RobotAlien

If you are reading this you are probably wondering 'Who or what is a Robot Alien and what institution gave it a doctorate?'. Or that's what I would probably ask if I were you.
A friend of mine once introduced me to the comic Robot Hugs. It starts out with some single comic gags, but eventually it is about a genderqueer feminist who struggles with expressing themselves. This comic describes a frighteningly large amount of my life, which is where the 'robot' in Dr. Robot Alien comes from.

The resemblance is eerie
In addition to my robotic qualities, I also identify with misunderstood creatures like so called Lovecraftian 'horrors' Yog Sothoth and Cthulhu. I like to walk dark unnatural paths and perform uncanny experimentations. For that reason I pursued a PhD in physics and am now an experimental data scientist. Therefore I am a doctor, a robot and an alien.

Besides these defining qualities, I am a pretty normal person. I enjoy outdoor activities like hiking and martial arts. I enjoy indoor activities like programming, board games and building my robot army. This blog is meant to showcase some of these hobbies and my various data science side projects.

I am also a fan of animals like penguins and octopuses, as shown by this stylish hat.
