Hi all,
IJsfontein is working on an english version of the website. Here's a bit about our company that we use on our channel www.youtube.com/ijsfontein :

"Erwin Bauer KEG is a Austrian design agency, located in Vienna, Austria. In addition to local customers, such as the Vienna Museum, the Agency has also worked for major international operating company, as Schenker." (about Erwin Bauer - www.erwinbauer.com)
OK, the Dutch text is a bit BS. Here is my humble translation.
Heading: "IJsfontein (= Ice fountain) applies the power of interaction by realizing the targets of customers."
Vision:
"Successful interaction is extremely valuable. If you go through something, you won’t forget this for the rest of your life. In a dialog you show more of yourself than you would in a monologue. If interaction is successful, it will enable our customers to enter into a personal relationship with their own target groups.
Interaction also assumes action. If you desire a certain action from your customers, some knowledge of those users / customers is essential. Setting up interactive concepts requires a certain degree of knowledge involvement with your customers. A characteristic of the interactional concepts of IJsfontein is the [ inhoudelijke verdieping (= increase of knowledge and involvement of users / customers. ]. To go through [ inhoud ], the [ inhoud ] will take root and we will achieve the targets of our customers."
Explanation:
So what they do is helping companies to set up strategies that will enable them simply to make their products accessible. Take a look at their examples.
Thanks for sharing these websites!
For example, if you have an art museum and you want children to come and see and really experience the art you can hire IJsfontein, they will then help you analyze and make a solution of how to let those children experience the art. Maybe they’ll advise you to make sort of games, video’s or whatever.
oh sorry... my fault..
its not dutch, its german :)
"Can anyone please translate the "About" for us?!."
It's indeed Dutch, the text which tells about them:
"ijsfontein is specialist ... Doelstellingen te bereiken"
Nice series!

Regarding erwinbauer.com:
There is no "about" page on the site. There's only the "imprint" with contact details and how to visit their office. It's an ad and marketing agency.
But here's a quick (!) translation of the text on the start page:
"We're interested in people with real demeanor. Most of the times this is the initial charge for a creative collaboration. The basis of our communications work is to explore, understand and formulate identity in all its facets. Only after this we'll convert it into self-contained and successful appearances of text, picture, sound and space."
The "about" page is something like this in Dutch:
"Ijsfontein is specialist in interactive communication. With 'playing, learning, discovering' as starting-point and interaction as a way to reach content targets"
Great weblog guys!
