Recently something strange happened: I wanted to ride my bicycle but nothing worked. The gears jammed up completely, the chain only went backwards, I was completely annoyed and had to walk. A day later I checked my bike again. It was Christmas and everything worked perfectly again as if nothing had happened. It was like new-born, on Christmas! Wow, I could ride my bike again. And I thought to myself: What's this all about? Has Jesus slipped into my bike or what? And I started to think about matter and non-matter.
I studied visual arts / experimental film in Berlin. Fell in love with my super 8 camera (Nizo) in 1988. Since then I try to be a particle-finder, a wave-catcher and a good story-teller. I try to absorb weird beautiful things from this world. Chew them and spit them out again.
