I did a thesis on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) using Cognitive Psychology and Activity Theory as a background. Cognitive Science fascinates me but I have little experience with it. At the moment I'm a PhD student at the IT University of Copenhagen, at the PIT lab studying HCI, but I mainly have a software development background.

In 2007 I got my bachelor degree in applied informatics in Belgium. Immediately after, I started working at the company where I did my internship, AIM Productions. I liked the work and colleagues at the company too much to give up entirely for further studies, so I decided to combine the two. In 2009 I started studying for my master in Game and Media Technology at the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands and I graduated in 2012.

comment Why would the brain flip the images perceived by your eyes?
@SchroedingersCat: But it's exactly this reasoning I address. From the paper referenced in Artem's answer: "Spatial relations are not originally perceived by the eye, but are the result of the association of visual sensations with previous muscular and tactual experiences." As far as I understand it doesn't make any sense to state "flipping", or "receiving correctly", or that your tactile input does interpret it the right way up. You only know about "the correct way up" by associationg vision with tactile input.
