Not recommended for reproduction... ;-)

As it should sufficiently be known, I am a fan of strange experiments - that means small things
with a great effect...
Because of that, I became anxiously to do something with a lamp which sayed goodbye with a small >Plopp<...
As I'm a fan of plasma light effects and because I already have reached great results
with coils in the microwave field to produce large sparks (I also succeeded to make other things to send out light, too...), the idea was not too far away: that lamp had to be tested in my microwave oven...
|
Hmm... what shall I say: the plasma light I have reached in this experiment was the best I have ever seen in
my microwave. However, after about 3 seconds of operation (at 70Watts of microwave power), the fulminant joy of light found an end with a last and final (but much more fulminant...) big bang which unfortunately for sure did disturb the sleep of some inhabitants here in Gerlingen... ;-)
Fascinating how robust the construction of those microwave oven doors are... ;-)
This experiment is explicitely not recommended for reproduction!!!

Off Topic: Chris Kennedy's CD "Change Of Heart" now available!
During my studies in Regensburg, I met a remarkable student from Great Britain who had astonishing capabilities in terms of music - Chris Kennedy. Together with my best friend Roland Menzel, they recorded and mastered a CD full of really cool music done at several locations.
Note that it is not a usual thing that I post off-topic stuff here, but this music is really very professional and I hope that my friend Chris gets some more fans when publishing this news here... ;-)
Just have a look at Chris' page and decide yourself!

... arrived in Gerlingen!

|
Two weeks after arriving in Gerlingen (a nice little town very near Stuttgart, Germany), I wanted to let you know that things are stabilizing and the stress of the moves Regensburg -> parent's home -> Gerlingen more and more goes away.
On tuesday I will have worked for my employer Endress+Hauser Conducta for already two weeks now... ;-)
Things are nice and cool here in Gerlingen but I still need a bit time for acclimating.
Now I have to find a rhythm again to answer my floods of emails and to work (of course a bit more slowly than before) on my projects.
You can find the updated contact addresses on my about page.

Goodbye Regensburg...
(click to enlarge)
|
On 2003-02-28, my last day in Regensburg was over. As my future living- and working-location will be Stuttgart, I had to relutantly leave Regensburg. As I've found very good friends there, a last joint 'goodbye-meal' was unalterable... I again want to thank all my friends in Regensburg for the fantastic time!!
Note: Although I'm out of Regensburg, I'm definitely not out of world! ;-)
|
Important:
|
My address and phone number used in Regensburg is not valid, anymore!
After finishing my move to Stuttgart, I will provide updated contact data.
Furthermore I want to apologize myself for any delays which may happen in answering enquiries.
Thank your for your understanding!

Java Applets-pages updated
Being also a Mac OS X user since the first day, I didn't like the fact that the applets on my
homepage only worked with very few OS X browsers. I have checked several times and read a lot of documentation and I'm sure that there is a bug in OS X's appletviewer which has to do with parsing URLs. My used URL-scheme (for example ?location=applets/vlife/index) seems to confuse the URL parser.
Today I discovered a way to get all applets in spite of this problem to work by using absolute applet paths.
I have checked with every Java-enabled browser on my systems and now it works everywhere! All pages in the Java Applets section have been changed - some were even relayouted for better "user experience".

Unveiling OS3.9's AmiDock Easteregg... :-)
Yes - you perhaps never did expect that but AmiDock has an Easteregg, too... :)
As I do not know a not trustful person which could be used to spread around how this Easteregg is accessible by rumors, I had to describe it myself on my homepage... ;-)
If you're interested, please read on...
