Hello world! Здравствуй мир! My name is Roman Czyborra. I am the artist formerly known as czyborra at cs.tu-berlin.de where I studied computer science, at dds.nl as I wanted to migrate to Amsterdam (while my brother Marek made it to København), and now at taz.de, i.e. Germany's glorious alternative daily newspaper taz, die tageszeitung, where I work as one of the Unix administrators, and also as roman at bi.org because I like to educate the world with my bisexuality pages.
