About me
I'm Björn Marl, born in 1966 and grown up in Plettenberg, a small town in Germany.
I learned electronics engineering and later studied information technology.
For about 13 years I was working as a freelance PC / Network technician and part time
instructor / SW developer. My first computer was a Sinclair ZX 81 somewhere in
the early 80s. During my early work on Amiga I used Modeller 3D and Videoscape.
Later I got CINEMA 4D 5 Go for hobby which was quickly replaced by XL 7. After using
XL 7 for 1/2 a year I got hired by Maxon for techsupport and some PC / network tech stuff.
When R8 development started I got involved with QA which is my main job now beside
administrating the Maxon germany Network (and pool cleaning).
I'm married for about 11 years now to my wife Yvonne. My hobbies are reading Science Fiction
(big Heinlein and Pratchett fan), motorbikes, archery and my two cats.
On the CINEMA forums my nickname is Srek.
