- Autorenportrait
- Ulrich Weinberg is no stranger to digital change. During his studies in art, design, art history and philosophy in the 1980s, he experienced the advent of digital technologies in the media first-hand. Early on, he concentrated on digitally produced pictures and films. As an assistant to American experts, he developed the first computer animations for the German broadcasting houses ARD and ZDF. He founded several media companies and produced globally successful computer games. Beginning with 1994, he served as professor for computer animation and vice president of Germany's largest media university in Babelsberg and accompanied it on its way from celluloid to bits and bytes.In 2007, he took a sabbatical in order to establish the School of Design Thinking, a sister institute of the Stanford d.school, at the Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam. Here, he not only prepares students of all domains for a networked world of thinking and working, but also an increasing number of managers from all industries who are looking for a new orientation. Weinberg regularly travels to the Communication University of China in Beijing, which he also accompanies as a guest professor on its way to the digital change since 2004. Since 2014, he serves as voluntary manager of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Qualität (German Association for Quality). In 2015, he co-founded the WeQ Foundation. The father of two children lives with his family in Berlin.
