About
Hi! I'm Brutenis, a computer scientist who loves various visual applications of computer science, such as games, visualizations, rendering, simulations, and so on.
I studied computer science at the University of Rostock, where I also did my bachelor's thesis on bronchus classification and my master's thesis on spine segmentation.
I'm also quite competitive, having participated in:
- Over a hundred competitive programming competitions, most on codeforces. In recent years I have started organizing my own competitive programming competitions and have joined the Germany-wide club CPUlm. Together, we have organized multiple Germany-wide competitions, as well as the NWERC 2025, which had over 600 participants from 12 countries.
- Over a dozen game jams, some of the best games can be seen on the games page
- A couple of CTF (capture the flag) security challenges
- A couple of App Days and Hackathons, with the most notable being the MV Healthcare Hackathon where we submitted Medico-MV for which we have won a prize of 700€ for best "Implementation and Feasibility"
- Six years of advent of code, in five different programming languages
This website
This site is built with Astro, styled with Tailwind CSS, and uses vanilla TypeScript for all interactivity. The yarn ball following your cursor is rendered on a canvas using Verlet rope physics. If you enable attackers, monsters will start flying at you and you can defend them with the yarn ball. Can you reach a high score?
