Man steckt ja selber noch voll in der Inkubertät und dann ist plötzlich schon Nachwuchs da. Er tobt und kreischt, will Aufmerksamkeit -nachts, sonntags und im Urlaub. Vehaltensregel müssen verhandelt werden in Köln, Taschengeld festgelegt werden in Lissabon, Hausaufgaben betreut werden in Hamburg, Bewerbungen geschrieben werden in Zürich. Taufen werden eben nachgeholt und dann erblickt auch schon das Küken Sofia das Tageslicht. Das betahaus meistert die mehrfache Mutterschaft mit Bravour. Denn es hat ja an jedem Standort leidenschaftliche Erziehungsberechtigte.
Im betahaus| berlin wird also weiterhin die unbeschwerte Jugend zelebriert und nichts wird ausgelassen! Dann lieber ein Mischmasch aus Allem:
Am 27. August hosten wir eine interaktive Installation und eine Party, denn doppelt hält besser: die brasilianische Forró-Tanzparty mit Livemusik und der Start des „mishmashme“ Filmprojektes durch Europa. Der Filmstudio-Bus tourt ab Ende August durch Europa, anschließend geht es durch die Luft und virtuell auf alle 7 Kontinente. Am nächsten Tag findet die Abschlussveranstaltung der Ferienuni für Kritische Psychologie bei uns statt. Es folgt der 2. ODC-Markt am 4. September bei dem es diesmal eine Videoinstallation von KS12 gibt!
Ganz im Sinne des Misch-Masch ist am nächsten Tag am 5. September ein „KustausstellungsWeinprobenMnikonzert“ im Haus. Das betadinner wird 2 Monate alt, das Sandbox-Network belagert die 4. Etage, das betahaus vertritt Berlin beim PopUp Festival in Lissabon und der betapitch wird endlich eingeführt.
Die ‚Ausprobierphase‘ ist also noch lange nicht vorbei-trotz Nachwuchs-oder gerade deswegen! Wir sind alle sehr gespannt was alles noch spontan und kurzfristig ab September reinkommt und sind erstmal out of office.

Toni: Currently, we’ve somehow ended up in this niche of building a lot of internal tools for startups and teams. But this is not the only thing we want to do. What I like about it is that we’re starting projects from scratch and we have full control over them.
Martin: The first project we worked on was a tool for a large scale real estate development company. What they needed was a tool for their Sales people - to be able to mark their different spots and locations at different stages of the sales funnel. So we created a tool that helps them in this process.
Toni: And this one actually served as a starting point for the tool we’ve developed for betahaus, which aims to allow the Sales and Management team to see which team rooms are occupied right now, which ones are free or will be occupied in a few weeks or months, so no double bookings appear.
Alex: These two projects were more focused on real estate, let’s say, but we’ve also done more design-heavy projects like the one we did for Artique which is an online artists agency. For them, we built a whole website and an online system to present their artists starting only from their logo. It had to be very flexible, because the artists needed to be able to edit their own profiles, putting their resume, changing colours.
Toni: Honestly, we have skillsets that you don’t usually find in developers. Because we've had lives that were not just about computer science. I think to some extent this is what makes us different.
Martin: I believe one of the reasons why people pick us over other studios is because it can be very hard working with developers. If you’re not understanding their work, if the communication is not flowing, you, as a client can feel lost. We're easy to communicate with and we’re always open to feedback and we're open to discuss anything. In the end, after all iterations, if you say we need to start the website from scratch and that you don’t like the idea, we won’t take it personally.
Alex: Also, I think, since we all work as coding teachers, we are officially qualified to explain what coding is to people who don't code, which is actually really rare because a lot of developers, as Martin says, don't want to, or literally just don't know how to articulate what they're doing. Whereas we are trained in articulating what it is that we're doing, why it's meaningful and why it takes a certain amount of time.
Alex: Zimt & Mehl - the Turkish bakery around the corner. It’s just soo good.
Martin: Oh, there is this Italian restaurant called Ristorante del Arte
Tony: Oh, my God, this place is so funny. It looks like a pretty average Italian restaurant, but the whole interior design inside is just decorated in such a weird way. The entire place is covered in frescoes. They have crystal chandeliers and Easter bunnies. Some Greek columns. It has a different name on the menu, on the side and on the Internet. And it was an ex-shoe-store.
