about simon and the site

Hello! My name is Simon Zirkunow and I’m your host for this site. You can reach me here: simon·at·bluesmuse.de

I’m a designer. One job description for that might be: “Translating content from one group to another using shapes, colors and lines.” Currently, I’m working on my Master’s thesis in Communication Design in Konstanz, Germany. Previously, I studied in Schwäbisch Hall and Portland, Oregon.

This site is supposed to be an ongoing experiment, a discovery trip. I have no idea what’s going to happen next — so I invite you to stick around and find that out as we go. And I’m curious. Aren’t you?

I am allergic to most blossoms, some animals and the typeface Rotis.

I also have a soft spot for Robert Longo’s Men in the Cities.
