While picking a student grant at MFF UK, I got interested in updating the holography setup for student labs. Not only did holograms seem immensely cool to me, it was also an opportunity to get some…

About me

Hello!

My name is Michal Ciesla (pronounced [mɪxʌl cɪeslʌ], but for the first name, Michael is fine). I come from northern Bohemia (the Czech Republic) and am something what others would call "the IT guy".

I develop software as both a profession and a hobby. I'm interested in computer science, coding, feats of modern technology, space, and I know my way around several scientific fields. I studied computer science in both secondary school and college and currently I'm studying physics at a university.

I have been dancing (semi-)profesionally at my home dance school since 2010. This place has become a sort of second family to me and I've become a lecturer there in 2016. Thanks to dancing, I also taught myself how to edit music (I use FL Studio 20 to make music mixes for dance choreographies).

My favourite genre of music is EDM (House, Melodic Dubstep and similar), I admire singers of most genres, and sometimes I also like to listen to some atmospheric instrumental music.

Animated movies for kids are my favourite kind of movies and I am a fan of anime movies and short anime series (all-time favourites are Howl's Moving Castle and Your Lie In April).

In my free time I like to play some video games, such as Minecraft, Minecraft Dungeons, Stardew Valley, Terraria, Dyson Sphere Program or GRIS.
