About Me

I am a psychopath using Couchsurfing to find new victims and force them to bellydance on 8-bit music while I sing opera. You can read my references below for a subjective opinion about this experience.

In real life, I am a physician and a musician. I work as a researcher on neurological rehabilitation therapies, basically I make devices to bring back motion to the paralyzed, see https://youtu.be/4qMMdDt6Glc ; in the meanwhile, I am running a small music label called Shouka, and make my own weird stuff. You can drop ears and eyes here: https://linktr.ee/metttani
