Emage Diakon

1980ies: Birth in a valley beneath Germany's haunted Harz-Mountains, realm of witches and pagan devils. Growing up and first contact with morbid and dark imagery. Early sketches with demonic entities. Young fascination with the dark side of mankind, which will increase with the years.

1990ies: Dwelling in the aestetics of cyber-space-worlds and virtual reality. Successful attemps to create these worlds. Embrace of the images of chosen computer-entertainment with constant influence of the future. Discovery of Doctor Anton Szandor LaVey's works with perfect agreement.

Dawn of the third millenium: after a salutary time of service in the armed forces begin of studies in college, an overall success which is crowned with an diploma after four and a half years. Joining the Church Of Satan in 2002. First experiments with music-studio-equipment. Decision to practice the painting-abilities. Voyage to Ludwigshafen to meet with several members of the Church Of Satan and to do a television-interview in 2004. Important contacts are made which last until today. In 2006 becoming a member of the Temple Of The Vampire. The experiment turns out to be very inspiring and worth pursuing. Time will tell...

Menschenblut, Egelwut
Ewig ist die Würmerbrut
Blood of man, Wrath of leech
Eternal is the breed of worm "
