Berlin, Summer 2026

Berlin seemed to be empty: in the morning, when I went to work by bike, there were nearly no cars on the streets between Kreuzberg and Neukölln, .. later on I went to the Synthesizer-Museum at Kottbusser Tor for a coffee and .. the doorbell did not stop to ring: Tourists from all over the world popping in to learn something about Synthesizers by playing around on them – WOW! Mostly it was another chaotic sessions on plenty of keyboards but some nice moments especially in the mixed systems room with Korg MS, Doepfer and more .. it was also a good possibility for me to have nice conversations with interested visitors .. and some good inspirations and ideas for my personal work, thank you.

Even later I stood on Kottbusser Damm to grab a little bite and .. the same: Nearly no grumpy inhabitants around, but plenty of tourists from all over, so Berlin seems to be attractive still? Have a nice summer everybody, wherever you are!
