Hello there!I used to be a full time VFX artist working as compositor, 3D artist, producer and supervisor.
These days I am mostly home-bound due to health reasons, so my focus is mostly on tending to my family as the resident cook and doing the occasional remote work for film and TV projects.
You can find my work history on IMDB or LinkedIn and I do have a rather old showreel on Vimeo. Apart from that, this is my online home. Feel free to get in touch via email or on Micro.blog.
At the Church in Living Color concert tonight.

AI Coding
After reading about GitHub Spark I felt inspired to see how good programming with an AI works.
So I set about using Claude 3.5 Haiku to write a little Python program that archives a give URL as PDF, Markdown and saves a bunch of metadata along as well as summarizes the page with GPT4.
It took a bit of noodling and back an forth with the AI to smooth out the functionality and the errors I got. But I didn‘t code anything myself. Only copied and pasted a few code corrections here and there that the AI gave me.
And it works. I think I will continue on this path and make my own version of Archivebox.
Today my water rower arrives. I can‘t wait to set it up.
I prepped the first one shot of Chaosium‘s new book No Time to Scream in Foundry VTT for a friend and I. We played it yesterday to great fun. Highly recommended.
Oh wow. Foundry have EOL‘ed Modo.
I‘ve treated myself to a water rowing machine this week. A Sportstech WRX1000 is headed my way next week. I can hardly await it.
Making some feta in the oven. Yummy!
Well, this sucks…
Is it just me or does it feel like I am spending more time correcting iOS‘ predictive autocorrect then I am typing actual errors.
Please help me find a knowledge dump/retrieval solution
I am looking for a solution for my wife, who is not technically minded. So the solution should be very simple to use. I am looking for a way for her to collect and retrieve information with as little friction as possible.
Basically a way to dump websites, PDFs, images, emails or other text into a folder or application and then easily retrieve the information back with a search.
- The workflow should work without having to structure the dumped knowledge, but it may allow structuring.
- It might allow annotation.
- Ideally it works without locking to a specific software or file format.
- Also it should work within Apple‘s ecosystem, specifically iOS.
I fully expect riots when the US election results come out. The way Trump has already pushed the stolen election narrativeve you can bet that his followers will not accept a Harris win. It is going to get ugly.
„Go and vote. It could be your last.“ Had me in tears at the end. youtu.be/6bTpbDL5d…
Anyone else using DayOne and Micro.blog? Do you keep them separate? Combine them somehow? What’s your workflow?
Diving into Call of Cthulhu setup options for Foundry VTT. Sometimes I enjoy game prep more then actually playing.
Chaosium and HumbleBundle have a massive Call of Cthulhu sale going, which supports the World Wildlife Fund. Go grab yourself some Lovecraftian Horror for an incredible price. I did.
I also got myself a copy of the new three one-shot adventure book No Time to Scream.
The interesting thing about Trump is that he is unable to speak the truth about pretty much anything he says, while also speaking the plain truth about what what he is going to do when in office.
Home at Last!
And I’m on my last leg home sitting in the RE from Karlsruhe to Neustadt. The whole trip was smooth and without delays.
