A few weeks ago my students in the Systems Analysis and Modelling subject closed the semester with an award ceremony prising the most accomplished assignment projects.

Yesterday I went to see #Kreator for the very first time. It was the first night of this tour and I was not at all expecting such an amazing show, sonically and visually. Besides the stage props, Sami played the whole thing on his beautiful vintage #Ibanez #Destroyer.

Shout out to #Carcass too, they do play good, electrifying music.
