The Overview Effect

Posted on by


This album started as a small idea while I was recording songs in Hamburg and grew into something much bigger over the following six months. But I knew from the start that I wanted to play the piano more than the guitar. And while some songs are again very old, some were only finished during the making of this album.

Get it now on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and everywhere else.

Future-Proof your Product – UXcamp Europe 2017 (+ “UX-The Musical Nr. 5”)

Posted on by

My talk at UXcamp Europe, June 3rd 2017 in Berlin.

During the last few years companies approached me with always the same question: In a world of Artificial Intelligence and total automation, where does this leave our product? Where will we still be relevant for our customers? There is a playbook to answer these challenges and in this talk I tell you all about it, and how designers can and should work with Artificial Intelligence.

Plus, “UX-The Musical Nr. 5”. Big thanks to Gunnar, the UXcamp choir, and Marvin! And thanks to Katrin for recording. :-)
