A few words about unimportant things

After a six months break, I have to admit that I missed this blockchain. Although I stayed in touch with a significant number of people through Discord, I realized that I miss the writing. Honestly, this was my fault, because getting involved in too many projects (with more or less success) was what ruined my experience to a great extent.

And let's not forget the everyday battle between life, evil, and aliens, of course.

However, as always, after the chaos there is order and it seems that now everything will slowly fall into place. Some very important things have happened to me, among which I would definitely single out two.

I'm writing again.

After a break of almost five years, I am writing a novel again. It will be a reflection of common situations through the prism of horror. Horror is just a tool here that should strengthen the impression, and all the terror is right on the field of ordinary people. People who, through their actions and mutual relations, prove again and again that a person is capable of the worst things, just to achieve its primal goals. The difference in relation to everything I have written so far will mostly refer to a large number of autobiographical details. Stay tuned.

I defended my thesis.

One of the best experiences in my life was the defense of my Ph.D. thesis. It is about exploring participatory concepts that can contribute to a better life in responsive cities. Research provided a deeper understanding of current participation potentials and problems in urban planning. It also pointed to innovative tools and channels, as well as future development directions that could provide better solutions for participatory actions in an online environment.

All in all, 2020 is not that bad for me. How was it for you? Stay safe :-)
