Personal
description:
In the year 1942, on the 16th day of December, I was born in
Hamburg, Germany - in the middle of a bomb-raid! The following time
as refugee has surely left its trace in my subconscious, as some
people will call me restless, while others will call me ”very
flexible and adaptive” - which can more or less be the same
thing...
At least any new challenge will get me to highest performance,
while routine is virtually killing me.
The struggle for survival immediately after the war (together with
some genes) have created another pattern in the brain: the constant
and automatic search for alternatives - how can this thing be used
/ misused for a total different purposes than it was intended for?
- how can it be simplified and still do the same job? - what is the
smallest common denominator for this problem? In other words: the
ability to find the best way around...
