Five Quick Questions: Eike König

Five Quick Questions: Eike König

1. WHAT’S ON YOUR CURRENT PLAYLIST?

I don't have one, but the one my girlfriend Anne has every week is surprisingly amazing. I'm very old-fashioned when it comes to music, I buy an album and listen to it until it sucks :)

2. SOMETHING ABOUT YOU THAT PEOPLE WOULD BE SURPRISED TO KNOW?

The internet takes all the surprise, but I will become a father in December, and I'm shitting my pants.

3. A RECENT PURCHASE THAT YOU REALLY ENJOY?

Just bought a biography about Joseph Beuys and read it within two days. Also purchased the first things for our upcoming baby. Enjoyed the idea of looking into the future what I usually don't do.

4. WHAT HABIT ARE YOU TRYING TO IMPLEMENT OR GET RID OF AT THE MOMENT?

It's way too private if I would be honest. So don't ask those questions.

5. A BOOK THAT CHANGED YOU?

Joke: The Book of Life. Well, I read so many books, it would be hard and wrong to choose one. But it's not a book that will change me—it's my own experience.
