As a dutch based independent philosopher ('83) he is working on his introduction to Knowledge and definition of Information Nodes originated from the influx of his information architecture background. You can find more information and articles on http://wyaerda.org/ (available in English and Dutch, with twitter-feed).
As a struggling writer he is sporadically working on a psychological thriller (in dutch) and writes poetry (also in dutch). He also dreams of owning his own software development company in data management and visualisation someday.
He loves to speed skate (short track, long track and marathon) during winter and enjoy the sunshine during summer: sailing, rowing, swimming, cycling, walking and drinking a cold beer on the terraces in town.
