I am a physics Ph.D. employed at the (Ludwig-Maximilians) University of Munich (LMU).
In my free time, I write computer programs (normally using C or C++) dealing with a large range of different things. Another hobby of mine is designing and building electronic circuits and devices, but I am also spend some time doing computer graphics (raytracing), some digital photography, sports, and other things...

Since beginning of 1996, I am using GNU/Linux as my work and development platform because it is simply the most suitable environment for (most of) the things I am do. There is no other platform which can compete regarding price and availability of development tools (as well as a "community" and the openness of the design).

If you searched the web for somebody with the same name as me, chances are high that you are looking for somebody else.
