World
Tonight I am probably the happiest person in the world. Around 7 pm I had some friends over for dinner. Daniel van Hauten, John Franzen, Steffen Kraska and I were chatting about usual stuff till I mentioned my frustration about the disappearance of matandme.
They came up with some ideas about how you could probably fix the problem and Steffen even said that he will have a look at the page… Now, about 3 hours later the blog is there again! Tomorrow a professional meant to have a look at the problem…
Maastricht-based Steffen Kraska is a 3rd year Fine Arts student. I just told him he shouldn’t become an artist, because the IT world is waiting for him. I mean, if they don’t wait, I do. I want him as my personal emergency technician.
Thank you, Steffen Kraska.
Hm.. I just tried to upload a picture, which isn’t possible., I am receiving this message: Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at/k .. webseiten/wordpress/wp-admin..in … on line 342.. There is still some stuff to improve but at least the blog is back. YEAHHHHH.

pecha kucha: I didn’t hear the sound of conversation

london
last saturday I went to the global pecha kucha for haiti night in the university of westminster in london. I have been at some pecha kucha nights and have even done a presentation (see below) last year in maastricht, nl.
when you think about london you think about a big city where creativity and design happens. but on saturday I was slightly disappointed about the organisation of the event. It meant to be be one of the pecha kucha network cities taking part to raise support in haiti but maybe 70 people appeared. I am aware of the fact that they just had 2 weeks to prepare the event but I just was hoping for a better result.
some people told me that design journalist max fraser and dezeen-founder marcus fairs brought the first pecha kucha to london in 2005. apparently these nights were sold out, unpredictable and funny. I mean, the idea is to to meet, network, and show work in public, isn’t it?
a good and funny moment was the unexpected skype call from tokyo-based architects and pecha kucha founders mark dytham and astrid klein, who thanked everybody for supporting the architecture for humanity project. I just checked the website. $5,692.60 are raised so far from all cities and presentations. hurray!

Herdecke
Some of you might wonder where Herdecke is. It’s a small town, located south of Dortmund, Germany.
I am with my family am in Herdecke right now. My brother and I had a little photo shoot the other day, because my parents asked for a nice picture of both of us. It’s not really our usual look. The idea was present them a staged portrait in a conservative look.

NO design miami for me
written by

its not really a design related post. it is a personal one.
I am very angry today, especially because I meant to collect some good content for my blog at design miami in miami. I had loads of appointments and drawn interviews planned out. I mean, the great and good of the industry gather for this event. me and my friend robert andriessen from designguide.tv wanted to do some video interviews. and now I can’t go. I couldn’t fly to miami today because my passport is not valid the next 6 months. that’s it. it is valid now. enough for most countries. maybe it’s my fault because I didn’t realise that earlier. but why did I recieve a visa aproval from esta? I mean, I have been in america before. never had problems. sure, it’s annoying that they are asking so many questions at the airport but that’s how they are, the americans. they want to know stuff. the consequence is that I officially decided to never watch an episode of american dad anymore. I probably will have a weak moment about that when I can’t fall asleep next time but I will try.
thanks wallpaper magazine for the image. I stole it from your website. I really wanted to take good pictures in miami but what happend today made me a thief. : )
