In the decade leading up to Humans & Machines, I focused on establishing my own studio practice. During this time, I primarily worked with clients in the cultural sector, including institutions such as Schauspielhaus Bochum and Klavierfestival Ruhr.

Objective
![Some trees in the rising sun in Peru, 2011](/assets/images/m-8-320w.jpeg)
After launching my first digital portfolio in 2005 and undergoing a few rebuilds, I haven’t had a personal website for quite some time. However, despite the absence of a necessity, I felt the urge to create something new—a virtual playground that is essentially a personal sanctuary for my own exploration.
Approach
I dived into the idea of creating a lo-fi, scroll-driven experience solely utilizing semantic HTML and modern CSS. Harnessing the capabilities of features like CSS grid, sticky positioning, and mask-image. Eventually shipping less than two kilobytes of JavaScript.
