Why did you look up this page?Do you really want to know who I am? A much more important question for you should be: do you know who you actually are?Anyway, let me just say that I believe that every human being is - or should be - a trinity of body, soul and spirit. Without saying that the three main themes that I distinguish below are directly parallel to this tripartition, there is a certain relationship. |
Of course, the scheme in which I exhibit my activities is but a first approximation. For example, it was impossible to fit my deceased wife Liet into it! |

Mathematics. If you don't understand the connection between this "W" and "mathematics" then you should learn the Dutch language, a language which, according to Simon Stevin, is pre-eminently suited as a language for science in general, and for mathematics in particular. | ||||||
Music. I play organ (of course, an organ
is a church organ or 'pipe organ' as many people call it; just
'organ' should suffice, as other 'organs' don't deserve that
name.)
My main interest lies with J.S. Bach,
though I love to play music by composers like Sweelinck,
Buxtehude, Pachelbel, ... , Messiaen,... As to my 'passive' music activities: I like to listen to all classical music composed between the early 12th century and the present. |

Biking ... sorry again for those people
who don't understand the Dutch language: they have to
figure out on their own what the big "F" here means.
My wife and I used to spend most of our holidays in France (this does not
explain the "F"), making big tours on our tandem.
The last couple of years we stayed in the Netherlands.
That's over now ...
