive Attack, Tricky, Blur... russian music first!.. Jarmush, Tarantino, Rodrigez, Coen-Bros, Bruce Willis, Jackie Chan, Reservoir Dogs, Clerks, Dark Star, Dr.Strangelove, Night On Earth, Down By Law, Short Cuts, A Fisch Called Wanda... russian movies as well!..
