ap plies for an internship
Dearest Reader, I want to give you a quick sight into the work I do and care most about. This portfolio is rather a little ap petizer than a complete impression of my versatility and skill. These are just some works I am quite proud of. For example the background here. May it subconsciously interfere with your thoughts. May it convince you to dedicate some of your precious minutes to me. Even invite me to your place for a cof fee, a chat and a job. Because I seriously want to work for you & I will give all my best to do so. Yours, Jakob

‘Research' is the current buzzword in the artworld. What kind of research is this? How is it undertaken? Does it introduce a new way of working? Artists, designers and theorists will explore these questions with their own work as a starting point. They will discuss the exchange between making and thinking, and the socio-critical questions art poses.The programme is composed of a keynote lecture and six short lectures.
Of course, people had to be navigated. So I placed 7 ino-Imacs throughout the building and designed handouts with practical information. It worked quite well!
