Knödel

For as long as I can remember, I have enjoyed expressing my own impressions and fantasies - both acoustically and visually, which is reflected in the Institute's interface. I am passionate about the ability to convey moods and the photorealistic representation of CGI that blurs the line between real and virtual. With my resulting background as a VFX artist, I am particularly interested in new workflows and technologies at the institute. The focus here is on 3D real-time visualisation and the addition of extended reality to make the creation of impressive projects even more efficient in the future.
