01.13.10TransmedialeNext to the all of my time munching preparings for the TEI conference I currently work on a concept for a workshop taking place on the 5th of february at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin during the Transmediale Festival. With the Workshop we will try to find new ways of reclaiming digital augmented public advertising screens and discuss possibilities of a democratic access to urban media.

04.29.09Sketching in Space - finallyI am very glad to say that the presentation of the 'sketching in space' project was a great success. All the participating students made the presentation look and feel good for both sides: the presenters and the audience. The models of the threedimanional virtually made sketches had been printed via three different rapid prototyping techniques (sls, fdm, 3D-print). As allready stated, this project can be seen as a reply to the 2 year old viral video of the swedish design team front. Instead of faking the sketching process by just waving trackers, we used the 3d sketch application to see ...

04.16.09Sketching in Space - the presentationPlease feel invited to join the presentation of the last semesters short term project at the college of fine arts berlin, which has been realized in collaboration with the Fraunhofer Institute Berlin. In two projectgroups the students had to sketch a lamp shade for a pendant light completely in the virtual environment of a CAVE. For refining lines and surfaces of the designs we used Rhino4. The lampshades have been printed via rapidprototyping techniques and will be the core elements of the presentation. A paper will be published soon about the related processes of ideation and selfreflections. *** PRESENTATION - SKETCHING IN ...

03.21.09FIELD IIAs last year there is a new field research book available. This years topic is media in public spaces, the ways of perception, intervention and interaction in and with urban environments. The book offers an impression of urban media by displaying primary cultural images and confront them with each other on 62 pages. I see and use it as a tool for inspiration and communication in design processes.
