Keywan Najafi Tonekaboni,

I was born in Tehran, Iran, just 20 Days before the first "Persian Gulf War" began and now live in the Ruhr Area, Germany. For detailed information ask my agent, manager or lawyer.

I also started my own prometoys logo blog and run a planet named Saturn logo Saturn.

/projects

Of course, I'm involved in some projects:

AZ Mülheim

The "Autonomes Zentrum" (autonomous center) is an old indoor horse riding arena, which was adapted to a self-organized culture-centre. There is a lot of space for different projects, parties, groups and concerts. In some of these groups I help or participate.

Genderterror
Genderterror is an alternative, non-commercial queerparty, the first friday of every month.
iCafe
A cheap (maybe soon for free?!), GNU/Linux based internet-cafe. The iCafe is open on weekdays from 2PM - 8PM and it is also used for workshops or for office work by other groups, e.g. the kaschemme.
Kaschemme - Projekt V
The Kaschemme is an alternative vegan food co-op, where you can get, as a member, cheap, vegan, usually organic food. But it is also a project to connect people interested in vegan ideas for other projects, like cooking together, demonstrations, parties and so on.
Zeche23 - chaostreff an der ruhr
This is the local group of the Chaos Computer Club (CCC) in Mülheim. In our monthly meeting we talk about computers, media, privacy and sometimes arrange talks, workshops, or the legendary hacker weekends, called Hackers Hotel. Check out the website for further information.

There are a lot of other activities in the AZ, but I am "just" involved in these four.

GNOME

I started to help a little bit to translate and write documentations for GNOME, a free desktop for Linux, *BSD and other Unix Systems. But unfortunately, I have so much work at the University, that I couldn't find free time to work for GNOME. I hope in March I will have more free time.

IMC NRW

The Independent Media Center NRW (short IMC NRW) is a network or group of people, who are interested and active in independent media work. At the moment, the focus is on helping out at Indymedia Germany and reporting about social movement actions. But it also should be a network for any kind of independent media activity in Northrhine-Westfelia (a region in western Germany) and not limited to indymedia.org.

Ubuntu Linux

Ubuntu Linux is an amazing Linux Distribution, based on Debian. It use GNOME as default desktop enviroment and aims to provide a operating system, that everybody can use, independent from their language or computer skills or disabilities. At the moment I test unreleased Versions of Ubuntu and write bug reports. Also I am a "member" of the Laptop Testing Team and give feedback about Ubuntu on Acer Travelmate 223 and the newest Apple iBook G4.

You can download my PGP Public Key. If you like, you can also check the Fingerprint, but maybe it's better to check it in real life.
