Nodepet is in reality Olliver Wichmann. And that is me, of course. When people have to describe me there are usually some things they can agree upon: They keep me for a highly intelligent person, seem to be impressed about my skills and knowledge (of which I am somehow unaware) and state they have never encountered a person like me before. When I myself think about me, I do not think about anything special, except that I am aware about my existence and its irrelevance in the grand scheme of things. That does not mean I artificially put myself down to get a more favourable rating, on the contrary, I am said to have a realistic view on my capabilities, but I am very critical and hard to satisfy with what I am doing and rather lose a day or two for fixing a problem than to accept that I do not know how to solve it.

I frankly admit to be someone who prefers to be on his own. Trivial sociocultural rituals like small talk make me feel uneasy, because I never really know what to say or which gestures to show. Thus most of my activities do not really require the help of someone else like composing, writing, photography, design, reading, programming, malware research and figuring out how to get something working without reading the manual. I am probably best known for my former role as maintainer of BBClone, a php based web counter and for my contributions in malware research and spam fighting. Those who know of it commend my photography, my music, my design and writing skills (again I am merely rephrasing what others say). Obviously this my personal site, where I talk about my music, but also other things that are of interest to me, so do not be too surprised to find personal rants and mourns next to highly technical descriptions about server configurations, articles about my music theory or my excitement about having stumbled upon a rare tree, shrub or vine species.
