Cyberpunk • NTS • more featured work →

I am a creative developer based in Berlin. I work across design engineering, 3D, creative tooling, audio, and making things with AI agents.

One of my favorite things in life is sharing what I'm into. Not just with friends, not just in workshops — also lectures, home parties that drift into spontaneous creative sessions, collaborations with people I admire.

The thread is deliberate making: shaping structure, visual language, and interaction yourself. We move through the lineage of creative coding (shaders, generative systems, web that pushes the edge), the strange parallels between LLMs and human cognition, and personal knowledge systems built on Obsidian and Are.na.

Recent: a Personal Software workshop in Bremen — building a piece of personal software, a site that's also an instrument, a tool you happen to share.

A handful of pieces I've put into the world, mostly little WebGL/WebGPU worlds you can wander through, each at its own subdomain. The full set lives at vladik.xyz/worked.

• Cyberpunk • NTS: an eternal Blade Runner monorail ride. Neon Tokyo, holographic Joi, scored by NTS Radio.
• City Pop • NTS: a Hiroshi Nagai-style Shonan monorail. Pool blues, palm fronds, an endless sunset, an NTS city-pop mix.
• Flowers Garden: a pastel valley to scroll through, with Animal Crossing energy.
• Apple Event Heatmap: a shader recreation of Apple's September 2025 event announce page.
• Music Sampler: a browser sampler with a pad grid and waveform editor.

Making with AI agents

• agent-skills — A growing kit of skills for AI coding agents — small, focused knowledge packs they load on demand. Covers Blender, Cinema 4D, Figma Context, and odd things like time-lens (where did my hours actually go?) and pdf-look-scanned (make a digital PDF look like it survived a real scanner). npx skills add vladmdgolam/agent-skills.
• figma-mcp-bridge — Agents that make Figma designs, not just read them. My fork of gethopp/figma-mcp-bridge adds the missing half: a full authoring toolset (create, edit, group, reparent, set selection) so an agent can sit beside you in the file and do the actual work.
• cinema4d-mcp — Prompt-driven 3D modeling in Cinema 4D, via MCP. Fork of ttiimmaacc/cinema4d-mcp with improvements.

3D (WebGPU, WebGL, Metal)

• apple-event-2025 — A shader recreation of Apple's September 2025 event announce page. Studying a visual language by hand. Live: apple.vladik.xyz.
• cmb-visualizer — A sphere colored by the cosmic microwave background — the leftover radiation map from the Big Bang. HEALPix tessellation, temperature mapped through a color ramp into the familiar CMB heatmap. A Blender → WebGPU port using TSL and a baked color-ramp LUT. Live: cmb-visualizer.vercel.app.
• r3f-perf — Performance monitor for @react-three/fiber. Fork of utsuboco/r3f-perf with improvements.
