You landed at the homepage of Georg Holzman, a guy from Austria with many interests.
Some of them are holidays, machine learning, everything related to audio and computer music, open source software, politics, economy, new technologies and of course much more.

From time to time I am working on little projects, if I really have to I am coding some software and in very rare cases I even write publications Wink. Please contact me in the case of any feedback or questions and you are invited to leave comments at all articles (that's possible event without registering).
