CyberPunk Poetry, Music & Digital Art

I started quite early to write. First collecting only foreign writing, until I finally dared to wield the pen itself. I tried my hand at poetry, incidentally, I started to teach myself to play guitar to write own songs. After all, I made a total of over 12 years of music, in 80ies - 90ies overall in 4 different bands, my main band named Liquid Vision played over 8 years together. 2 were groups for a short time & 1 did I as a sideline. There were a few projects, e.g. the soundtrack for a film of a friend. I wrote most of the lyrics & designed own concepts, so the idea that all the lyrics have a basic theme, or a coherent story. Once I additionally was sometime a singer , I could romp myself in every chance so poetically I wanted. But eventually every dream has an end, & so I finished the chapter music in 2000.

The writing of poetry, however, I never gave up, even though I sometimes more, sometimes less indulging this passion. So far I own 15 volumes of poetry written, compiled & circulated. A publisher I have so far not contacted & found, but I hope someday to move something in this tendency. I actually like more modern styles, poetry & prose, but sometimes I also like very conventional poets & writers. Modern poets have so far impressed me the most.

In addition, I create regularly digital art. This kind of art I began with drawing & designed a few images for our covers. Since the computer's practically became a second skin of me, I began to realize my ideas with that machine. I also like to combine craft with digital art.

In January to March 2012, I began by accident to sing again with 3 other musicians who were looking for a new singer. But the blues of my voice was not desired by a member.

Currently, since May 2013, I play again guitar in a new band. What's next, life & the future will indicate me my way. We, the band, plays mostly other songs, a so called cover band. But, yeah, it's very hard work to copy other songs!

Musically, my strengths lie clearly in the songwriting & improvisation, so called jam sessions.

I'm constantly on writing & finding, so my preferred aim is to play music with other people, not alone. Seeking always enjoy new music, new people, a band, to produce an own set.
