I do explore the topic of interaction in art and design.

All began with a virtual tug-of-war with one side of the rope in Weimar and the other one in Los Angeles and a exhibition platform for interactive art providing equal experiences for present and telepresent visitors. Together with six artists I explored the social behavior of six vacuum cleaner robots. In an old bell tower Franz Höfner and me were bringing back the experience of pulling the bell rope, creating a bell-rope-pulling gesture on a mobile phone.

In fact most of my time I do more "serious" work, looking for answers to the following questions: How can we help families to facilitate every day organisation? How can a large amount of people participate in decisions? How can connected devices in a smart home make our every day life a bit more pleasing? How to create a soft-phone, accessible from every device? How can travelling and shopping be easy and comfortable? How can we organize the processes around production more efficient but more flexible in an industrie 4.0? How could we use block chain technology to create self-organized agencies, cities or networks of self-driving cars? How should heating work today?

No matter if you call it interaction design, service design or experience design, it is always user-centerd and holistic.

My four day week leaves me enough space to teach aside. I currently do so in Dessau and I did before at Weissensee, Weimar and UDK. And I am the co-author of the art cookbook “12 Farben, 12 Menüs“ that shows 12 monochromatic menus. Together with artist Franz Höfner I won the 3rd price of the competition “Motion Picture 2.0“ from ZKM.

I would love to do even more, so please contact me whenever you see an opportunity for collaboration. I would love to organize workshops or to participate in exhibitions.

Have a great inspiring day, Tim.

And finally, I understand five languages but I speak them way to seldom. Any idea how to change that?
