SPL KLN
Currently, I am the CREATIVE DIRECTOR at SCHAUSPIEL KÖLN, a contemporary theater at the intersection of performance, visual art and multimedia.
I was responsible for rebranding and and now oversee the continued development of the SPL KLN brand under the artistic direction of KAY VOGES.
Kay and I have been working closely together since 2019, including five years at VOLKSTHEATER Vienna, where we developed numerous disruptive video campaigns.
My work as a Creative Director started with supporting local bands I admired – through music videos, album artwork, promotional clips, and PR stunts to promote their upcoming releases – all of it DIY, self initiated and produced without any real budget.
Later on I started working on commercial campaigns – for brands like YAMAHA, MCDONALD’S and T-MOBILE. At the same time, I always supported politically driven projects with NGOs and initiatives I believe in.
If I had to name one project that is especially close to me, It would my campaigns for DIE BIERPARTEI.
Together with MARCO POGO, whom I have supported artistically since the early days of his band TURBOBIER, we hijacked several political campaigns with videos, memes and PR-stunts, until we suddenly found ourselves holding actual political offices in Vienna.
Et voilà.
