Information

Most of the drawings I made and the information I found, was originally used in a presentation I made for an English class in college. I compiled it from information I found almost exclusively on the Net.
As I am not a professional in this field but just interested and as my native tongue is Dutch and not English it is very likely that I made mistakes.
If you want to report errors, ask questions or just congratulate me with my effort :-), you can contact me by mail ( nicks_auditorium@pandora.be ) or by ICQ (71563611).

Bio :

My full name is Nick de Graeve and I live in Hamme, a small town in Belgium. I'm an analist-programmer, prefering Java.
I got several pasttimes: reading (mostly political thrillers, some classical works,...), listening to music (black and doom metal, gothic, new and dark wave and Wagner operas(!)), watching tv (Buffy, X-Files, The Simpsons, Farscape and the like) and I'm an avid Sci-Fi fan. (I can trully enjoy a really bad one like "The Green Slime" or "Xtro".)
I also like the good ones, in particular Star Wars and I'm a member of the Belgian fanclub TeeKay-421. My interest is limited to the movies, the soundtracks, the technical aspect of movie-making and the pc-games. I haven't read a SW related single novel and I don't collect action figures.
