Here you can find examples of my artwork, work and some fun bits, too. Oh, and the “(42)” does not refer to my age. I’m way beyond that. It’s just that you can find me at many places using either Quiss or Quiss42 as my user id.

I’ve been planning to honour a slightly more contemporary artist for quite some time.Here we go.

Does anyone here like beer? OK, this is one of the most famous brews worldwide. Almost. D’oh.
Mugs
25. February 2015 / 29. December 2023 by Ingo
I was aiming for something entirely different, but running out of time. So it had to be a simple “classic” again instead. Sorry, Juan.
5. December 2014 / 10. March 2023 by Ingo
20 years of cFos… …this is quite some time. Funny conincidence that one of my all-time favourite computer games is exactly of the same age: Day of the Fossil… …err Tentacle
25. December 2012 / 24. May 2024 by Ingo
For some time i wanted to add another one of my favourite shows to this collection. This year was the year. Welcome to South Park!
25. December 2011 / 29. December 2023 by Ingo
This mug is done in the style of Leonardo da Vinci, right up to the mirrored hand-writing he used for his texts. “Practice random kindness…” ist not actually hidden, but just translated into Italian. The additional text has been taken from our Italian “traffic shaping” page.
25. December 2010 / 29. December 2023 by Ingo
Is there one among us who doesn’t know these little bricks from his/her youth? So, another classic. See the cFos crew pursuing their daily business.
25. December 2009 / 24. May 2024 by Ingo
When searching for this years topic, i was interupted by my daughter asking me for a version of Pac-Man for her Nintendo DS. Search completed.
25. December 2008 / 10. January 2024 by Ingo
Futurama – one of my favourite TV shows. Too bad it wasn’t a crowd-pleaser… …but definitively a nerd-pleaser. After being shut down infamously by broadcaster FOX it resurrected as a set of 3 DVDs and after this being successful on the TV screen as well. Halleluja!
25. December 2007 / 10. January 2024 by Ingo
The two towers. Should it really be about these two (Barad-dûr in Mordor and Orthanc in Isengard), or maybe something else?
25. December 2006 / 10. January 2024 by Ingo
Resistance is futile! Of course an hommage to the Star Trek series (TNG rules!) and especially to the Borg.
25. December 2005 / 10. January 2024 by Ingo
And now for something completely different… The original images and animations for the BBC series “The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy” have been done by Rod Lord. They’re not computer generated.
25. December 2004 / 11. April 2024 by Ingo
Another visit at the surrealists – on of their most famous members is probably René Magritte. The mug is based on his images “La Connivence”, “La Grande Famille”, “La Chambre d’ecoute”, “La Condition Humaine” and – last but not least – “La Trahison des Images”.
25. December 2003 / 24. May 2024 by Ingo
After the short trip to the world of science fiction, it had to be something of a “higher cultural value” again. Since the release of Douglas R. Hofstadter’s book “Gödel, Escher, Bach”, computer scientists appreciate the artwork of M. C. Escher, if not earlier. So this simple adaption of his well known “Metamorphosis” images suggested […]
24. December 2002 / 3. April 2024 by Ingo
Why not trying an entirely different type of classic? Still one of my favourite movies – this means the first/original one only…
24. December 2001 / 3. April 2024 by Ingo
No pop art this time, but a well known image nevertheless.
24. December 2000 / 3. April 2024 by Ingo
Another classic piece of pop-art that had to be done. And perfectly fitting with the shape of a mug…
24. December 1999 by Ingo
Pop art the third… …this time a mug. After having failed with the “Lichtenstein” design one year before, it had to be done now. I think, I’ve found a way to put all the necessary items into it – the name “cFos”, the “Practice Random…” line and the “42”, of course.
24. December 1998 by Ingo
The second Pop-Art T-Shirt. First, I planned doing a Lichtenstein based image. I already had done some sketches, but none of them really worked. Neither the company name nor the “Practice Random…” line could be integrated into them in a smart way. Then I saw a Haring poster hanging on a wall and it took […]
24. December 1997 by Ingo
For quite a long time I didn’t have a good idea for the next shirt, so I decided to follow the motto “I recover my property wherever I find it”. Actually, I liked this kind of playing around with a pop-art classic. So I decided to do it the same way for the next years.
24. December 1996 / 14. July 2022 by Ingo
The first in a series of T-shirts and mugs for the cFos Software GmbH.The printed version didn’t look as good as expected, the printing company wasn’t able to get it done properly. Not that hard to figure out, if you know some German…

Diversity is. Actually, diversity is one driving power of evolution. Everyone not feeling comfortable with this should have a look at this little piece of art. After having noticed this “posting” (I think, I was sent there by a Wired RSS entry), I couldn’t resist translating it into German.

6. October 2020 / 9. March 2023 by Ingo
This is the silliest game I’ve encountered for quite some time. A big Thank You goes to GameTwo (in German) for pointing it out to me.
29. November 2017 / 17. January 2024 by Ingo
This is a really weird game – and I love it. Elaborate artwork, crazy dialogues and a slick gaming experience. This is how you do it.

Broke my first Ultimaker when trying to install the dual feed extension – it is still to be repaired… …lazy me. But my wife was able to convince me that I definitively need the new Ultimaker 2+ as a replacement. This machine is an incredible step forward compared to the first version – I love […]

Not much to say about this game, except that it is awesome. It does everything right and is just sheer fun whenever you log in.
3. July 2014 / 5. February 2024 by Ingo
The bigger version in the background is made from stone and way more detailed. So much about the T.A.R.D.I.S. now. So many other things to build…
24. March 2014 / 17. January 2024 by Ingo
The Doctor is in the house. My first try on building a Tardis in Landmark. Still a bit small.
