Dirk Brünsicke

human, software developer, father of three, web citizen since 1996. Working with technology for 3 decades - always strives to improve.

autodidact

Curious for almost anything and everything. Even more so, if it involves consciousness, science, web-technology or is for a common good. Highly sceptic about established rules that are derived from power or tradition instead of reason.

agile prototyper

uses easy-to-use technology and human methods to allow for fast and easy iterating over ideas and concepts to see, what works and what not. Sticks with the best and improves from that on.

disassembler

approaching problems from the base, disassembling every part that is involved in a certain topic. Then, get rid of everything that is not absolutely necessary to stay with only essentials and arrange them in the way, that just fits together.

happy thinker

as long, as this is possible: tries to be happy about things, while improving all the bad parts of something.

human being

with all there is to it: sometimes feeling, sometimes logical. Questioning the status quo and see where it leads to.

meditation teacher

practicing and cultivating a meditative state-of-mind, is present to every moment and acknowledges everything that is.
