Welcome to my website!

About Me

I'm a 22 years old tech enthusiast from Germany. By day, I'm a production test software engineer for high-speed AWGs at Keysight.
By night, I like to hang out with fellow hackers from the Chaos Computer Club. You can see my other interests down the page.

3D-Printing

I got into 3D-Printing in 2017 when I bought my 3D-Printer, an Anet A8. Since then I printed many parts to tune my printer as well as many beautiful things like the two Baby-Groots you can see in the image below and functional things for me and for friends like car parts or an actioncam mount for my ski helmet.


Software Defined Radio (SDR) and weather satellites

Since I heard about being able to recieve all radio frequencies up to 1.2 GHz with just a very cheap USB dongle back in 2014 I am very fascinated by poking around the radio spectrum, listening to amateur radio operators and decoding various signals.
Examples are flight data (ADS-B), RTTY and WeFax weather forecasts by the German Weather Service, weather ballon (Radiosonde) data, and images from weather satellites such as NOAA 19 or Meteor-M2 which are orbiting the earth in a lower earth orbit, in these cases at a height of about 850 km. You can learn more about this whole topic at www.rtl-sdr.com.

Here you can see an image from Meteor-M2 that I recieved and decoded myself:

Airrings

Since I saw someone creating airrings at my local open-air swimming pool many years ago I couldn't forget about seeing this until I had the idea that there must be tutorials on YouTube on how to make them about two years ago. What I found was this and this video. After two years of practicing you can even do some "tricks" like these two airrings fusing together:
