Here are some of the publications and theses I have written over the years of research, and the projects I have worked on. The majority focuses on sound and acoustics, but some older stuff concentrates more on graphics, volume rendering and NPR. There is also my Diplom/Master's Thesis, as well as my internship report. In a hopefully not as far future, maybe my PhD Thesis sits right on top of that list. If you are having difficulties downloading some of these, please contact me. Please contact me also if you have any questions or comments.
