Besides launching satellites into space and implanting friends bionic eyes, Kosta does the normal things - like breathing, eating, smiling. On as much of a regular basis as possible. But that's all predictable. He likes to have three meals a day although exciting at times, isn't really what he would consider earth shattering. Therefore he tries to shake it up as much as possible. He banned his job over a year ago and has been traveling for the last year, to collect brand new experiences. Gliding in Scotland, designing robots in Montreal, photographing and writing, climbing buildings in New York, hanging out with hackers in Amsterdam. It's been a journey. And now he's coming to Berlin.

He's insanely passionate about Nutella as it is spreadable, chocolaty, loaded with hazelnuts. It inspires, it motivates, it is both kinky when used with partners, and as useful as duct tape (nutella caulking anyone?). There are some other passions, but not nearly as notable as tasty Nutella.

Besides that Kosta lives up to contributing to humanity, because he's human, and this is a team effort. That's why he volunteers at soup kitchens, walks old ladies across the street, joins in on co-ops and smiles at strangers. He works with NGO’s - right now the goal is to build an inexpensive encrypted phone. The idea is to allow human rights watchers to report violations from the field without jeopardizing their anonymity or security. Furthermore he tries to improving the Academic Institution. Imagine a world where innovation was the grade. On his more cultiural side Kosta is a photographer, writer, classical guitarist, an engineer, and someone who defies any sort of categorization. He tries to combine them as often as possible - photoenginomusicography.

He expects nothing at all from the Palomar5 camp as the lower his expectations are, the more fun he generally has.  So instead of focusing on what he plans to get, he'll tell you what he plans to give: ideas, insights, art, intellect, and plentiful use of the word "lets."  There's some real opportunities in Africa, in the non profit sector, education, as well as in the private money making sector. 'We'll see what people feel like tackling. I will certainly be focusing on changing myself - as in learning, growing, and experiencing.  That's a life-time commitment.  I also want to change my clothes because my style is lacking.'. Kosta says.

In Berlin Kosta badly wants to have a bratwurst party, go to a German metal bar just to scare himself, figure out if all these people who talk about innovation actually do anything innovative (talk is cheap), see how much fun there'll be during the camp, and of course creating something that changes the world.

And hey Kosta, we're nailing you on your promise to make us a crème brulée one of these days.
