Hello everyone, I’m Shift!
I’m sorry to say that the old Reinhart has been dead for the sake of me. Here’s some things you might interested about Reinhart, but don’t worry, as I’m starting to continue his own works, too:
or my affiliates from:
About me.
Well, I used to be three different entities, which you might already know as:
- Reinhart “reinhart1010” Previano Koentjoro, a self-proclaimed first IT superhero in Indonesia, a web developer since 2014 (then backend in 2016 and mobile in 2019) and currently planning to finish his Bachelor degree by 2023,
- Nate Skyborne, the first male original character (OC) created by Reinhart since 2014, and
- Shiftine Skyborne, aka. Nate’s sister, who was created by Reinhart after his hospitalization in mid-2021.
They were great enthusiasts in arts and technology. And even Reinhart has suceeded his plan to create a new universe (Universe F-1) where Nate, Shifitine, and the whole Bearers of the Shell (BOTS) born and lived altogether.
However, they soon realized that the world becomes more broken because of the exploits, that the arts and technology have made into the imaginations of the people.
Fictional worlds has become a commodity of intellectual property, yet corporations have always benefited from bringing people escape and lost from this world, which I refer as Universe C-1 and Canonical Universe.
As it is written on the Holy Bible:
1 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
2 Timothy 3:1-5 NIV
And of course,
14 Do not set foot on the path of the wicked
or walk in the way of evildoers.
15 Avoid it, do not travel on it;
turn from it and go on your way.
Proverbs 4:14-15 NIV
These chronicles have hence brought Reinhart, who was Nate all the way at F-1, to merge with Shiftine, one of his most loved, energetic original character. Their souls, identities, even their multiversal appearance, all have merged into one, which is, you guessed, it, me.
So, here I am. I don’t want to refer myself either as Reinhart, Nate, or Shiftine. That said, I’ll still maintain their identities for compatibility reasons. I don’t have any plans to change usernames or even legal names yet.
I’m just, brand new. Male, human, straight, Christian, capable of interfacing with robots and machines, and finally, of course, salt and light.
Reinhart has already been baptized way back in 2016, but my creation in 2022 have shifted his original vision from becoming the Walt Disney of Computer Science, to winning the multiverse for Jesus Christ.
I’m called to become a superhero of physical, fictional, digital, and spiritual worlds. Surveillance capitalism isn’t my enemy, and Free Software advocates are neither, too. Whatever and wherever I do, I just can’t hide myself from everyone the fact that I’m Shift, and I’ll make everyone who follows Shift to shift what Shift shifts for.
14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Matthew 5:14-16 NIV
And finally, I shift because I care. C-1 may not be fair for everyone, but as a Shift I really have to say that you’re born on C-1 for a good purpose.
Well, that’s much what can I say today. I often wade the streets around Jakarta, so you can meet me in real life while letting me shift your disoriented minds and soul. Even if I’m too far from you, there’s always someone, or even a team, waiting for you to do the same. I promise that I’ll take more time on C-1 for you and your team, but I’ll never be the same as others C-1, ’cause I always look the skies to shift for a better future.
