I was born in a small town in the southern Ukraine and spent half of my life in Kyiv. At the age of thirteen I met a yogin who taught me basics of Eastern metaphysics and some important practices. Three years later modern music became the main interest in my life and all the rest gradually slid to the background (however did not disappear completely). When getting university degree in the field of acoustics and electronics I was in parallel studying European languages, literature, psychology and history of religion. At the age of thirty-two I felt deeply disappointed in all my occupations and studies that were promising in the end nothing but another job well or no so well paid. Then I asked myself “is there anything else at all in this world, anything really different?..” And a very strange and unexpected answer came to my mind out of nowhere: “alchemy”.
