Kreek Prototype 2.1
Kinect controlled Interface
Kreek is a Kinect controlled interface which extends a normally
two-dimensional multi-touch environment by the perception of depth.
This allows the user to literally reach into the interface and gives
applications the possibility to interprete parameters like pressure or
solid distance.

“Anamorphic Mirror“ opens up the conference and brand area in the Deutsche Banks headquarters in Frankfurt. The installation is located at the end of a staircase. Consisting of a faceted mirror and blue light projected onto the opposite wall, it reflects the Deutsche Bank’s logo when viewed from the sweet spot. Standing at the bottom of the stairs visitors initially see seemingly random blue reflections on the mirror’s individual surfaces. Through their own movement visitors then generate a filmic perception: What they see changes with every step. As they get closer, the reflections begin to take shape until they resolve into the banks blue logo upon the visitors reaching the stair head.

“Chrono-Shredder
The machine as performer.
Chrono-Shredder (2007-2012, various iterations) is a poetic device that reminds us of the volatileness of the »now«.
A device with with functions similar to those of a calendar and a clock, it continously shreds every single day—minute after minute, hour after hour. All that time that is irreversibly lost, obtains a tangible existence in the form of shredded paper. As time passes by, the tattered remains of the past pile up under the device.”
