About Me

CURRENT MISSION

busking, political activ

ABOUT ME

I am travelling a lot during my every-day live as a busker - I sing and play accordion - and for political activism. I partecipate and/or organize public events, demonstrations and actions for example against nuclear power or coal mining.
I love meeting new people and their way of living, hitchhiking, nice/creative direct actions for an emancipatory change and - of course - making music (with others or alone).
And I hate the idea of nations/states/gouvernments in general, the murdering fortress Europe and Capitalism with all its characteristics...

I like to diskuss with others and to get to know other (new) opinions and positions.I am travelling a lot during my every-day live as a busker - I sing and play accordion - and for political activism.

PHILOSOPHY

Many people call me an anarchist and even if I not often call myself an anarchist - because of all those negative associations with the word 'anarchism' (like anarchy=chaos ...) - they aren't wrong at all.

That means, that I spend many time (and forces) on
thinking about how a nonhierarchical, noncapitalist and solidary society could look like and what could be the best way to reach it.

I like to diskuss with others and to get to know other (new) opinions and positions.

I try to face people in a friendly and open-minded way and in generall I try to be as less dominant as possible.

So I want so see the world (and the people) with open eyes and I hope to 'infect' someone with my ideas and visions...

Interests

As I said above, I like thinking and discussing about concepts of society without hierarchies (and without ownersip). So be prepared, because sometimes it seams to be impossible for me to avoid this themes ;)

But I am also interested in the most 'essential questions' humanity have ...

That's the theoretical part. But of course I like doing many other tings. Those are:
- political acitvities in general (I know, sounds bad, but here isn't enough space to explain, what I mean and what not)
- busking and making music in general (I play accordion and sing
- different handcrafts

Music, Movies, and Books

I like many different book and film genres, for example fantasy, medieval but also postapocalyptic stuff.
And I'm nearly hooked on many kinds of music, for example I often listen to Folk, Punk, Metal Gothic, Reggae, Ska or Drum'n'Bass - as you see, I've got wide interests.
