Felix Petersen, born and raised in Berlin, has been busy with remote data transmissions since the late eighties and has been building things on the Internet since 1997.
Felix Petersen is co-founder and member of the board of plazes.com, a bottom-up approach to bridging the gap between the internet and the physical world. Plazes has been written and talked about up and down the media landscape and its supporters and developer community include some of the brightest minds in the space. Felix has had numerous appearances in publications like Wired, the New York Times and many others as well as being a frequent speaker at conferences.
Previously Felix has been busy founding Kinderfield, a radical new collective somewhere between insanity, art and media darling working for clients like Sony and MTV.
Later he joined the ranks of R.Ø.S.A., a Swiss-based Internet experience agency and Etoy spin-off, as Managing Director for the Berlin office. As Head of Experience Design and Creative Director for big agencies he’s helped BP, Siemens, Coca-Cola, Daimler-Chrysler and the likes to waste spent their budgets on all things internet. He does not like to talk about it.
He currently lives with his lovely wife in Berlin and enjoys things like food, cooking, media hacking and robotics. If for some reason you feel like finding out more, go to: beta.plazes.com/whereis/felixpetersen
