Hi there!

I am a 26-year old norwegian physicist currently working at Ullevål universitetssykehus, Oslo. I am married to my lovely wife Sigrun, and has a fantastic son named Erlend Markus.

I made my first contribution august 13 2005. My primary interests are music, science (physics and mathematics), language, photography and technology.

My homepage is located here.


Music

[edit]

I enjoy different kinds of music, especially genres like jazz, melodious rock, some "old" pop, progressive rock and folk music.

Bands and artist i especially enjoy are

In addition, I try to play and compose music. I have a small set-up at home consisting of a masterkeyboard (Yamaha S80), a sampler (E-mu E4x), a mixer (Eurorack UB1002), a PC with Cubase and a microphone (Behringer B-1).

Science

[edit]

At the Department of Physics, University of Oslo, I hold a Bachelor's degree in physics and am currently studying for a Master's degree in biophysics/medical physics.

Other stuff

[edit]

In addition, I enjoy watching movies, working with photography, discussing language-related topics, solving Sudoku and in general everything related to natural science.


Picture of the day

[edit]
Apollo 9
Apollo 9 was the third crewed mission in the United States Apollo program. Launched by a Saturn V rocket from the Kennedy Space Center on March 3, 1969, and flown in low Earth orbit, the mission flight-qualified the Lunar Module (LM), showing that its crew could fly it independently, then rendezvous and dock, as would be required for Apollo 11, the first crewed lunar landing. Commander James McDivitt, Command Module Pilot David Scott, and Lunar Module Pilot Rusty Schweickart tested systems and procedures critical to landing on the Moon. A spacewalk tested the extravehicular life support backpack. McDivitt and Schweickart, entering the LM through the docking tunnel, became the first humans to pass between spacecraft without going outside them, two months after Soviet cosmonauts spacewalked to transfer between Soyuz 4 and Soyuz 5. Apollo 9, a complete success, landed in the Atlantic Ocean on March 13 and was followed by Apollo 10, the dress rehearsal for Apollo 11. This photograph, taken by Schweickart, shows Scott performing a stand-up extravehicular activity from the Command Module Gumdrop, seen from the docked LM Spider with the Earth in the background.Photograph credit: NASA / Rusty Schweickart; edited by Coffeeandcrumbs
