Here are some fine links to websites of friends but also to some of my favourite sources for scientific and media news:

Enjoy indian massages with the power of Ayurveda in your own flat or even in the office. I designed the logo and the corporate design for the Berlin company.
Forget everything you know about scratching vinyls - these people from London do it with visuals, stuff from the giant BBC-archive and some of the best audio artists like Le Hammond Inferno, the Mellowtrons or Bauhouse in the scene. Check their site and enjoy - I did a very fast microsite and promotion materials for the distribution of their real crazy DVDs in Germany.
Two photodesigners traveling all around the globe starting to show their impressions to the world via blende-2.com. Just take a look at their brilliant photos from Cuba there! Greets :-)
In 2004 I won Photoshop CS by taking part in a composing-contest of Doc Baumanns magazine Docma. Its quite a fine ressource for hints and tips for creative work with Photoshop and the latest news in the scene.
Check it - whenever you need a very fine catering in the area of Berlin or Potsdam - Feinkost-Spehr is really the best address for each kind of delicious things.
Mayebe you are here because you are looking for him: One of the planets best 3D designers. Mayebe you know already his amazing awardwinning Peugeot 4002 concept. This is the website of Stefan Schulze (not me - we share a very similar last name - he´s without "ltze" in the end). If you need high quality 3D renderings, animations or product design - contact this man and you´re done. Greetings, Stefan :-)
:: Gausscontrol: Andrés on myspace
This is the website of Andrés Criado from Granada, Spain. He is also like me one of the platinum winners of the "International AGFA Young Creatives Contest" from 2000 - an excellent graphic designer and besides also a talented composer. Besides he created the font "rotula". I used it on the artworks of the DVDs "Ka Nalu Nui - The Ultimate Surf" (take a look at the "surf"-sign!) and "Interactive Karaoke". Check out his webpage to discover more.
Jenny is a really excellent photographer, has been traveled all arround the globe and spent several years in the states. She delivered the photos for my artworks to the sleeves for the DVDs cityimpressions "Vienna" and "Leipzig". Currently she´s catching scenes somewhere between Leipzig, Potsdam, Switzerland and the rest of the planet ... photoshootings, fashion, stills, people, impressive moments - "she´s got the look" :-)
I guess I´ll never surf - but I really like "Ka Nalu Nui - The Ultimate Surf", a film made by Daniel Optitz and his friends (greetings to all of you at ocean mind!) - a documentation beside the typical films about surfing. Very very impressive with a coooool soundtrack.
:: www.maege.ch
Do you speak german? Then check out this blog of a fine screendesigner from Switzerland: www.maege.ch. Its quite a fine source for interesting posts and weblinks, I just like it and visit it from time to time. Greetings from here to Switzerland, master Maege! :-)
In 2005 I meet Rudolph von Niederhäusern, a man who´s repairing instruments that others would discribe as completely destroyed and unrepairable. He told me
"If somebody brings me a broken violin, it will sound even better after I reconstructed it."
If you´ve seen him working, you´ll believe that :-). And he let me kindly take pictures in his studio in Berlin for my works while we were listening to some fine Jazz of Erroll Garner. I hope I´ll find the time to show some of these wonderful photos or some final DVD-Artworks (still in progress) with them here. Thank you for these fine impressions!
:: www.starclippers.com - luxury travelling under sails
Some years ago I had the honour to redesign the artwork for the DVD "ROYAL CLIPPER - A Dream Comes True". Its about the ROYAL CLIPPER, "The Queen of the high seas":
The largest and most luxury sailboat in the world.
Amazing: Its really green cruising - most of the time they are sailing on the hundreds of squaremeters sails of this 5 mast (!!!) ship. You will also find my artwork in the packaging design section of this website.There is also a BLOG by the ROYAL CLIPPER team. This beauty - the ROYAL CLIPPER - is a MUST SEE! :-))
:: stratacafe.com | Strata 3D
This is a quite fine page for the Strata 3D-community. You could also see some 3D renderings of me there in my members gallery. For anybody who has to visualize 3D packaging designs, info graphics or even packshot animations - Strata 3D is an excellent choice and my advise to you. All the samples in my 3D project area are done with this great piece of software. Thanx to its developers out there!
This is the page of Germán Olaya from Bogotá. He is also like me one of the platinum winners of the "International AGFA Young Creatives Contest" from 2000. And he is still winning awards like in a Heinecken beer bottle design contest or for designing snowboard textures for K2 (cool stuff, master Olaya!). Quite good work! This is just one link to one of all the others - I need more actual addresses, friends, just contact me :-)
:: VIVA CON AGUA - "Water is Life!"
To help can be soo much fun besides the good vibes - support VIVA CON AGUA. clean water for Africa. They change things, be part of it - support, visit one of the concerts or events. I had sooo much fun with them already ... spread the message :)

:: Cool Cosmos by the Caltech/ NASA
Some time ago I created a background image for the twitter feed of the project Cool Cosmos by the California Institute of Technology (CALTECH, Pasadena) / NASA. I´m simply happy about that. Cool Cosmos about their mission:
"The "Cool Cosmos" team is a dynamic group that has made its vocation to revive the interest, excite the dreams and hopefully answer some of the questions to satiate the public thirst for knowledge of Space." source
The latest news about astronomy, space and space travel.
Watch the latest images long before they got published in the special mags.

The official DLR portal. The website of the german aviation and space centre (Deutsches Luft- und Raumfahrtzentrum)
Amazing - this is a part of science fiction coming true in our days - Virgin Galactic will very probably be the first company offering space travel to private customers with a own fleet of ships. "Spaceship one" is already legendary. They already won the X-prize with that machine which reminds me very to one of the famous early NASA X-planes. "Spaceship two" should be the next goal. Just check their site and watch a piece of history right now - don´t miss it.
The right website for people like me to get my daily dose of scientific news beside spacetoday.net.
A fine scientific magazine in german language. The title sounds in german ears very dry but the content is really fine and written in an entertaining style. They have a quite good news overview about science.
Some time ago NASA announced to create a sophisticated space weather tool. But its already there. This is for me for so far the best source concerning spaceconditions around our spaceship Earth on its path. All actual information about sunstorms, Aurora borealis, comets, nearby asteroids ... opens your view to the global system much wider than a local weather service can do. Amazing.
:: GEO online
The german website of the magazine GEO
You´re just a part of it - a free project creating a map of life online.
