Virtual Venture Competition
The consulting agency McKinsey & Company called for business plans in 2007 inside the virtual world Second Life. Titel: Bring Ideas to Life. The special thing: everything in this competition take place in Second Life, the information, meetings, the presentations and so on. And the winners should do there project also in Second Life. So we build an Oriantation Island for the main basics of Second Life, Startup-Path to inform everybody about the tasks and rules, a main building with a huge lecture theatre up to 160 people (at this time the biggest technical possible hall in Second Life), 4 meeting rooms with interactive white boards, 2 extra buildings with showrooms and a lounge area.
Main agency was pixelpark, together with Sebastian Küppers I was responsible for the architecture of all buildings. We also model a lot of stuff, especially the complete Oriantation Island.
Temporäre Kunsthalle Berlin
For a period of two years, 2008 - 2010, the Temporäre Kunsthalle Berlin has presented contemporary international art at a historically charged location. In a tensional relationship to the Museum Island and all previous and future uses of the Schlossplatz, it represents contemporariness in the center of Berlin. The architecture by Adolf Krischanitz is grasped as a "projection screen" from the inside and outside, on which artistic designs are shown to a broad public.
I worked for the project from the beginning. It was a hard fight - espacilly for Constanze Kleiner and Coco Kühn - and finally we won. I made the website for the political initiative, a lot of promotional content like the first art hall in Second Life with the exact architecture of the upcoming hall and much more. Here you see pictures from the initial website with the blue pixelsky fassade from Gerwald Rockenschaub and the first inside exibition from Candice Breitz. A lot of javascript functionality, dragging of the content pane, switching toi full screen views and so on. Graphic design was made by www.glow-berlin.de and www.veryvery.de.
After a period of two years Temporäe Kunsthalle Berlin has been closed as planned on August 31, 2010.
St. Moritz Pin
Metal pin (22 mm) in retro design for an event in St. Moritz. Only 30 pieces will be produced by a goldsmith.
Werner – Haat am Ball
Werner is a German well known cult comic figure from the author Brösel. The mobile game Werner - Haat am Ball (meaning: "near to the ball" in his typical north german slang) from lbxgames combines flipper and breakout to a intersting mobile game.
My part was the creation of all figures near to the original comic and the animation with 2 to 4 frames. Per figure I had only 16 colors left. Werner - Haat am Ball was winning the Deutscher Entwicklerpreis (German Developer Award) - Audience Choice in the category "Best mobile action game" in 2006.
mtc – Multi Touch Console
The c-base Multi Touch Console mtc is a completely self-contained, touch-sensitive table built in spare time by a group of c-base members. A projector in the table displays an image on the table surface and an infrared-sensitive camera is used to track positions of fingers touching it. The mtc reacts to an unlimited amount of touches at once. Touch locations are determined with an accuracy of a few millimeters. Besides ongoing technical improvements, the Multi Touch Console will be used for interaction research. It is open to interested parties for test installations.
I was responsible for the case design in cooperation with Christian Bennat. We also build the case.
