F.A.Q.
Everything you need to know about me. And more...
Can I contact you through any kind of messenger?
Yes. Although I prefer contact to go through mail, you can contact me at MSN, GoogleTalk & AIM. Mail me for the info.
Can you do XXXXX for me?
You want a new website or improve/update your old one? I can take care of both the design and programming. Want to do future updates yourself, but no HTML knowledge? No problem, fire up our own custimized CMS (HYPE.CMS) and off you go. You'll be able to update the site any time, any place. No hassle.
Something else? A shirt design? Or is it the packaging/lay-out of a record you want designed? CD, LP, 7"? It doesn't matter, it's all possible. Just let me know what you want and when you want it. We can work something out for sure. Just contact me. I'll try to respond as soon as possible.
Aside from Hypekid.com, you... ?
I sing in a hardcore/punk band, Said And Done, run a little (tape) label called Pressure Release Records and I'm currently working on my own (paper) zine called "Some Will Never Know". I'm also part of the crew behind Asice.net, Europe's leading hardcore e-zine. Aside from that I'm going to school in Arnhem. Following Multimedia & Communication Design classes at the HAN. At the moment I'm an intern at Cybox in Boxmeer though. The rest of my time I spend visiting shows, listening music, growing my vinyl collection, reading etc etc. Exciting huh?
How about pricing/costs? Can you give an indication?
It all depends on what you want exactly and when you want it. Get in touch and we'll work something out.
I mailed you five seconds ago, but you didn't reply yet. What's wrong?
I'm sorry. Something must have went terrible wrong. Normally I mail you back before you contact me... But in all fairness, usually I reply the same day. When I'm really busy it can take a bit longer. I will always try to contact you as soon as possible though.
How about your education?
From 1989-1997 I went to the primary school "Berg- & Beekschool" in Sint Anthonis.
From 1997-2002 I went to "Sg. Stevensbeek" in (surprise) Stevensbeek. I went to the HAVO as we call it in the Netherlands. Aside from the regular classes I followed extra classes in Art History, Informatics & Economics (2).
From 2002-2005 I went to De Eindhovense School in (this is amazing) Eindhoven. Because I graduated at the HAVO level and this study was at the MBO level (level 4 though) I was able to finish the study in three years instead of four. I specialised in authoring and followed classes for Multimedia Design.
And since 2005 I'm following classes for Multimedia & Communication Design at the HAN in Arnhem. This time at the HBO level. I succesfully completed the first two years and I 'm currently half-way my third. We'll see where it takes us.
