Lilmoxie

At Modularlab we are currently creating the new Online Store for Lilmoxie, a Detroit based company specialised in the distribution of sports memorabilia and breweriana. In this context I am developing a bespoke Zen Cart Template.
Sine Wave
- Type: Application Module (Java Applet)
- Build with: Processing
This interface module was originally part of an interactive room installation created in 2001. Back then I had used it within an application developed with Macromedia Director where it would control the behavior of other interface modules.
Now I extracted it, cleaned it up and threw it into Processing.
Click and drag your mouse in x- and y- direction over the wave to change its amplitude and wave length.
BMW iDrive
- Type: Application for Installation
- Build with: Java
developement of an interactive interface for an installation featuring BMWs new iDrive. The task had been to trigger a user sitting in the driver seat and to connect this event with the video presentation. For this project I programmed a Java application which controls video playback through sensor input. The installation had been exhibited at worldwide auto shows.

Translating Irritation into Information
How does information in digital media develop? How can sufficient potential for generating information be ensured for the future so there will be further development of knowledge? A theoretical model on information design based on the principles of modularity, analogies and selforganisation and applied to an interactive installation.
The installation was exhibited at Merz Akademie Stuttgart in January 2003.

German Emigration Center Bremerhaven
Studio Andreas Heller asked me to join their team of architects, designers and historians to create a center that would revolve around the history of german emigration. One of the main objectives of this project was to make emigration experienceable for the visitor. My duties included conceptualisation and design of interactivity.
Shown here is an information exhibit I designed.

Since I am one of the partners at Modularlab our online presence is also my playground to experiment with interface concepts and technologies. Shown here are our actual (very reduced) version, our new Blog developed with Wordpress and the one previous version.
Modular System
- Type: Application
- Build with: Flash / Action Script
With Modularlab we created a modular system thru which we develop dynamic design and communication solutions for our clients. We use this application to visualizes the modular system and to generate the right design and communication structures together with the client.
I developed the application to run fullscreen on our local computers in Flash Player. Since I try to avoid using Flash for online projects, I also wanted to test Flash for its potentials in replacing Macromedia Director to create such applications.
Daimler Benz – Innovation
Jangled Nerves (Stuttgart based agency for media space design) contracted me as part of a team to create a mixed-media installation on the history of innovations by Mercedes-Benz. I was involved in the conceptualisation, historic research, creation of visual and textual contents, storyboarding and project management. The installation won a 2004 iF Gold Award.

Schmaelzlicht
- Type: Interactive Room Installation
- Build with: Director (Lingo), old keyboard taken apart and resoldered, Midi controlled mixing board and more
It is dark. A person enters the room and becomes a light source. Light and person form a unit. On its own the unit is unstable. It strives towards an interference, calls for another entity. A second person enters the room and merges with light. This unit is also looking for another entity. If they find each other they can create an interference.
1.FC Koeln Museum
concept
