Posts about Gossweiler Media AG

Gossweiler Media–formerly in Brienz, Switzerland and since in Interlaken–was my first employer in Switzerland. I worked for the media house and newspaper publisher for seven-and-a-half years, designing and producing websites for local clients, whilst co-developing in-house content management system and newspaper editorial tools.

  • Photos from my last day in Brienz after seven and a half years with Gossweiler Media AG are now online at Flickr.

  • Photos of the desk at which I developed most of the websites produced by Mountain Multi Media in Brienz.

  • I was asked at the end of last week by the director of a t.v. show to come along to Männlichen, above Grindelwald, and take stills from behind the camera.

  • More photos from yesterday’s Giessbach Meeting in Interlaken are online at the German-language website of the local newspaper.
