i want to present you an interesting person, who probably will work together with PLATOON in future ...

kaspar koenig (born in 1975) is a dutch inventor-artist, now living in berlin and maastricht. he studied industrial design at the UdK berlin.

now he designs goods for daily use - like ties or moneybags. interesting thereby is that he uses special materials like mr. bend (a flexible handle for utility goods, which can be adjusted by hand, which can be used for many devices, including toothbrushes, dentist mirrors, ...) and recycled firehoses in a really delicate way! and in addition koenig makes sounds, where he invents innovative "instruments" like soundbikes (creating acoustic extensions for the bicycle sounds). the soundbike workshop by kaspar koenig was some weeks ago at the Udk berlin.

furthermore he composes soundpieces for (dance) theatres and recently he also started working as a lecturer at the cafa beijing.
