| Your personal background. | |
| Hi. My real name is Manuel Nascimento. I'm a 21 year-old portuguese student of Physics Engineering, at IST (Instituto Superior Técnico - one of the country\\'s top engineering Universities) in Lisbon Portugal. I enjoy science in general, particularly physics, a taste that as grown since I was little. I also enjoy Science-Fiction a lot, particularly those works that deal with Humanity in a plausible future setting, as that makes us reflect about the problems of today and dream about the solutions for tomorrow, which we badly need to make our world a better place for everybody... I like also OpenSource software and idealism, programming, video encoding, japanese language and culture, and I dream about living and working in Japan; I would at least like to try it out! On a more artistic note, I enjoy music a lot, I listen to almost every genre. I also like poetry and I really love figure skating. | |
| Your opinions about Einstein@Home | |
| I find BOINC to be a fantastic way for any person to make his contribution to mankind in participating in any of the projects. Making valueable processing power put to work in a useful fashion, instead of being shut down or idle is a wonderful idea. I'm most excited with Einstein@home, since it's cutting-edge of Physics challenges. Also, continuing the work of Einstein is very stimulating. I hope that my contribution, along with everybody else's, can make the definite diference in helping the project, and thus giving us a better understanding of our Universe. | |
