 7# hi, i'm la-ninpre
 8
 9i am also known as aaoth or lev brekalov.

11i was thinking a lot about the reason i have so many names, but i could'n find
12a clear answer. maybe i'll try to make myself up somehow, but now it's messy.

14anyway, since long time i tried to follow do-it-yourself principle, and this
15website is an example of this. web-development (if you can call it like that)
16is a new thing for me and primary reason of me doing this is probably some
17kind of web-presence. other important thing for me is the ability to create
18anything i want and make things look how i want them to look. for comparison,

21i'm creating some music and other stuff related to art, such as fonts, random
22other pictures and occasional poems. style of my creations changed a lot over
23time but it's always something unusual, non-professional and not meant to be

27linguistics). i speak russian, speak a little bit english and also

31systems, namely gnu/linux and openbsd. for all past years i've been a windows
32user, but then i realized that many things are more comfortable in
33unix userland.
34additionally, it's important for me to understand *what* exactly i'm doing, and
35the last thing is nearly impossible in closed oses like windows or mac.
