Sparkassenstiftung Ostalb Honors three Alumni
The graduates Katja Widmann, Felix Cordes and Jeremias Lange are honored by the Sparkassenstiftung Ostalb.
Alumni Felix Cordes and Jeremias Lange were able to impress with their Master’s project „Beyond Visual Design“ and received the prize money, a certificate and the Ostalb Oscar last week.
With their project, Felix and Jeremias focused on multi-sensory experience. They adapted products visually, by increasing the contrasts in color, but also haptically and auditorily so that people with visual impairments can also use the products, as they can fall back on other sensory perceptions as an alternative.
Alumna Katja Widmann received a special prize for her Bachelor’s thesis on „the capco system – capturing choreography“.
The capco system is a dance notation system for choreography in classical ballet and is primarily aimed at teachers. It can be used both manually and via Tabletapp.
With the capco system, classical ballet exercises can be written down and visualized without continuous text. It differs from existing dance notation systems, which are designed for the notation of complete stage choreography programs, and is primarily aimed at teachers. The capco system replaces the most frequently recurring terms from the repertoire of classical ballet with symbols and figures. Arranged in two lines for the upper and lower body, it can be read from left to right, similar to sheet music, and also contains relevant additional information such as bars and beats.
Both projects were honored last week. The graduates were presented with their prizes by Markus Frei, head of the savings bank, and District Administrator Dr. Joachim Bläse.
