” I decided to design viruses, from the gut, without too much artistic aspiration. To #calmdown, against #corona, against #feareatssoul.”

“Ich habe mich entschieden Viren zu gestalten, aus dem Bauch raus, ohne allzu grossen künstlerischen Anspruch. Zur #Beruhigung, gegen #corona , gegen #angstfressenseeleauf .”

The first order in 3D: Actually, I’m supposed to write and illustrate an article about mobile working for the magazine “das büro”. My suggestion is to make something the office of the future – Work 4.0. – is happily received and implemented by me. A fictitious test report on a fictional VR product. Only the attentive reader can see that everything was invented by me. Even friends ask me: “Did you really have an implant implanted in your head? Awesome!” The test report and everything around it can be found here.

Der erste Auftrag in 3D: Eigendlich soll ich für das Magazin “das büro” einen Artikel über mobiles Arbeiten schreiben und illustrieren. Mein Vorschlag doch lieber etwas zum Büro der Zukunft zu machen – Arbeit 4.0. – wird freudig aufgenommen und von mir umgesetzt. Ein fiktiver Testbericht, zu einem fiktiven VR-Produkt. Dass alles von mir erfunden ist, wird nur dem aufmerksamen Leser deutlich. Selbst Freunde fragen mich: “Hast Du dir wirklich ein Implatat in den Kopf einbauen lassen? Krass!” Den Testbericht und alles drumherum gibt es hier.

In the beginning there is an ocean: information, technical challenges, tutorials, the agony of the right ones? – Choice. At the beginning: The decision to learn 3D – in winter 2018. It took me until May 2019 to make the decision which software I want to work with.

Although I am an Adobe influencer and work almost exclusively with the Creative Cloud applications, I choosed Blender. Why? First, there were and are the most online tutorials. An extremely crucial point for me. Second: Blender is open source software, I think, a good thing that I would like to support (and I am very grateful to be able to use it!). Blender also has a large, committed and personable community.

In the beginning a donut – the donut. In August 2019, I took a two-month sabbatical and started with the donut beginner tutorial from Blenderguru Andrew Prices. Then an ocean, more precisely an ocean scene. An excellent tutorial by Zacharias Reinhard that – over-reaching – almost overwhelmed me. But my fascination with 3D has increased enormously and has given me a completely different perspective on the online media world, a completely new understanding.
