While people think about getting to Mars these days, 2.000 years ago, the Greeks were thinking about steam machines! One in particular, Heron of Alexandria (c. 10-70 CE), was very inventive and developed (maybe the first) steam engine! A true genius that is. While he invented a lot of other things, one of his inventions […]
Not all models are the same. When we create 3D visualisations, we build (model) these virtual data in a way, that is helpful to us when creating stills or animations. Sometimes, we build only certain views and sometimes we need to be very exact when we create our models and add a lot of detail. […]
The visualisation of the pre-dynastic center of Uruk is actually nearly five years old, but we never put it in our portfolio. Due to our new design, we also update our project list, even if the projects are a bit older.
Here is a small preview of our animation currently to be seen at the exhibtion “Ramses – Göttlicher Herrscher am Nil” in Karlsruhe, Germany. With this, we wish you all a merry christmas and a good start into 2017!

Here is a first preview image of the visualisation of Piramesses, the capital city of Ramesses II. We are visualising a whole island full of houses, vegetation and at a later point also people. This is a very first draft and will change eventually, but you can have a first look. It only shows a […]

[ylwm_vimeo height=”258″ width=”458″]146555829[/ylwm_vimeo] For the ongoing exhibition “Ana ziqquratim” in Strasbourg, we have created two animations. The first one being an overfly of the Anu Ziqqurrat of the Late Uruk Period (2nd half of the 4th millennium BCE) and the second one being an overfly of the Eanna Ziqqurrat of the Ur III Period (21st century […]
Finally, we can release our latest project: The reconstruction of the Great Hall of Karakorum. This medieval Buddhist temple was built upon a complicated terrace, but read for yourselves on our portfolio page. Oh, and there is also a nearly 8 minute long animation explaining the site, terrace, conservation management and reconstruction! The visualisation of […]
This project was completed last year and I finally found the time to bring it online. Building E of Uruk is one of the biggest buildings of the ancient city and most certainly one of the most interesting ones. Check out our description and more pictures. Building E on artefacts-berlin.de
This is the last missing part of our Uruk exhibition material. The reconstruction of Uruk during the 3rd dynasty of Ur was actually a long finished project, but was enriched by a loose, lifelike reconstruction of the city for the exhibition “Uruk – 5000 years of megacity”. You can read everything about the project on […]
