I am a music producer and musician and also a writer.

These days I concentrate on writing.

I just finished a book about a painting, the "Adoration of the Mystical Lamb", the Genth altarpiece by Jan Van Eyck, the 15th century painter.The book is to be be published later this year.( For the moment only in Dutch.) Title : "Van Eyck, de Aanbidding van het Lam Gods : machtsdroom en esoterie".(Van Eyck, the Adoration of the mystical lamb : the dream of power and esoterism).

At the moment I focus on Spinoza, the17th century philosopher, on Gilles Deleuze, the 20th century philosopher, and on the work of Anselm Kiefer, the contemporary artist.

I have a particular interest in the psychopathological aspect of power, in other words, paranoia, which I think is the main source of violence, war and genocide. So I feel connected to Elias Canetti and Wolfgang Treher. I also plan a book on this subject.

Special place for Big Joe Williams, J.J.Cale, Jim Kerr and Thom Yorke.

My teachers are Spinoza, Nietzsche and Canetti.

I love Vintage Stratocasters, Neumann mikes, Havannas, Clairefontaine 90 gr ivory paper, Uniball pens, Schmincke oil paints, Trappist beer and cacao.

Final part of "Music for 18 musicians" one of Steve Reich's masterpeices.
