My friend Mike Kus release a lovely book a while ago and I can’t remember if I already pointed you to it. If I did, well, than this is the second time, but it is worth it.
The book comes with a mass of examples, but also:
[…] will arm you with a mountain of easily actionable tips that will elevate your photos to the next level. This book makes photography accessible to everyone.
Needed this. Still, and for a month now, ill. But riding is ok and especially if the sun comes out

Just over a year ago, after more than 20 years, I decided to change my previous business bank. The reason was that the bank I was with seemed outdated and offered few good online services. Everything seemed outdated and was als...
What is time actually? I got a little addicted recently and read a few interesting articles, watched documentaries and dug a little bit deeper into this topic. Those articles circled around questions like …
Why do we measure time?
Since when do we define our own time and do...
It was so beautifully sunny, that I went for the very first ride on my gravel bike. Just 2° Celsius meant, that for the last 2 years, since I got this bike, I wouldn’t have gone during the winter time. First of all I did not have the gear to do this and wasn’t sure what do g...

During T3CON24 last end of last year, Kendall Litton invited my to be a guest in the “Inside TYPO3” Podcast. We had a lovely conversation about events and the differences between bigger, more corporate events and independent events.
You can listen to the episode in the embedded player above, their YouTube page or any other player that supports RSS like Pocketcast, which I use.
Furthermore I got this whole podcasts transcribed and you can read the full transcription here (opens in a new window in case you started listening here already).
Last Tuesday, January 14th, I had the delightful honour to co-host the premiere of Eno, the documentary by Gary Hustwit and Brendan Dawes.

My task was to welcome people after picking their seats and introducing Gary to the stage to say hi. Later after the film has been shown, and that was the real fun, I lead a 30-minute Q&A with Gary and Brendan, chatting about the creation process, the idea and the technology of how this film was made.
I absolutely enjoyed this and next to co-hosting this, meeting with friends like Keir, Tobi or Brendan and Gary was a great start to the event year.
Same Q&A, but from further away. A nice shot by Keir Whitaker Reply via Email
When I got invited to the TYPO3 Conference 2024 to give a talk I thought “Why would my topic and what I have to say matter at a TYPO3 Conference?”. Well, I guess, my event is titled beyond tellerrand, so how could I say no, if someone running an event about topics not being ...
I am invited to speak at the TYPO3 Conference this week and have also been part of the jury this year. Thanks for the kind invitation! I knew it is going to be tough as it is conference seasons right now and we ran SmashingConf New York and Antwerp, I ran beyond tellerrand...
This is the last episode of by appearance at the devslove.it podcast. Alex, Dominik and I were speaking – in German – about education, why events matter for this and about the IndieWeb movement.
With this third of three episodes all three episodes are live and I want to thank Alex Bürner and Dominik Laube once more for the invitation and the lovely conversation.
Off to attend #feedesign in Vilnius which is not only a design festival, but also a meeting of 50+ event organisers to discuss, learn about and help each other with today’s pain points. Reply via Email
A short note as maybe someone does not know, like I did not know. Did you know that you can hold down a key on your keyboard in MacOS for special characters, like you can on iOS? I never tried this and certain characters can’t be typed.
For example: if I want to type the nam...

beyond tellerrand Berlin 2024 is over already again. I started this adventure in 2014 and much happened to the world since then. But the positive vibe at the event last week gave me a lot of hope.
Fact is that 2024 many things have been much, much harder for a lot of my even...
This was our second edition in Antwerp. At least for a while it will be our last one in Antwerp either. Well, at least in the wonderful Bourla Theatre as it will be restored for the next couple of years (the estimate is between 3 and 5 years). We are looking into other options for Antwerp, though, as we really like the city.
We run the complete show in Antwerp on my tech and therefore I am not able to take as many photos as usual, but here is at least a selection of photos from the days in Belgium. Reply via Email
I might have been slower during the last couple of weeks in replying to your emails. Well, the reason is, that I am on the road with the Smashing Team, running SmashingConf, been away with the family and am going to run and attend and speak at more events in the upcoming mon...
Here is my set of photos from this year’s Smashing Conference in New York.
We run this show since 10 years already. Always great to come back. Next stop Antwerp, then Berlin’s beyond tellerrand Reply via Email
What do events/conferences/design festivals/younameit mean to you? I'd be interested in a conversation.
Speaking to a lot of event organisers recently, one issue is one they all share these days: less and less people attend their in-person events. But why?
❓ Are people gener...
