Author & Artist
Music was my most beloved and most intimate language during the first 20 years of my life. However, I chose not to pursue a path as a pianist and I never really regretted that decision. Over the last 20 years, while I have still kept up the piano with some occasional concerts and for some time also as teacher - my preferred way of expressing myself has shifted more and more towards writing.
Originally, this process started at the age of 19 with writing fiction novels. Between 1999 and 2008 I wrote a trilogy of novels that I never published. Yet, the process of writing guided my personal and intellectual growth significantly.
Today I am writing various kinds of text:
-
Popular science (books, blogs and essays)
-
Reflective poems and essays
The fact that I dare to label myself as an artist here refers mainly to my subject
My latest popular science book (in German, co-authored
with J. Böhme) can be ordered here.
Some of my blogs and essays can be found here.
If you are interested in my poems, please contact me personally. The same applies
to my piano lessons and concerts. Due to my many other scientific commitments
they have become more and more occasional. Still, it is precious for me to keep this
side of myself alive and I am generally open to personal requests in this direction.
And lastly:
If you happen to be interested in helping me to publish my fantasy novels
please let me know. After keeping them private for so many years I would love to
make them accessible to the public.
