I investigate systems.
Software, tools, knowledge, and older systems when their inner logic is worth testing.
based in Northern Germany · working in public since 2026
Now
Building
- Sextile
- this website and the tool that publishes it from the vault
- small tools for recurring problems that are annoying enough
Studying
- system administration
- medicine and Heilpraktiker material
- Hellenistic astrology
- I Ching
Working toward
- reliable income
- technical depth instead of constantly new breadth
- publishing more of what is actually being built
Deliberately not doing
- starting more projects just because the side path is interesting
- rebuilding a tool when the existing tool is enough for now
- taking in more material than can still be integrated
Current work

Sextile calculates astrological charts locally and records the derivation so result and path remain separately inspectable.
