Schalmeien- und Kulturverein e.V.

Since 1999

At the age of 12 I started as a soprano with in the shawm orchestra. After 15 years as a musician, I moved to the other side of the podium and have been conducting the orchestra since 2014.

I joined the board as an assessor in 2007. Two years later I was elected deputy secretary and have been the club's secretary since 2017.

Männerchor 1882 Herrensohr e.V.

Since 2008

After I was “caught” singing along at the local red cross summer festival, I was invited to the rehearsal.

In 2009 there was a search for a deputy secretary, so I stood for the office and was elected. At the 2021 general meeting I was proposed as deputy treasurer, and since then I have been supporting the management of finances.

Saar Hackathon e.V.

Since 2019

In 2018, a hackathon was planned in Dudweiler by Christoph Endres and Kim Pecina, scheduled for the second weekend of January 2019. It fell almost exactly on the 6th anniversary of the death of Aaron Swartz, who is a role model and inspiration for the initiators. I supported the planning and implementation of the hackathon.

It quickly became clear that more such hackathons would take place, so an club was founded to provide legal protection. When the club was founded, I was elected deputy chairman, a position I have held ever since.

Technik Kultur Saar e.V.

Since 2019

Through my acquaintance with several members of the TKS, I visited the hackerspace several times. In 2019 I decided to join the club and thus support it financially. Apart from general meetings, I cannot take part in most events due to time constraints.

Adventsammlung

Since 2008

I have been organizing an annual food collection for Saarbrücker Tafel e.V. since 2008.

Every year on the 3rd Sunday in Advent, canned goods and other foodstuffs are collected in Herrensohr and Jägersfreude, following the example of the old clothing collection, which are then left on the doorstep as a donation by the residents.

Around 1,500 donated items are collected every year, which is around 800kg of food. Over the years we have been able to donate more than 17,000 items and almost 9 tons of food.

Caspari.Saarland / UCas'Life

Since 2007

My personal weblog under the motto "IT, music, politics, Dudweiler, I", which is mostly about politics and volunteer work, sometimes about IT and IT security, rarely really about me personally.

Since 2024, there has also been an explicit attempt to do journalism in Saarland and thereby close gaps and deal with topics that, in my opinion, are not (sufficiently) addressed by existing media.

Dudweiler-Blog

Since 2018

The Dudweiler blog was started in 2011 by Thomas Braun as a news portal for Dudweiler and the Sulzbachtal. I have been part of the editorial team there since 2018.

DudoPlaner / Dudweiler.Rocks

Since 2015

The DudoPlaner is an event calendar for Dudweiler and the Sulzbachtal. After the district administration no longer published a calendar with the clubs' events, I started a platform called Dudweiler.Rocks to give clubs an easy way to collect their events in one place. The project got off to a slow start and it wasn't until the summer of 2022, when I restarted the platform and renamed it DudoPlaner, that things gained momentum. Today it is the central platform for appointments and leisure tips in and around Dudweiler.

Tau'ri-Talk

Since October 2023

I'm allowed to talk to Carina about Stargate, but not about individual episodes, but about various topics, such as peoples, technologies, weapons, locations and so on. Imagine Trekkipedia, but about the Stargate universe.

Amiga500 SNES Steam

When I was a child we had an Amiga500, but that was actually mainly a games console for my brother and me. Later we got SNES, PlayStation, GameCube and gaming PCs. Today I still love playing Mario Kart on the Nintendo Switch, but I also have a Steamdeck for on the couch. Otherwise I'm more of a PC gamer, and most of the games that appeal to me aren't particularly suitable for consoles.

In my Steam profile you can get an idea of what I liked to do in my free time… until I became a father. ;-)
