This section showcases projects from my recent academic work. This includes projects from my own studies and the results of my work as a scientific employee at KISD from 2022 to 2025.
Modulator
The Modulator is the Ableton controller I always dreamed of. I designed and developed it over a 2-years project as part of my live techno set. Any parameter in Ableton can be mapped to the Modulator. It can then be overwritten with precise control (2048 steps) via a high-torque knob on the controller and smoothly […]
Making (Non-)Sense Workshop & Paper
As part of my work at KISD (2021 to 2025) and within the joint research project about the interplay between AI and design (gestaltung.ai) I developed a workshop with my colleague Rahel Flechtner from HfG Schwäbisch. It was held in 2023 both at the HfG Schwäbisch Gmünd and here at KISD in Cologne with students […]
Unfolding Space (Paper)
The Unfolding Space Paper In the summer of 2021 I conducted a study about the Unfolding Space Glove. In January 2022 I finished my Master’s thesis about this study. And in February 2022 a paper came out at MDPI, that now reached over 30 citations. Paper Abstract This paper documents the design, implementation and evaluation […]
Unfolding Space
The Unfolding Space Glove allows blind or visually impaired users to haptically sense the depth of their surrounding space and thus (hopefully) better navigate through it. The device was drafted and developed within the framework of a four-year design research project. In 2021, the prototype was tested in an empirical study with 14 sighted and blind […]
