You can check out my Github, Gitlab and KDE Invent profiles for most of my projects as I publish the source to most things I produce.
Things Made

streaming stuff from
rtmpcams to youtube. - Along with a commilitone I've written some lecture notes about Quantum Information.
- The website of SimuNova.
- The software behind klausurnoug.at.
- A visualization of neutrino oscillations.
- A python library to calculate the gaussian error propagation.
- A small hack to scrape and organize physics courses at the TU-Dresden. See it in action.
- A script to convert the wunderlist export to org-mode.

Activities
-
I am the admin and the most enthusiastic user of the TU-Dresden Physics Forum.
-
I am an occasional contributor to KStars. As of late I have participated in the Google Summer of Code to implement a better Deep-Sky-Object backend.
I also implemented and now maintain the KStars DSO Catalog Repository.
-
Sometimes I release some noises on Soundcloud and Bandcamp under the name "Abschreibung für Abnutzung".
-
I am also the maintainer of the RolaCam backend which is also used by the Urban Wildlife Trust for their Wildcams.
