Hello everyone!



The last weeks have been amazing. New works, new relaunch and the final phase of two projects. Gaia is coming very soon (on August, 1st) and the Store is online now.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING IS NOW AVAILABLE

The next two big things are going to be Gaia and Desktopography. As you can read on Pete´s journal [link]
it´s going to be released very soon. And be sure to see my work featured this year.

I am currently looking for an animation artist to support me for the intro animation on Gaia09. If anyone is up for that please leave a comment here.
Jared and I also got the first Selected Edition print on the Online Store. I have to say it´s the first thing I hang on the walls in my room since I moved here.

So keep on joining us on Gaia09.us and have a great weekend!

Climate change and the conservation of our planet is one of the most important issues facing us today. A group of designers and themers have tried to find a way of contributing their own part. How though could a website about desktop customization help to combat global warming?

A mentionable majoritiy of co2 emission is produced by industry. Private households also add significantly to the problem by using multiple fridges, televisions, cars and - last but not least - personal computers. So what can we do to support the movement? With this project, we want to raise awareness for the issue and remind users of nature and its beauty. To remind you of shutting down your computer at night if it's not in use. To turn your gadgets off instead of having them on standby.

With this voluminous release of skins for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux we want to bring attention to the topic in the community and hope to make you think more about the issue and your own ecological footprint.

We hope this project will reach a lot of people. If you want to help us by writing an article, blog entry or a interview feel free to contact us!

After a long week of waiting and excitement all prints are set up now. I am very happy with them!

The paper quality is excellent. They will come on a 300gr thick Canon Pro paper with cleanable surface. Printed with high quality ink.

The limited edition will be available through the Sublevel.us online store starting 30th of may.   

I will surely post an update once it is online! International shipping out of your country (United States and Europe). Which means cheap shipping, no customer taxes plus short delivery times!

I would like to thank everyone who voted for the Shirt version on teextile.com !

Thank you very much and let me know if you buy one. I would love to see
some pictures.

The prints are almost ready to be released! We are just finishing the coding on the store.
There will be plenty of extras waiting for you!

Stay tuned for the next journal and thanks again!

Marius-
Good news are coming from the loDown Magazine. An exclusive print of the Systemkings series which will be released soon by Jared and me is exhibited in their gallery in Berlin in May. I am going to post some pictures of the two Berlin exhibitions in the coming days.

Now I have a small extra for all people living near or in Amsterdam. Queensday is coming soon and a fashion label will sell two of my designs on shirts that day in the city of Amsterdam. I am getting more details on that this week and will keep you updated.

So things are going great lately. I will try to find some time for personal work, too. I need to do some at all to finish my application portfolio for the University of Arts. I am getting really excited about the prints now! They will arrive this week and as soon as I have them I will provide you with some pictures.

Take care and stay tuned!

Best wishes

The Galeries LaFayette [link] in Berlin will exhibit my work "La vie en rose" until the end of April. If you are around, it would be wonderful if you visit them in the Galerie and write some words. Three of the twelve exhibited works will be printed and sold in their collection. If anyone has the chance to provide me with a photo that would be brilliant since I cannot join the exhibition because I am quite packed with work. Thank you!

And good news for all people waiting for the Print series to go online. The first collection of A3 and A2 prints will be ready by next week. As soon as possible I will provide you with first sneak peaks. I reworked all ten pieces for a special print edition. So things are going great lately and maybe we will meet at my upcoming exhibition in Munich later this year.

Best wishes and a great spring season

LaFraise currently hosts a contest which will be an innovation for their service. The winner will be the first digital print in their collection. I submitted "My broken heart" to the contest today.

Thank you for your vote, comment and support.

I´m recently talking to a cooperationist in the city for a series of new quality A3 and A2 Prints.
I am interested which works you would like to see printed, which you would like to have and
what size of print you prefer.

The Aethlet wallpaper, now on Teextile!

Journal Entry: Sun Mar 8, 2009, 1:04 AM
Vote for it if you want to get the Aethlet design printed!
So many people wanted a print of it or have it on a shirt.
Now we have the chance to make it happen.

Thanks!
