My friend Bernhard Cella is mastermind behind this arts (theory) project.
I supported him on graphics design and information architecture and realized the website as a multilingua CMS WordPress.
Brushed 2beta release date
To all pleasure seekers:
I’d liked to release early this time and I’ve really tried hard to get a beta-version of Brushed going for you as a little present right on 24th.
But I didn’t succeed as I got ill a few days ago and changes between the code base of Firefox 1.5 and 2.0 are more difficult than I’ve suspected (tabs are completely corrupted at the moment, no tab-closebutton to see at all).
I’m lookin forward releasing before New Year’s Eve, although I’m an optimistic person in regards to release dates. Working digitally and being optimistically time-wise seems to be a contradiction in terms sometimes. ;)
Schöne Feiertage!

I’m quite sorry that I haven’t got the version update ready yet. Read more
Fight against Comment Spam in WordPress
As some might have noticed, this blog was down for several hours/days in the last few weeks.
The reason for this was COMMENT SPAM.
In the beginning (around 6 months ago) I thought on getting along with it without countermeasure. But spam rose to a climax of about 30 per day. I’ve received somewhat 1000 unsolicited comments, only two of them were published – by accident. This is due to the very well-done comment-handling tools in WordPress. But I like to know what people are writing on my site, so I am getting an e-mail whenever a comment needs approvement. So it got an unbearable situation.
Solutions: Turing-Test, collaborative fight?!
