BIO
born in 1962 in Lier, Belgium.
studied filology at Louvain, Belgium.

worked a lot in bars and restaurants before i became obsessivly addicted to producing stuff on computers.

i once won a design contest of cgi-magazine and they let me go to New York for four days, that was nice.

i think in terms of writing mostly (or programming, but those are very similar processes for me)

painting is a very different process and i'm very bad at it but i do it anyway because i like the differences it produces and i like the freshness of amateurism, i guess.

what i produce new media-wise is also very much influenced by my daily practice of webdesign and programming with its concerns of usability and the pragmatic approach it implies.

dreamstoremembers- first Cathedral Call


HI all,

http://www.vilt.net/nkdee

Suddenly the Cathedral is having a little severely aged savage
bourjoy spring rite at it's doorstep
including 'V is 4 Vessel', a male only collibri-addiction
- 6 lines starting with "i knew a girl once" -thing
you're all welcome to contribute 2 'V is 4 Vessel'
using your male mail addresses.

You can send in your verse to dv@vilt.net before 29/03/2006 2:47 GMT +1
plus anything to go with/underneath/above it that's under 1000 kb
heck you could even show us the film of your life as long as
it's got six lines of verse in it that start with
"i knew a girl once".
It don't need to be high literature, i've put a nice example on the
homepage,
a masterfull verse by my good friend VuDu.
It don't need to be anything like that example. It don't need to be coy
either.
It just needs to be six lines starting with "i knew a girl once".

4 days to go.

A personal selection of contributions will be published in a Cathedral
Scroll at
http://www.vilt.net/nkdee/vis4vessel.jsp after 28/03/2006,
as soon as i can get them sorted out.

All contributions will be published at http://vis4vessel.blogspot.com
When you send sth in you will receive an invitation from the blog app,
so you'll be able to post there till kingdom come or google goes broke.
This is not an April Fools thing.
No press - no rewards except your own.

QT, SWF, larger bitmaps & shockwave will be hosted on ViLTNET
provided they're send before 29/03/2006 2:47 GMT +1

4 days to go.

Please state in your mail if & how
you want your credentials to appear,
preferably just provide a page i can link to
or fill out your blogspot profile.

KEYWORDS: spring, male, memory, gender, Cathedral, writing, whatever, www

FAQ:

Why the rush?
the Cathedral wants spontaneous stuff, no balanced art objects, it's a
process thing.
If you can't come up with anything in 4 days that means it just wasn't
there.

Why are u doing this?
Dunno. It's nearly Spring here & i heard a lot of guys complaining and
getting moody lately.
Somehow, at one point they all started talking about a girl they once knew.

Who's gonna run the blog after 29/03/2006 2:47 GMT +1?
You are. Everybody gets admin rights to the blog, the first one who's in
gets to delete my rights on 29/03/2006 2:47 GMT +1.
I don't feel ok with collabs after 3 or 4 days & besides i already have a
Cathedral to run.

Why 29/03/2006 2:47 GMT +1?
It's 4 days from now if i got it right (i'm very stupid with time)

What will be your criterea for the personal selection?
if there's anything to select, i will primarily select stuff that _also_
comments
on writing and/or the WWW in a way that makes sense to me

Please spread this invitation anywhere you see fit.
