  • All projects

    Since 2018, we have implemented a number of open source projects with open cultural data. Some of these web applications, such as Plantala or Demokratie Erleben (Living Democracy), were created as part of the Coding da Vinci cultural hackathon. Since 2022 we have been realizing projects as Digtalwarenkombinat. Here you can find all our completed and ongoing projects.

The projects of Anne Mühlich and Gerd Müller are a great enrichment for the Coding da Vinci cultural hackathon. With each participation, those two prove their creativity and their sensitive handling of open cultural data and the institutions behind it - as evidenced not least by the Coding da Vinci scholarships with which they have been awarded several times.

Philippe Genêt, project coordinator Coding da Vinci

Anne Mühlich and Gerd Müller have achieved fantastic things with the sources of the Archive of the Workers' Youth Movement within the framework of the cultural hackathon 'Coding da Vinci': an aesthetically pleasing, technically flawless and target group-oriented homepage on the Children's Republics of the 1920s! But we are not only convinced by the creativity and professionalism of the team, but also by the uncomplicated and constructive cooperation.

Maria Daldrup, head of the Archive of the Archive of the Workers´ Youth Movement

With Plantala, Anne Mühlich and Gerd Müller have accomplished something wonderful: presenting open cultural data in a software and aesthetic language that ties directly back into the analog. Great fun with great value. Thank you!

Karsten Heck, Göttingen University/ Forum Wissen

The collaboration with Anne Mühlich and Gerd Müller as part of the cultural hackathon Coding da Vinci Nieder.Rhein.Land 2021 was inspiring and worked smoothly even over distance. This collaborative work was a great experience and I am very proud of our result.
