My name is John Hallmén,
I'm 22 years old and live in Stockholm, Sweden.
Occupation
I'm studying electrical engineering at KTH
(Royal Institute of Technology).
Interests
My main interest has always been animals and nature. At the age of
eleven this interest for some reason began to focus on a group of
animals scientifically referred to as amphibians. This group primarily
consists of frogs, toads and salamanders. Lately, this interest has
actually narrowed down to one particular group of frogs called dendrobatids
or Poison Dart Frogs (see the frog section).
Another, more recently discovered, interest of mine is computer graphics.
I've always liked drawing and computing (to some extension) and I
think combining these interests brings out the best of two worlds.
3D-graphics is also a great possibility the computer provide that
actually enables you to build whatever you like and view it from any
angle.
My preferred computer platform since beginning of time is Macintosh.
Now, the preferred-platform-thing has for some reason become a very
sensitive question in many circles - it's almost considered as a religion
by some people. I know Mac-users that are constantly fighting their
little jihads in their cruel PC-user environments. These are brave
people - I know because I've been one of them. Nowadays I'm just ignoring
those, almost always, infantile comments and remarks on the fact that
I prefer MacOS rather than Windows.
