Since the beginning of social media, it has been easy to share special moments with the world. But as quickly as images can be shared online, they are also forgotten. That is why PICKMOTION founder Lorenz Hartmann tinkered with the idea in 2013 of how to use digital content beyond a quick like. In collaboration with Instagrammer Marius Bergmann, the first postcard "Life is Konfetti" was created: a snapshot of a Berlin street festival. It captures a joy of life and lightness that has characterized the company ever since. Ten years later, Lorenz and Marius take a look back in an interview and talk about past challenges and successes, but also visions for the future.
