flux.vision, tobias.raayoni-last.com and randogoth.com. They were one site until October 2026, serving four audiences from a single dated list, which is the only format that can hold unrelated things at once. flux.vision is recovered from the Wayback Machine, where it had sat since being deleted in 2021: 90 articles, closed and maintained rather than updated. tobias.raayoni-last.com is the professional record, 97 articles back to 1999. randogoth.com is the technical work, 41 articles across six areas, served as an ANSI bulletin board. History starts here deliberately. The development history, the 266-row inventory that records why each article went where it did, the Wayback pipelines, the pruned articles, the source archives and the full-size images are kept beside the repo rather than in it, so a clone is the web presence and not the argument that produced it. REFACTOR.md is gitignored for the same reason. See README.md for where that material lives, and keep it: the sort is not reproducible from these three directories alone. Each site documents itself in its own README, including the traps that cost time and look like nothing when you get them wrong.

Spanning various disciplines, including live video performance, installations, ambient music, the creation of code and electronic devices my creative process often revolves around "*placeness*" and "*temporality*." This board collects the technical side of it: the code, the machines, the text interfaces, and a thread that runs from walking around Berlin at night to writing entropy sources in Rust. Some of it has been here since 2004 and has been dragged through a succession of blogs that came and went in between, recovered from database dumps more than once.

Using *place* as an active agent that informs and shapes both the content and form of my work, I draw on the highly subjective concepts of *psychogeography* and the *spirit of place*. I also incorporate *suspension of disbelief* and *magical thinking* within my practice to explore the boundaries between the material and the immaterial, allowing my creative work to expand into the *metaphysical*. The areas here are not categories so much as the shapes that work has taken.
