some things will change here
Monday, 8. June 2009

… and so will I? Probably at least a little.
I’m going to India for 4,5 months, starting in August. This will lead to some different content as usual in this blog, feel free to unsubscribe if you’re only interested in my posts about design and technology. You’re more than welcome to stay or start subscribing, if you are interested in some travel reports and more personal things as seen here before.
The travel-posts will be in English and German for the time of the journey, so that also my family can stay up to date this way :) If I continue being successful in convincing, Mirjam will also give us some shouts from time to time, live from her internship at Auroville.

So, what are the plans so far?
Arriving in Mumbai late at night, traveling to Tamil Nadu in two weeks, because Mirjams internship starts there beginning of September. No more detailed plans yet, just some placemarks with interesting things in the south.
I hope I’m going to check some of them out… perhaps I’m also going more north… not sure yet!

Ready for the largest cultural shock in my life :)

PS: Yes, I’m there for holidays!

Rest in peace F12
Saturday, 14. March 2009

After 1,5 years of VJing, fair construction sites and writing diploma (!), my laptop keyboard urgently needed a cleanup. For remembering the positions of the keys I took photos.

keyboard cleaning: before

I continued taking photos because I really enjoyed digging deeper in the basis of the number one man-machine interface - besides it really looks cool.

keyboard cleaning: during

keyboard cleaning: during

Unfortunately I broke my F12 key during the operation… but as I’m not a Mac user, I won’t cry.

my flickr updated
Sunday, 1. February 2009

I recently updated my Flickr with a lot of analogue taken photos from the last half year, including New York, Bremen, Salzburg, Graz, and Frankfurt.

I usually announced posts of this kind with a bunch of thumbnails. But unfortunately my chosen method (a wp plugin) doesn’t work anymore. Any ideas how to insert flickr photos in a blogpost easily? Can’t imagine that I still need a plugin to do that?!

These Come From Trees!
Thursday, 8. January 2009

I recently discovered this little sticker on a paper towel dispenser in a toilet in New York:

It seems to work:

“Testing shows a “These Come From Trees” sticker on a paper towel dispenser reduces paper towel consumption by ~15%”
official website

It worked for me too, I didn’t use one of the paper towels and decided to let the air do the work. I ordered the large sticker pack, so be aware fast food restaurants and shared flat parties.
Please spread the project, and get a bunch of stickers for your neighborhood!

Search krone.at for current interpretations. Great fun! I wouldn’t wonder if there is an own Cordoba category.
Have a nice game everyone.

After a relaxing warm up today, node08’s intense workshop program starts tomorrow. I have the pleasure to host the Beginners Workshop B together with Kathi - if you cannot be there, you can check the nearly live streaming node08 flickr group for consuming some impressions.

Some pictures of the (successfull) Similar Diversity setup can be found here.
