This website used to be all about music

The world has changed, but as it keeps on turning,

let’s talk about music as well as other important things in my life.

I fly paragliders

Because only flying is better

Life didn’t end for me during the lockdown – it was quite the contrary.

I spent even more time in the mountains than before, hiked a lot and gained more experience with paragliding.

Some of my hike & fly adventures are documented on TikTok.

I make things

The mountains and the time that I spend there also have an influence on the things I create.

Like the Mountain Earrings that you can order here and the panoramic cutting boards, that I can make for you as a custom order for the spot of your choice.

My main tools are a laser cutter and a 3D printer.

If you own a laser cutter– which I believe should be a fixture in every serious household – you may enjoy downloading and making one of my designs yourself. They’re available on Etsy.

Recently I came up with the idea for an optimised smartphone stylus solution for paragliding.

During XC (cross country) flights, smartphones are the #1 instrument to avoid restricted airspaces and get further information about your flight or stay in contact with fellow pilots.

As it’s cold up there and you need thick gloves, but still have to operate your smartphone every now and then, I came up with a minimalistic but efficient solution for a problem many paraglider pilots are facing.
