My memory starts when I destroyed my father's laptop at age two. I pushed key combinations until it shut down and never booted back up. That was my first lesson in "intuitive" interaction.
Growing up, I was fascinated by things that lasted. I remember finding a Roman coin in a field near my Bavarian grandparents' home. It struck me: someone crafted this object two thousand years ago, and it outlived its empire.
Today, we build disposable software and neglect to preserve our data and memories.
My mission is to create a Digital Bauhaus:
technology that balances function, aesthetics, and long-term responsibility.
Whether I’m designing AI systems that make decades-old data usable again, or running social experiments
with deliberately provocative products like an esports wagering platform, I’m interested in one question:
what are we leaving behind?
I want to build artifacts that future archaeologists - human or machine - would be proud to uncover.
Technology should be meaningful, beautiful, durable, and serve purposes that current and next generations will continue to value.
