ABOUT
The journey started in 2012 and Mazetools became a catalyser for many thoughts
and experiments about the combining of geometric visuals, cymatics, color-note
connections, sound synthesis, futuristic input methods or projection
possibilities...

The release of Mazetools Soniface 1.0 in May 2017 has been made possible
through a scholarship from the EU, the german federal state of Saxony-Anhalt,
diligent testers, institutions AND of course our mentors, friends and
families, who all gave us positive feedback. Thank you very much!

Many enthusiasts are certainly looking for specific pro features. Because we
want to be cross platform useable few things still need some time! Currently
we're just two guys with families and we are independent (no ba, vc or big
company behind). Our story is characterized by passion and you're welcome to
support us :)

Stephan Kloss (idea, design & development of Mazetools) and Jakob Gruhl
(operative, support, mediator) met in 1999 as teenagers making Hip Hop and
electronic music. Now, 20 years later, we have the pleasure to produce and
perform with our own tool, what still feels unbelievable. So, enjoy all the
demo content we put into Soniface!
