I am in Japan right now. Walking a lot. Done Osaka, Kyoto and Nara so far and just arrived in Tokyo.

Finally this acrylic and aerosol beauty from SheOne arrived in our office. Thx James and Bread & Butter

A flyer made for the lovely Sick Girls and Beatproviders. The party sounds like the perfect Friday night entertainment as Drop The Lime from NYC is showing up.

Spend some quality time in Switzerland. The movie works pretty perfect as screensaver or for meditation.

Da is mir doch mal glatt meine Kiste abgeschmiert. Aber dafuer sogar richtig aesthetisch. Screenshots gingen noch, deswegen hier ein Beispiel. Kiste laeuft wieder nach restart. Vielleicht sollte ich oefters mal den Rechner rebooten - denke es lag am randvollen cache und die Grafikkarte kam nicht mehr hinterher weil die komplette Creative Suite unter Volleinsatz am Laufen war.

I received a gold award for the album art work of Culcha Candela. Their album hit the 100.000. And their first single “HAMMA!” which I also did the cover for has gone Platinum in sales. Thx Culcha, Universal & Homeground.

See more pictures of Thailand at my flickr account.

Now also bloggin’ at Artschoolvets. Check out the nice Site with all the News and the cool Shirts here.

I been very close to shutting down the site with an “under construction” or “back soon” note tonight. The actual design and shown work online here doesn’t really represent my current output. But as I am really busy with all my other projects I thought it would be a better idea to leave the site running and to try to update it bit by bit. So stay tuned for 2008 and expect a newly refurbished NoMoreSleep Site as well soon.

After my Cover for their Gold Single HAMMA and the album artwork Culcha Candela will release their 2nd Single EY DJ today.

I am right now in London. On my way to a meeting this morning i passed my GEIST font on bricklane. Nice to see my work on walls in London.

For more of my work and News please check the NoMoreSleep Site.

I am off for some research in southeast asia and won’t be around till the beginning of october. See you then.

Because of all the current jobs and recent work it is quite difficult for me to keep the news updated here. I am eagerly tryin’ and expect some info on the artwork for Culcha Candela, Jimi Blue and more work here soon.
But to get an insight of what’s happening right now please visit NoMoreSleep™ - our combined collective of creativity.

Once again I did all the printed matters for the liveDEMO event. Find the posters and flyers all over town. Also watch out for the Slide installation on location. Really looking forward to seeing CL Smooth.
Also check out the newly redesidgned website of liveDEMO, provided by yours truly NoMoreSleep.

update: added some of the slides i did which will be seen as slideinstallation during the event.

last minute request.

Barcelona was great but I am happy to be back at the NoMoreSleep headquarters in Berlin/Torstrasse again. Currently finishing work for Universal Music (Urban and Pop), VIAUX, Ecko Unlimited, Ingo Robin and BREAD & butter. Check back for more info here and at NoMoreSleep.

With the BREAD & butter Barcelona only one week ahead I can now say that the redesign for the website is fully finished and final goals are reached.
The site comes with big flash movies in the header to assure virtual and emotional support for the real tradeshow. We stripped down the whole design to access important information fast and easily. An RSS feed is available now, locations are instantly displayed with the google api in the flash header, you can book your flight, hotel or rental car via the online booking tool provided by american express and the brand bible online section has been redesigned.

Really looking forward to the upcoming BREAD AND BUTTER BARCELONA. If you are also there come to the SPORT & STREET area on Wednesday when I will be playing some of my favourite tunes with Alex and Jeff Staple.

NoMoreSleep™ is happy to announce the launch of ingorobin.com for the 28th of june. It’s gonna be a very special flash site with very nice functionality and lots of extras to play with. A really nice portfolio for Ingo’s great pics. We really would like to thank Martin Fleck (flash programming) and Marcel Eichner (backend and admin) who pushed the whole website and made all our wishes come true.
Get more info about Ingo robin and other projects in our NMS™ RSS-Feed. Also check out the preview on IngoRobin.com please.

Endlich, nach viel konzipieren, gestalten und vor allem programmieren, sind wir jetzt im finalen Status bei Ingo Robin’s Seite angekommen und sehr stolz, am Donnerstag launchen zu können.

Die Seite wird einige Features haben, die nicht ganz alltäglich im Business der Fotografen-Seiten sind. Und mit Martin Fleck und Marcel Eichner haben wir auch die - in unseren Augen - beste Kombination aus Backend- und Flash-Programmierung für das Projekt gewinnen können. Mehr Infos gibts im hier ab Donnerstag oder auf ingorobin.com.

You might wonder what it’s all about with NoMoreSleep™. So I tell you. Torsten and me saw the special need to come up with something fitting our output. So we introduced NoMoreSleep as creative conglomerate for our combined projects in march. We also found ourselves a nice headquarter in the heart of Mitte - Torstr. 201 that is. And since march the client list grew and the team got bigger. We are now six people working hand in hand for print and web solutions.

And if you want to know what’s happening in the NMS headquarters and its surrounding planet you better make sure to subscribe to our RSS-Feed. There will be no blog or any other output on the never sleeping website - just the NoMoreSleep RSS Feed.

NoMoreSleep™ seit kurzem mit Headquarter in der Torstr.201 in Berlin-Mitte. Um zu erfahren was so passiert, wenn man gar nicht mehr schläft, haben wir ein RSS Feed eingerichtet. Nein, kein Blog. Nur Feed.

Wie in jedem gutem Feed gibts Tipps über/gegen das Schlafen, aber auch interne Infos, Previews auf Projekte und natürlich offizielle Ankündigungen. Und Sachen die uns bewegen oder den wir einfach gut finden.

Soon online in full functionality. Another NoMoreSleep online project which is gonna be a very nice html, javascript site with a handcoded CMS and admin by our lovely japanese NMS™ counterpart Thomas Michelbach. See the preview at viaux.com to get a glimpse of what is coming next.

GEIST is making the round. Really glad to see that is used for a lot of music I like.

Lately seen at NT89 and Al Haca. NT89 used GEIST KNT for their logo. Download their latest Remix of Justice’ D.A.N.C.E here. Check their myspace for more downloads.

Also seen the GEIST RND on Al Haca’s myspace profile and Alex of Sick Girls told me Al Haca used the font for their cover of their next album. I am excited to see that.

Again for 15th floor club Berlin. This time I created an new font. Always wanted to have one with nice round shapes combined with some bling.
Note to myself: Should get all recently made fonts ready as TTF and for download.
