Mees
Unecessary Introduction
My name is Mees Gelein and I'm 26 years old. My previous degree is a BA in Latin and Greek Language and Culture, which is not noticeably related to MediaTechnology. However, I decided to follow one of my passions to end up here: digital technology.
Rambling Interest Overview
Some of my interests include:
Motorcycling (Main mode of transport, but it is surprisingly still fun, more so now the weather is turning around).
Dungeons and Dragons (Tabletop role-playing game. Think cooperative storytelling meets dice. Stupid fun in the right groups. Also, I'm the DM).
Classic cars (I own one project (Rover P6 2000TC of 1975) and have worked on many with my brothers and father).
Creative Coding / Game Development (Worked on many small coding projects, even finished some!).
Music Recording / Production / Mixing / Arranging (Basically anything with music has my interest).
Woodworking (New skill that I'm slowly trying to improve upon, it's turning out to be tons of fun).
Electronic / Arduino Projects (Since September I've immersed myself into Arduino and microcontrollers, lost many an hour to reflowing solder).
Social Media & Me
While there are of course many more things to now about me, for now this will have to do. I have recently (may 2018) decided to abandon Facebook, so my online presence is mostly on GitHub: My Github Profile
Previous Projects
A lot of my software stuff can be found on GitHub (linked above), some of my music is on YouTube, however the channel has been inactive for over 3 years now, since I've been crazy busy with other stuff. Professionally I've made Comparativus, a Chinese text comparison tool for use in the MARKUS online text editing environment, I've also published a paper on this (my first and so far only publication).
