Hello unknown visitor.
You want to know something more about myself..
Remember links start in a new browser window

I'm born in 1952 in Venlo, Limburg, the Netherlands, Europe.
I had an unfinished college education and some short courses.
As young as 16 I hitchhiked through Europe and saw
Zappa for the first time and became a fan.
Since 1973 I live and work in Eindhoven.
Soon I became interested and involved with the
alternative culture and I specialize on light shows for music.

The youth center the Effenaar was a very good base for the next 20 years.
Besides doing light shows for performances of John Cale, the Fall,
Birthday Party, Nico, Henry Rollins, Red hot chili peppers,
Shockabilly and many others. I traveled a lot with
a Zappa inspired band, called Bleeding Romeo.
Also I was organizing and presenting for 7 years
the International Zappa convention day.
Now and then I make radio shows or
perform as DJ with a thematic program.
I organize some gigs for a handful of English bands
and I'm the first stop for the tours of the Muffin Men,
from Liverpool on the waste land.
The last 5 years I run a foundation of audiovisual experiences
in witch I include all my doings like making light sculptures




Also I started about 3 years ago with Internet
and the results you see on this site.

I build an office/kiosk called VAB in Autonomic
Republic 2B and supply them with taking care for the
entrance, promotion, decoration and Internet publicity.
Hobby's: First of all music but then with or beside
good beer, wine, tequila, soft drugs, pleasure,
swimming, cycling and fooling around.
I live mostly alone but with regular visits
of one or more of my children.
