My name is Mathijs Lagerberg, co-founder of CrimsonBase, student at the Utrecht University and spare-time-cartoonist. On this site you can find examples of my work, and news updates about it.

Programming as a hobbyist since a very young age, I started studying computer sciences in 2003 and am currently working on getting my Masters degree. I am experienced in (and enjoy) creating websites, desktop applications and mobile phone apps using all the modern gadgets available (AJAX, Twitter or Facebook integration, iPhone compatibility, you name it and I’ll figure out how to do it). In daily life I build a QuickGene, a software package for DNA analysis and cloning, with the young (and quite awesome, might I say) company CrimsonBase.

Work

Other things I do include design work, illustrating, photography, writing ollekebollekes and creating useless applications for fun. I founded howcoldisit.com, an ever growing and just-not-finished-enough website that tells you (in semi-foul language) what the weather is like, and created the Firefox extension TryAgain, which is now being maintained by Paul Lammertsma.

Why is there a monkey in your soup?

Only the monkey knows.
