About Me

Hey, I’m Kevin.

Online, I go by cliophate (/klioʊfeɪt/), which explains the weird logo and domain.
I’m 33, from Luxembourg, and I’ve been making things online for more than half my life.

These days, I’m building a life around three things:
health, clarity, creativity, and play.

This site — cliophate.wtf — is where all of that comes together.

By day, I work in digital strategy at Luxembourg’s biggest newspaper. By night, I co-run overkill Media, a tech and gaming project with a gonzo journalism twist. Our flagship, overkill.wtf, has become a go-to for handheld PC fans. I help shape content, set direction, and keep the chaos productive.

Outside of that, I’m focused on living better.
Not in the productivity-hack sense, but in the “what makes a day feel good” sense.
That means lifting heavy, running slow, writing long, sleeping well, reading deeply, and building systems to keep my head clear.

I publish Thinking Out Loud, a newsletter version of this blog. Same writing, just delivered to your inbox if that’s your thing.

If you want a starting point, I’ll soon have a “Start Here” post that links to the best of what I’ve written.

Otherwise, wander around. Skim the essays. Check the notes.

This site is where I think in public, test ideas, and share what’s working. It’s built for people who want to live and work with more clarity, depth, and direction.

(Oh, and don’t ask me to smile for pictures. That’s not happening.)

In case you want to support my writing, here is my Ko-Fi link.

You can also follow me on Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, and Instagram. Whichever fits your rhythm best.

N.B.: Some notes on the ⊙ ✶ △ symbols you see here. They represent the three "alter egos" I adopt.

⊙ in Jungian Psychology is the symbol for the Self = Kevin
✶ is a spark or an asterisk which is the symbol I chose for writing (and apparently the new icon used for anything AI, so it might also stand for “intelligence” aka thinking) = Clio
△ in math is the most stable shape = Atlas
