      Hello, I am Chris Woebken, 28 years and I am studying Design Interactions the Royal College of Art in London.

      I grew up in Hamburg and started an apprenticeship in Interactive Design at mme in 2000. The following year, I spend a summer in Santa Monica working in the Visual Effects studio method.

      Back in Hamburg, I continued my apprenticeship with Adobe working in an international team of engineers and designers. I completed my apprenticeship in 2003 and worked 3 years desiging future application prototypes and developing the tools I enjoy using myself.


      In 2006 I joined the Design Interactions course. Currently I am exploring how technology can address hidden human needs and affect our behavior and social relationships.
