Inspired by games where 3D characters walk around in 2D images (games with “Pre-rendered background”) such as Final Fantasy VIII, an engine based on JavaScript to develop such games for the web browser.

The exclusivity of Apple products is reflected in the structure of the main building in Cupertino, SF – a ring like a bastion with the function of a cloister. In line with the iMac and its intercompatibility, the 1st Book of Maccabees also points out how dangerous it could be to open up to the foreign (similarly to the Book of Ezra, which propagates “the purity of the holy people”). Hence this cynical game, in which the player must maintain the “purity” of his people.

Applying functions of interpersonal relationships to NPCs. Original concept: Something with dialectics

An affirmation to say “Hello” on the street in C++ and Java. Simulated virtual citizens, represented as colored circles, walk through the streets during the day and greet each other, exchanging colors.
The colors of those who communicate mix together. Groups form. At night, the citizens go home (each is randomly assigned a house) and regenerate their own color.
The recipient has the option to observe the simulation or take control of such a citizen and playfully steer them.

A small 3D engine for the Linux terminal can connect to the program as a client and render the houses from the first-person perspective of a citizen (with citizen selection and minimap functions)

Proposal to make gender selection fluid in role-playing games.

Germany drinks too much – virtual “drinking” is healthier than the real alternative.
Proof of concept.

Other areas of responsibility: Research, pipeline tool development, asset creation, and consultancy.

My most significant contribution was the decision to implement PBR shading into the Source Engine:

For the “Fun Palace” at the Rundgang 2017 at HBKSaar in the media theater; creation of a protocol for communication between Processing and Unity and a mapping of VR controller data to the media theater.

Gray Zone is a video effect that makes objects disappear when they are not moving. Moving objects are visible in real-time and reappear as ghosts after a configurable time span.

Gray Zone was showcased at the student art exhibition “Rundgang” at the Berlin Weißensee Art Academy in July 2015 – presented as a time machine (middle frame) and as a possibility for advertising (side frames).

We tested various use cases, such as for advertising, recognition of micro gestures, surveillance, games, and the potential for artistic expressions.
