About me


When socialism is fading, the world will go down by unrestrained capitalism.

Ongeveer chronologisch vanaf 1963 in loondienst: typograaf\werktekenaar\layoutvrouw\standbouwer; marktonderzoeker; congiërge-barvrouw multifunctioneel vrouwencentrum Amsterdam; redacteur maandblad Vrouwen; redacteur Deviant; stichtingscoördinator en (eind)redacteur magazine en website; telewerker en automatiseringsspecialist. (Definitief afgedankt door de arbeidsmarkt in 2002.) Daarnaast vrijwel doorlopend (zelf)studies gedaan (psychologie, culturele antropologie, sociologie, metafysica & kentheorie, formele logica), kind opgevoed en huishouden gedaan, geschreven, fotodrukker en grafisch ontwerper geweest. Nu schrijf, poëzeer, b-log en fotografeer ik naar eigen hartelust.
