I'm Volleyball Champion!

My team PSV Salzburg became champion in the volleyball league of the province of Salzburg, Austria. I have to admit I only played the last two games because of an injury last autumn and my trip to Costa Rica, but never mind. It's also not such a big deal because there are only four teams in this league (and two of them are PSV teams) but nevertheless it sounds good :)

Going to Canada

I'm going to Canada by the end of April. Together with Wolfgang and Christoph I will be travelling round Nova Scotia and then from Halifax to Montreal. We will attend CHI 2006 and have a research in progress aka poster presentation there. *yipieh!*

server & lomo problems


It's so annoying. I just finished my Costa Rica online web album but the webserver of our university where I'm hosting my website doesn't work *grmpf*. I also scanned some action shots taken by a lomo camera (see weblink). I borrowed the camera from Regina for this holiday, but it got broken at the end of the journey. I'm very sorry for that and promised her to replace it.

back from Costa Rica


It was ABSOLUTELY fantastic! Lena (our communication officer aka Lt. Uhura), Robert (technician aka Scottie), Lorenz (pilot aka Cpt. Kirk) & I (navigator) had an ABSOLUTELY fantastic time in Costa Rica (as well as few days in Nicaragua and Panama). I will put a few more picture and some anecdotes online in the photos section in the next few days. Saludos!

master's degree finished & holiday

Monday was the day of my final exam for my master in communication science. After long discussions about my admission, 2 terms of studying, 1 term writing my diploma thesis and a month preparation for this exam it's over. I feel relieved and look forward to my holiday in Costa Rica together with Lena, Robert & Lorenz. I'm just happy :)

diploma thesis almost completed


Yesterday I handed my diploma thesis over to my Prof. From my point of view this little piece of work (180 pages) is finished and I pray my Prof. thinks so too. So I hope that never in my life again I will have to do anything with interactive television. I worked about 1,5 years on that topic - a topic which is basically questionable - and I think that's more than enough. Thanks for all those who helped me carrying out my research and writing this text. Keep your fingers crossed on the 30 January from 10-11 am. At that time I will do my diploma exam.

some impressions from edinburgh

It took Wolfgang just 2 months to download the pictures from his mobile phone and I needed another week to put them online (I did not even edit them).
