Welcome to my Meshes
Updated: 11 Jan 2012
Who am I? Tough question. My name is Andreas Skyman
and I was born the 1st of November in 1982. I was until recently a physics major at Chalmers University of Technology in
Gothenburg, Sweden. In my fourth year I followed the Complex Adaptive
Systems programme, an international masters programme here at
Chalmers, which joins
computation, mathematics, physics and biology in an interesting
synthesis. I have interests beyond this of course. Some are
listed below. You can also find my master's thesis and CV down there.
I am now enrolled as a PhD-student, studying Turbulent impurity transport in tokamak fusion plasmas.
Some interests of mine:
Capoeira!
Being
a
fan
of
Douglas
Adams
Reading books*
Writing
Phantasy Star
Roleplaying*
I have also studied Japanese at
A-levels. (Yes, I do watch Anime occasionally, but I
prefer
Manga.)
What about this site?
Nothing much really. I just thought
an open web-directory was boring. I might add some more content at
some stage, but not right now. =) What you can find thus far is
listed below.
Odds and thingamajigs by and about me:
Clustering and collisions in
stochastic turbulence is the title of my M.Sc. thesis. The code it is based on can be found
here.
My CV in Swedish* and
in English. (They're probably not up to date...)
Are you a Turing Machine?
Find out here* (in English here).
Thought the Copenhagen
Interpretation was the only one?
It isn't!*
(more, in English, here;
this is still my only cited piece of academic work... Here is a neat movie illustrating the process.)
My contribution to the Phandom:
Fanbook Translation.
I like languages! I consider my English to be very good (for a non-native speaker) and I also know German, Norwegian, and some Portuguese and Japanese.

(!)FAQ:
Q: Do you write everything in LaTeX?
A: Yes, almost everything -- posters and presentations included -- and before you ask: because it's the best!
Q: Which Editor do you use?
A: Why, Vim of course! It's the most competent editor I know + it can be made to work with Git, LaTeX and all manner of things if you like. Here's a nice tutorial: A Byte of Vim.
Q: You seem like a nice guy, can I contact you?
A: Sure, mail
me.
My GPG-fingerprint is: D99C FE47 1718 8F97 1B50 6484 10AE 99CE 23FF F662
Please note that Chalmers has changed its mail system. Instead of
the @dd.chalmers.se and @student.chalmers.se suffixes, please use
@chalmers.se or @gmail.com instead!
Q: You suck and I want to scold you, can I contact you?
A: Sure, mail me.
Q: Any other ways of contacting you?
A: Try ICQ. My UIN is
8059663. I am also an avid user of Skype, and you can find me on
MSN as well, though not with the adresses above
(try @hotmail).
Q: Your site is very boring. Why is that?
A: Because I'm lazy and I don't really care. If you want more
design then goto this page, which
was also made by yours truly.
