Erik Westrup

Problem Solver, Creator & Practitioner

Hi, I’m Erik Westrup, a creator and practitioner based in Berlin.

This site is where I share writing on technology, creative projects, and the systems behind digital craft, from web applications to minimalist tools.

I also write about Buddhism, reflecting on how practice, ethics, and mindfulness shape daily life and modern living.

You’ll also find selected personal projects, a small art gallery, and ways to get in touch.
