Creative Collaborations using Synaesthesia
I regularly advise other creatives—including book authors, screenwriters, app designers, and production teams—to help make their ideas more distinctive by drawing on my synesthetic perception. I translate how I experience sensory connections into creative input that strengthens atmosphere, originality, and emotional impact across narrative and design work.
Services include:
🎬 1. Concept & Script Development
- Early-stage consulting to shape tone, atmosphere, and sensory identity of a story or concept
- Feedback on scripts with a focus on emotional texture, rhythm, and sensory coherence
- Development of unique narrative elements inspired by cross-sensory perception
- Support in making ideas more vivid, memorable, and structurally distinctive
🗣️ 2. Scene & Dialogue Consulting
- Refinement of scenes with attention to sensory logic (how moments feel, not just what happens)
- Feedback on dialogue rhythm, emotional tone, and atmospheric consistency
- Strengthening character perception and emotional depth through sensory alignment
- Enhancing the “felt experience” of a scene for audiences
🎥 3. On-Set & Production Consulting
- On-set presence to support the translation of script atmosphere into visual and performative reality
- Guidance on tone consistency across acting, camera, set design, and sound
- Real-time feedback to preserve sensory and emotional intent during shooting
- Collaboration with direction, cinematography, and production design to maintain a cohesive sensory world
Specialist Legal Consulting
As a qualified lawyer (Second State Examination, LL.M. in Criminology) specialized in criminal law, criminology, and the penal system I work at the intersection of expert knowledge and storytelling—from script development to the concrete staging of scenes on set. My contribution focuses in particular on optimizing realistic investigative procedures, dialogue, and character logic. Services include:
⚖️ 1. Legal Consulting (Criminal Law / Criminology / Penal System)
- Review of scripts and concepts for realism
- Realistic depiction of criminal proceedings, investigations, and court processes
- Development of credible processes in corrections and detention contexts
- Ensuring consistency between the legal system and narrative storytelling
- Avoidance of common legal and procedural errors in crime productions
🗣️ 2. Scene & Dialogue Consulting (Script Development)
- Revision of dialogue (“A prosecutor would not say it like this”)
- Development of realistic interrogation and investigative dialogue
- Improvement of character logic (motivation, behavior, decision-making dynamics)
- Adaptation of scenes to real-life procedures without losing dramatic tension
🎥 3. On-Set Consulting & Scene Support (Production Consulting)
- On-set presence to ensure legal accuracy in relevant scenes
- Real-time correction of dialogue, procedures, and behavioral logic
- Coordination with directing, acting, and script continuity
- Ensuring consistent portrayal of police, prosecution, and courtroom scenes
- Support with last-minute dramaturgical adjustments during shooting

Study & Research
I´m giving lectures about synesthesia, highly sensitiveness and creativity. More than any other people, creatives and artists, who are blessed with having synesthesia, quite often don´t know that it is something unusual. Others are simply not aware of it, because of the fact, that synesthesia is something subtle and requires attention, a conscious moment. There is also a strong probability of having synesthesia and being highly sensitive (HSP).
Both traits are extraordinary conditions for successfully working as creative, especially for musicians. But as much as it helps to create ideas, synesthetes and highly sensitive people are in constant struggle to organize their (creative) lives in ways that match their oversensitive bodies. Without any self care and protection strategies, the world can quickly become too overloading.
I´m attendee of the 1st international conference "synesthesia and cross-modal perception", held at Trinity College in Dublin in April 2016, where neurologists and artists from all over the world presented their unique results about synesthesia. My upcoming lecture program "When music evokes colour - An introduction to synesthesia" not just presents all aspects of the trait and its famous representatives in music, but also focusses on protection strategies and health care for highly sensitive and creative people. Apart from lecturing, I´m also glad to answer questions for students and researchers.
