Daniel studied painting at the Universität für Angewandte Kunst in Vienna in the 1980s and, back in Berlin, gained recognition for his "Ginelli Dump Art" assemblages immediately after the fall of the Berlin Wall. He worked as a DJ, ran a pop-up discotheque, participated in theatre projects and organized weekly talent and dinner shows. He later explored the world as a location scout for film productions and commercials. And after a subsequent 18-year career as a visual research artist, Daniel now showcases his skills as an AI artist. He is also the founder of the fictional city “Kaltstadt”.

Daniel lives in Berlin.
