About the names

The website name IanLive

The website name Ian Live was born out of the need to consolidate information about various projects in one place and to provide a platform upon which future services can be built on.

Yes, Live can be interpreted in various ways:

  • as in “Live and Let Die”,
  • as in “He’s Alive”, or
  • as in “Live at the Fillmore”.

Take it as you wish :-)

Wizian

Wizian is more my artists name and is also used as an alias in software development. It is is composed of two words - Wiz and Ian.

In my youth the nickname Wiz was born and is composed using the stem of the surname Williams, appended with a Z. But is also the short form for wizard.

In everybody there is some kind of wizard who wants to change their own world for the better using some kind of magic.
