another (but refreshing) visual reflection of my endless love for music through stop-motion art.
Initially, the image sequences were supposed to come with a more electronic music sound, but listening so much film and other classical music in my free time and during touring, finally convinced me to expand my horizons.
Working several weeks on a 57seconds stop-motion video with classical music, gave me a sense of satisfaction i rarely felt before. Awake but forever dreaming.

music: La Verdad from Manel Santisteban and Iván M. Lacámara (La Casa De Papel)
continuously trying to push boundaries and set new horizons to event documentation. this is my photographic interpretation of last Friday where Time Warp celebrated living legend and inspiration Sven Väth’s birthday, through my eyes in #stopmotion photographs.
awake but always dreaming. free from everything and everyone.

mid-rave for the very first time in Norway. Unforgettable and intimate warehouse scenes from New Era in Oslo from last Friday in #stopmotion photographs.
The trust i keep receiving to do what i love, free from everything and everyone, is beyond imagination. Awake but forever dreaming.

awake but always dreaming..
after developing, growing and pioneering as a photographer in a challenging and constantly changing world of techno-oriented music, the time has come for a new direction.
free from everything and everyone, i continue to reflect myself and my love for music through photography.
making mistakes, delivering at the highest level possible and staying my absolute reserved self is part of my ongoing growing process which has led me to goals i only dreamt of ever since i began this journey.
i’m beyond delighted and proud to receive an opportunity to explore new dancefloors with @subfocus starting next weekend at Tomorrowland. A childhood hero and absolute legend in the Drum And Bass universe.
this dream never ends..

emotional weekend ahead:
from a sweaty, intimate and real rave with one of my favourite artists @klangkuenstler at one of my favourite places in Germany @gotec_club

awake but forever dreaming.
beyond proud to see my work as a photographer continues to set new horizons and standards to nightlife documentation. animating my photography and combining this with my love for music has become spiritual and defines my hapiness as a full-time photographer and thus person.
too shy to dance front-row, so i dance through my work.

awake but dreaming into new chapters..
beyond grateful and happy for my last summer’s new experience and journey as a nightlife photographer.
21 times together with the one and only @solomun at Pacha Ibiza.
a new journey lies ahead where freedom and passion are the keys.
an unfinnished dream where i continue to set new horizons in nightlife-documentation using my hearth, soul and signature stop-motion creations.
first stop after Ibiza: Solomun By Day at Ziggo Dome.
my fear to express or expose myself in life is real.
social anxiety is one of the foundations of my work. it’s so much more then a call for attention or fame.
im too affraid to show my admiration for Techno so im trying to show it through my creations. it’s my therapy and my key towards hapiness.
