Prelude – an audio visual ode to coffee
Prelude is an ode to coffee by one of my favorite magazines: Life & Thyme (I’ve already reported about them here). Now they’ve created this beautiful short film. They have been inspired by a phrase from a poem of T.S. Eliot. And the poem is called “Preludes“. The result is actually a collaboration between […]

Behind Third Wave Wichteln
This year we started the second round of Third Wave Wichteln. André, Tho and me have been in constant exchange over the whole year to prepare this year’s coffee exchange. The first round was impressive and made us really happy. Although it has been quite rudimentary, it was a huge success and many people […]

The aesthetics of coffee making
This morning I brewed another cup of coffee. The sun was shining through the window onto the white kitchen counter and onto my coffee equipment. Today I was using my Chemex. And then I just realized how much I love the whole thing about making coffee. If you think about it, it’s quite simple. […]

People were wondering what this was about. Then he created collections of these tweets (the first time I realized collections on twitter). The result was a […]

Good bye Foursquare!
BIG UPDATE (2015/03/19): Since Foursquare Update 8.9. lists are back and very prominent in the app. I am really happy about it. Foursquare actually never left my iPhone but now I am back using it several times a day. Everytime I receive a recommendation for a restaurant, store or place in general – it will […]

Minga
Two weeks ago I was visiting my friend Norbert in Munich. He started his own startup, Mr. Signal, a while ago and since I like Munich (or Minga how Bavarians call their own city), I had enough reasons to fly South. Munich always feels like vacation. It is calm, it feels southern. Well it is southern from Düsseldorf […]

Beats, Meats & Buns
I am deeply in love. You know I like burgers, music and especially something that is made with passion. A thought-through project with care for details. Something you see and you think: “Yes, that’s fucking cool.” That is exactly what I thought when I found Three Buns. Three Buns is a burger joint from Jakarta […]
