Who and/or what are some of your influences?

/>Vasarely, the absolute king of 3dgrafic-paintings before computers
came up, he made wicked styles and influenced me in my early days
also
picasso in his period of childish paintings wink
comics, most of
silversurfers adventures…
extremesports and the grafics of the equipment
(like skate-/snowboards, bikes etc)


What other artists
do you most admire?


seen kicks ass and at the moment i
really like the streetartstuff of “fuck your crew” basically i appreciate
artists working out new stuff without showing off…
the results count and
sure they depend on the daily mood (in my case).


How
would you describe your art to someone who could not see it?


/>Regarding the character designs i call it “stupid art”, funny toonz
for a little smile in the grey hood. The computer based work is a mix of foto-
and graffiti collages and 3d-grafics-styles, coming from sketchbookdrawings on
the desktop. In video installations I try to adapt this and mix it with my
realtime-film-archive to merge all interests to one output.

/>What other talent would you most like to have?

/>being lazy - it?s difficult to calm down when you have to many things
in minde - and also having a 7.th sense for lotterynumbers would be
great


What do you fear the most?

/>health problems and loosing good friends.

What
is your greatest ambition?


to invent, kicking ass and
get myself a step further by this.
