Wow, it only took me 4 months to upload some pictures from this years adventure to the craziest music/art/drug festival on the planet. Although this has been a breathtaking a experience indeed, it might take another 5 year to regain enough energy and money to go there again and do my own art installation.
Lots of space for everybody (who got a ticket) (2011) - Burning Man 2011
Excessive 2 (2011) - Distrikt Camp at Burning Mann 2011
The temple (2011) - Gamelatron was both: Pure kitsch and amazingly moving.
Fire & Water (2011) - Extrawelt at Fusion
Shady figures (2011) - Rain at Fusion
Dancing (2011) - Baba Zula at FusionWow, what a trip. This year was my second journey to
my favorite festival. Although, the weather forecast already scared the shit out of me, the rain was even worse than what I had imagined. Add temperatures around 10°C, and you sometimes wonder: "Oh boy, what am I doing here?"
However, the music was awesome as every year, and even if I'm too old for mud fights, they still offer the opportunity for some nice shots.
MFX II (2010) - Paris / Nokia N900Looks like I'm traveling a lot recently. Guess I am not going to heaven because of my CO2 balance.
Waiting for the next metro... (2010) - Moscow metroVery surprisingly, my company sent me to Moscow. I am quite amazed how much the city was not what I expected: Extremely friendly, clean and sunny. And expensive.
I played around with my N900 and was quite surprised by quality of the built-in camera.
On my way to Main-Party in Arles / France (2009) - (iPhone quality)The last weeks have been quite exciting. And with some luck I will survive the next couple of days. Most of friends already noticed that I started my first full-time job ever! In the Berlin office of Nokia I work on user experience for next generation's web runtime eviroment. This is a drastic change from my 10 years of freelance work.
But right now I am in south France, waiting for the delayed demo competition at Main Party. I spent that last 48 hours working on a release. After a short nap I will fly to Boston.
Life rushes buy, almost too fast to appreciate the details.

We just booked our flights to this year's
Function in Budapest. I can now relax from the stress of the past months, and work on my new demo projects. So, if things turn out fine, we might even release something. I am really looking forward to visiting Hungary!
