It’s my first post on Hive: a few photos, and some everyday notes from my new corner of Denmark. I’m here to learn how this community works, trin for trin - Schritt für Schritt - and to share a mix of life, AI ethics, and digitale Souveränität. Thanks to 
Most mornings start with my dog Tamika (queen of side-eye), cat Loki (mischief manager), and three Laufenten (Indian Runner Ducks) on slug patrol. If the wind is kind, I’m out kayaking on the Flensburg Fjord; if not, I’m in the garden, losing gracefully to weather and weeds. I’m also actively learning dansk in a sprogkursus - små skridt, a little every day.
This is Loki pretending to be a good cat... ;o)
I recently traded more city noise for a hygge corner of southern Denmark. It’s slower here, greener, and the sky puts on a different show every hour. I do miss big-city buzz - concerts, Kicker (table foosball), festivals - but this pace has its own rhythm. And at least I still made it to Wacken 🤘
Helpful farmers against the mud.
I’m mapping new routines: morning coffee with ducks, and neighborly chats in a mix of English, German, and hopeful Danish. Det skal nok gå.
Not long ago they were cute ducklings :)
Housemates & small chaos
• Tamika - chief cuddle officer; suspicious of spreadsheets; photogenic by accident.
• Loki - name says it all;
• The Laufenten - snail taskforce; strong opinions about lettuce and dogs.
(No ducks were hurt in the taking of this picture. Dog's pride was hurt a little.)
By day I'm a professor for business and work on ethics in AI. What matters to me is keeping things understandable and usable for people outside the tech bubble. Digitale Souveränität feels essential: tools and rules should help everyone / mitdenken & mitentscheiden about AI, not just watch from the sidelines. I’m into low-threshold learning - plain language, practical examples, and room for questions.
I teach, research, and build practical formats for education, healthcare, public sector, and entrprises. I love my job.
I’m looking forward to exploring the community here, learning how things work, and finding good corners for AI ethics, digital sovereignty, and everyday hygge life.
If any of this resonates: hej and tak for stopping by. I’m happy to swap ideas and compare notes. Looking forward to meeting more of you.
Hejhej :)
