Good day...

I am Fulvio Savagnone, 49 years old scientist (what did I invent, you say?). I learned about go in 1983. Living in Rome, Italy, I had difficulties in finding opponents, but with the help of the Club in Milan I managed to contact other players.

Little by little, I created a Club, organized several international tournaments, got support from the Japanese and Korean Embassies and JAL, had professionals visit Rome (most notably my idol Takemiya in 1990), and so on...

In 1984 I was 9k, in 1985 I was 3k. In 1986 I took part, as the Italian representative, in the 8th WAGC, and I even managed to win two games...

But then gradually I moved to other activities (especially girlfriends who didn't play Go, and Taiko drumming), totally stopping to play in 1989. The Takemiya visit was my last game: I lost, of course.... ;-) But love for the game never quit me, so I've started again to play in 1999, and now I enjoy Go as much as I can!
I'm still 3k, though... ;-) (1772 latest EGF Rating)
On IGS I am DJFlux (how inventive!), recently promoted to 3k* ;-)))
On KGS I have a few, misterious ID's...

Other interests and hobbies: music (I am a weird DJ, specialized in ethno contaminations, Bhangra and Asian Underground...), poetry, fine arts, sailing, sloppy trekking in the mountains, good food and wines and beers and...

My initiatives in the 80's for organising go in Rome gained me a honorary membership in FIGG (Federazione Italiana Giuoco Go) in the 90's.
In this century, I am the current Chairman of AGI (Associazione Goistica Italiana).

If you really feel like to flatter me, send me a mail at [email] dj.flux@iol.it
