I was born in 1981 in Austria. Right now I study business administration in Vienna. My interests include:


 * arcade games, video games and pinball machines, especially their appearances in movies or series
 * electronic/alternative music
 * comics (from everywhere)
 * pop culture in general
 * martial arts (mainly the Chinese boxing style Ving Tsun)

I consider myself as an occasional contributor. When I stumble upon an interesting fact or a relation that isn't yet in Wikipedia I will add it.

One thing that really annoys me here is the rule to cite references for EVERYTHING, even for the most obvious facts, the ones for which references can be hardly found, if at all. Example: reference for a Playstation game that supports the Analog Joystick... Nobody asks for references in "normal" homepages, forums or even encyclopedias so why here? I say its just a matter of evolution till some wrong information gets corrected (and these processes are often well documented). Don't get me wrong, I have written some papers and I understand the concept of the scientific approach, I just don't see this approach working well when it comes to the ever-changing popular culture, where the references themselves are sometimes questionable or keep disappearing from the web.
