Navigation Main-page

Conforming to the standards set by the new About, I derived a page encapsulating the (in the previous chapter implemented) navigation index-pages, merging both outlooks into a hybrid design, to serve as an intermediary menu.

The posts on this blog are segmented into chronologically ordered chapters, each leading up to an important event or cut short by a brief posting break, leading in a new construction stage. Using these indexes to find an entry point (e.g. the first post), and continuing onwards through the posts is the best way to read the blog as if it were a book.


All posts are submitted into content-derivative categories, recognizable by their distinctly formatted outlook. These indexes form the best course for understanding the structure of this blog, serving general interest as well as facilitating cross-referencing, by maintaining an organised view of all posts within each category.



Post-tags add a notion of clarifying context to posts while at the same time bundling them through inter-category connections. They are normally found mixed-up up in an alphabetically ordered cloud. For these indexes, the tags are classified into a number of tag-types, forming parallel lines of posts within each type of context, providing a structured environment for comparing tag formed listings.


The search function is the best way for speedy retrieval of any specific post or gathering posts from a number of keywords. This page depicts its effect by also displaying its results in a post-time sorted index. The search works great for querying content-aspects not exemplified by previous methods (e.g. silk shirt), as well as forming combinations of the ones that are. (e.g. sunday primary treasure)


The new About

I, DiscipulusOpus Relinque is a weblog I use to share a daily excerpt from my work on a multitude of artistically incited projects, of which the majority have become gothic fashion garments for both myself and my companion, directed towards larger goth-scene happenings such as the yearly Wave Gotik Treffen.
Favoring creative design above over-decoration, I set out to synthesize divergent styles, incorporating both classical and modern materials and construction methods, documenting my opus while releasing my creativity upon the world.

Educated in science and architecture, while active in information technologies; combining resources with structures to achieve forthcoming results has become a second nature. Considering the lingering couture-wisdom within my heritage I felt compelled to answering a youthful artistic indulgence and express my own inventive visions of high-end men’s apparel contrived to the best of my on-growing knowledge.

..writer of Opus RelinqueBundling sights that touched and shaped me through my years, with my own notions on form and beauty, I search to challenge the fine border between street-wear and art-fashion, experimentingly honoring my influences devoid of genre limitations and not shy for any extravaganza.
Lead by mathematical justification I continue to conceptualise thoughts and ideas into construction-methods taking control over the coveted design towards creating standalone pieces highly motivated in individual charisma whilst serving their proquired purpose within subsuming outfits.
Regarding the construction I am blessed to have a guiding hand at a modestly equipped atelier, allowing me to continue my home-base efforts while providing me a continuous glance into past couture, complementing my autodidactic confection knowledge, in exploring the best method for the job.

Which brings us to the raison d’être for this blog, which is the sharing of these, from memory-fading, techniques, in extrapolating my designs and motivating material choices as I document my own learning process, showcase my results and cover acquisitions and undertakings, providing the total artistic concept broken down into original scribings, though-out and fashioned in an eloquence reflecting the clothes themselves, populating this platform, I keep groomed to my personal standards of web-resources.

..show myself.Hoping my writings contribute something of interest to those who come to read them, I’m thankful to those who already do so now and support me with their graceful feedback, critical observations and appreciative ponderings, making me confident enough to ask you to click my sponsors and spread the word about this website, as though the long-term course of it is unclear to me, I wish that for the time being we can converse adressed topics together and see where the future will take us.

The Gallery Page

Having fallen ill after Amphi Festival I was able to do some more programming for the photo gallery and finish it a bit sooner than expected. It has become a condensed construction fitting neatly into a page and housing a maximum selection of 22 pictures at any given time.

Navigation: Search Function

The last navigation-methods page takes the bare foundations of the new interface to incorporate a search field that dynamically returns all matching results in a chronologically listed index. Be sure to give it a try!

Search Input:

Search Results:

All index-pages are now situated under the container page “navigation” and are directly accessible through the top javascript menus, so make best use of them.

Navigation: Context Tags

The third navigation page uses an adaption of the other pages’ interface to display all post tags divided into categories naming the type of context-placement they belong to.

Hover the tag-name to view a brief explanation and click it to show its postlist.

Skill Tags: dispersing between fabrication and knowledge fields
Line Tags: dispersing between the separate clothing lines
Contains: primary, secondary
Style Tags: dispersing between sub-genres of Gothic fashion
Treasure Tags: dispersing between various kinds of treasure
WGT Tags: dispersing between different days of the WGT

Due to the growing nature of this blog, not all tags are ideally distributed yet. Some further changes may also take place within the Style Tags, a classification method I find utterly difficult to manage.
