The story actually started
I had one for a long time
I live my whole life
not forgotten
I was sitting up as a very small child
my father’s arm and my mother
stood next to me and we were in
Hospital and also a kind of booth
next to it and then it was like that me
had heavy tumor and yes I have
then felt so nonverbal as the doctor
and of course my parents are scared to death
and and hopelessness is spraying
have and the whole thing happened a lot
nonverbal so on a level so so
not at all with words
describe it and it was one of those
The first moments I have in my life
could hold on to life and this
moment was so formative for me that
I only realized many years later
but that’s what I’m marketing right now
it has nothing to do with me
but the level on which I practically
at that time, as a child, that was perceived
was completely separate from what I am
practically felt around me
and yes of course I have many
years chemo and that was then
everything not quite well developed
and also radiation and yes the whole
was just a very big strain
it never came to me so this whole
Treatment has always been that way
I really could say it myself
I do not really have that
perceived but for me it was
normality and
so then I lived just last very long
hospitals and became too today
always very sick because of course
that everything is a very big strain
I had the big trust and had it there
I was eleven years old so really
25 kilos and for me was the largest
Women actually race ad
and yes I persuaded mine then
mother and yes it took a long time
I could prevail because no one
could imagine that and I think
just to ride a bicycle race and that was
so that I was always the last
of course I was weakened and that
whole was of course another
ordeal
but I realized that I was what I am
actually in the disease
I actually experienced that
actually go on cycling
actually could actually yes
to meditate in me and mine
to let imagination play friends too
have and yes actually with it then
to live the last I became
It never was one to me
big yes how should I say
It’s a pity there to be the last one, but one
Of course he still notices that then
was not taken to cycle with you
one at a how one should say that
abandoned ridicule and well
and that was just me
did not let my dreams take over
and this dream like every child when he does
somehow wheeling races then wants
then, of course , the tour de france
with drivers and who was the dead woman
then, of course, another goal with 18 or
19 me the first time your first
that has happened at some point
after seven incredible years last
and
But then this was the bike for me
drive actually complete so
my body was strengthened so i was
how should I say
I am physically healthy again
never really sick again
and cycling was like that
I lost a bit of that charm
I’m always running away and
down if you run yet central bank
but I knew I would never be so good
be that I stop the tour de france
can ride
then came in 2010 1996 jan ullrich
won the tour de france and yes for
That was the topic of this topic
tour de france became ever more present and
I realized that the intuition me
somehow she said I have to somehow
ok for the tour de france as a driver
though not
So I have my own concept
done and have my own idea halt
and then I’m with 11 models and
make up and assistants then to the tour de
drove france and we have then
practically that suggested there
and of course that was at the beginning
absolute no-go because that did not exist
and that does not fit into this normal one
photo grid 1
and then we have the first ones
made photos and then it was a day
Huge success and was also
suspected worldwide and then I was
handy in this whole tour de
france story and then i became the
private photographer of jan ullrich and was
So practically the only photographer of the
jan ullrich really also in the
was allowed to accompany the preparatory phase and
by the way, this picture is for the stars
So we came up with this picture
then on the cover image of the star had
and that was just the right one yes
driving school and in the
moment has fallen asleep because he is so
finished this stage was yes and that
decisive thing that I felt
is that the intuition sometimes many
It takes many years to have dreams
the one has just realized and yes at
It took me almost 15 years to do that
25 years until then stop that occurred
is me and then the tour de france
I came to learn that
also photograph self-taught
it was so full of me
passion in this topic
I went in without me now
any qualifications I had
have it all i have my world
as well as I did that
actually wanted to see it then
stop synonymous s.den pictures and yes at
this picture is just like that
this is just other sports photos
were and that bastian schweinsteiger
2008 before the football em and then find
me the stars
chief editor said yes
I would like to do that and the
said the lawyer who completely stupid
because three months or four months ago
The football em will become a bastian
Schweinsteiger no longer color prints
and there is also a whole
nice video that you can see that
that is not post production but
that’s really real
there are only bath together yes and
after the sport so also that one
unfortunate end had with jan ullrich bin
I then more and more
then to fashion photography
jumped over or stop here too
art photography
that was one of my best selling
pictures and then there can also be there
two worlds together at the beginning of the
post production and then we have that
keep the rest of the veil old
posted on it and it is one of the
become best selling pictures of me
in the gallery after all this stuff
then came more and more and this
interest in this document terry was what
I’ve done sports in the sport too
to make music
and again that was so intuitive
it has not a network when you
there is no music photography and it was
then I’m very close
the whole band was on it and they stopped
often accompanied everything
on chester bennington the unfortunately
this year died and yes this one
scene is also very exciting
as guests once said he does not like any
people and I have four hours
I was there we hugged people
and put them into practical something
I also say a scene now
which is so impressive from the
archive comes
[Music]
[Music]
yes we had a lot planned and chester
and unfortunately it is unfortunately very
sadly ended that is one of my
That’s why I wanted that
stop show so it’s just
an eerie feeling one feels in
every second of history if you
of course with his band is traveling
and when one stands on stage
you know that you are a total sharpened
Everybody has everything
minute every second actually absorbs
and for me then it was always then
Again, this overlap with
this intuition and all this
opportunities which I myself then somewhere
but then so synonymous
So how should I say that ?
I did not have it at some point
Enough so the artistic was
exhausted and I really wanted
describe a little bit what that
theme is what i always or always
how I did it or why
I practically always stop in too
other area managed so close to
get hold the people
and at some point this project is gone
vw over the way
the vwa central is so that’s it
organ in the eye what the light absorbs and
this organ has the fantastic
possibility so it’s not just that
light picks up but to a picture too
So everyone needs to generate it
We think of it as rational
So people experience what we as me
so to speak, and I perceive this
but need something else and that
not the intuition so in each
instant in which we pass through the world
we practically need the
intuition to create a picture and
Of course that was a fantastic name
So projector for such a very simple one
philosophy and
yes , you can maybe do all this
So that ‘s what we describe
perceive in all things
This rational world is somehow
such a bottle of cork on the
bottle that is the rational and the
all possibilities so all that
We have possibilities in this
world and what actually as potential in
slumbers that is actually the
content of the bottle but we leave that
not out but we mourn
actually only the cork but not in the
content and yes that was for me
actually the basis of this
concept that is of course not a new one
philosophy but it was just about it
that in simple words and to grasp
virtually taken my life in the basics
a little bit as well
to take demonstration for like that
something can work
yes and so we have so many
problems in this world and in the world
we always try to be rational
to set up organizations against something
be
but in the end it is actually
just a single story namely
to find solutions and this solution in the
actually put into action
and yes, that’s actually the one
the solution to the whole story is
actually to change the world
you need a bit of courage and you have to
just do it
and yes I believe quite simply that the
everything we hold in this world
create is intuitive
emerged and not from the head
but first through the thoughts and
then through the deeds and when you do
then just look in the world
it really seems to be that way
conversely, I think that is quite complete
sure it’s not the truth
corresponds to
Of course, I thought about it for a long time
What can I do as a photographer?
this idea and this philosophy
a little bit around the world
and I knew I have to do something
make me as what photographer
Of course, also close and yes me
then just have a picture mark
designed ignorance pulse caregiver because
Of course the ignorance is like that somewhere
that’s what really keeps us from it
the intuitive
to find perception in ourselves
if I’m ignorant then I play
no empathy and if i can do something
feel then I’m not too
about an intuitive perception
perceiving
I have many celebrities then
By now I think I’m almost 350
asked world stars to do so and
that ‘s how so people have been there
exit or the grandson of nelson mandela
but still many many other sex pistols
pastors and here also a few Germans
tim bendzko and so on this campaign
then became very fast, especially in a big way
From the datasets we have over
10,000 people a year in about
photographed so everyone could use it
make my server played over we
then had many stars but me
I have not quite made it on
to get the road I knew
must first let that flow and it
somehow had an idea that the
just go slowly through the world
wears yes and then I thought so
okay there are no flags the photo studio
and therefore at least no double-decker bus
of which is converted into a photo studio
that was again such a belly feeling
I probably bought in
madness biplane bus and that was
then a real cave
I had then tried crowdfunding
not working so I stood with it
a biplane bus that is not
was rebuilt and then we have
started to saw out the blanket and
to rebuild the whole bus
we do not expect that
the tüv spits us into the soup and well
I then had a bus without a TUV and
without that you could stop in inner cities
which of course did not make the thing
but I wanted to stop at the bus
also drives and luckily
We then found camera sponsor so
also the whole thing came back to me intuitively
I just did it and that’s it
is done is it just happened
that the bus is out there now and
actually ascends course was in
No one drive so I have a bus
take a driving license and now I am
also bus driver exactly
ohso bus driver of course also with 65
kilometer because faster drives there
We do not because you are on Berlin city bus
and no overland bus naja 2018 should
Now this journey begins and the idea
is really that we go to rock festivals
that we really drive around the world
So it was really about the world it was
actually planned that we with
linkin park
to make the concert in the ley
We take the bus from Hamburg to Halifax
shipped and then we would be there
seattle driven and yes unfortunately that is
then it does not happen but it will be new
things just and I’m sure
that this journey around the world like
I will also have the exciting
next year so nothing
I would like to conclude another one
say something very crucial for me
So we always talk a lot about it
racism over asylum seekers and so on
and for the ultimate is in the
intuitive it is just so rational
it is so that we are all ourselves
different from a doctor I am
photographer the next is housewife or
or something else and in the end
is it so that we are ours, so to speak
the picture is what characterizes what we just do
but in the rational of us see in the
moment motives, we are all the same
intuitive we all have the same
Potential in the intuitive we all have
the same possibilities and we
That’s how we differentiate between 0.0 percent and me
think that’s the fantastic thing
actually so in these experiences the
I did
