Combinatorial Game Theory - especially impartial games, such as Take away games and Comply/Blocking games.
Combinatorial Number Theory - such as sets or functions avoiding linear equations. A famous result in this area is "Szemeredi's theorem".
Learning about ourselves, how physical and mental problems interact in "one whole system/chain of events" - I am a certified teacher of the Alexander Technique. I trained with David Gorman.
Media - I studied media, film and pedagogics at Nordens, Biskops Arnö.
