Projects

products & services, experiments & tinkerings

My projects are the result of decades of autodidactic learning. I love setting myself ambitious goals that require me to acquire new knowledge, so that I can then build on and expand that knowledge. To achieve this, I study examples, source code, references and specialist literature. This rather unusual approach allows me to gain practical experience quickly as well as unique insights. The result is a large and diverse collection, of which I present a small selection.

  • MetaPublisher

    Des Web-Entwicklers Wunderwaffe

    MetaPublisher supports the development of bespoke applications. By applying the Panathea principle, any data from any source can be processed in any way and presented in any form.

  • Panathea

    The MetaPublisher Principle

    The Panathea Principle aims for an unrivaled level of abstraction to interconnect arbitrary environments. Categorization of type, functionalities, and constraints of components follows a strict, yet easily expandable taxonomy. This in turn forms a graph, which used for path finding between components to identify compatabilities.

  • i-surf.de

    The curated World Wide Web since 1999

    Did you ever wonder what it was like to “surf the web” in the early days? No search engines, link directories, or AI to guide you… and without any idea, what was out there to find. What started as a small experiment became a decades long for fun project.

  • Zope.Love

    mit Herz und Verstand

    The Zope web application server remains indispensable to this day, thanks to its exceptional reliability and security. I continue to develop innovative extensions for the software to this day.

  • Color

    Perception, Utilities & Science

    Color is a fascinating topic that holds an unexpected level of complexity. This project is a collection of tools, resources, information and much more.

  • Phi

    φ = 1.6180339887…

    I believe that the use of the Golden Ratio in design and other fields is not only a convenient number system, but rather actively improves appearance and acceptance. My specialized calculator helps applying these numbers in daily life.

  • IconType

    Over 200 Free To Use Glyphs

    To fill gaps in the availavle offerings, I created my own icon fonts. I am currently planning a comprehensive overhaul and opening up of the project to promote and ensure its availability and further development.

  • lue I/O

    The Engine Room

    This infrastructure project is what makes the real magic happen. By providing a solid, reliable, yet flexible and adaptable foundation for my other projects, I can give my self a head start and a clear advantage.
