PATRIK VON PORAT · CREATIVE HUB
Creative instinct, given structure.
I’m Patrik von Porat. I make heavy music, draw by hand, and build digital tools for creative work. This is where I share the projects—and the thinking that shapes them.
Guitarist · Visual Artist · Systems-Minded Creator
Concrete projects across sound, image and code.
Active music releases, physical craft, and personal tools currently in development.
Realmforged
A cinematic power metal project developed across music, dark-fantasy storytelling, visual direction, release design and a dedicated digital home.
Ashwrithe
An evolving dark extreme metal project built through sound, restraint, ritual atmosphere and a deliberately controlled visual identity.
Visual Practice
An ongoing exploration of traditional materials, controlled technique and visual observation through studies, experiments and finished work.
DMAIC Companion
A local-first, guided web app for Lean Six Sigma improvement work and Apollo root cause analysis, replacing static templates with guided workflows.
Explore by discipline.
Three distinct creative areas connected by the same commitment to craft, structure, and continuous improvement.
Music & Worlds
Composition, guitar and interconnected creative worlds built through sound, story and visual direction.
Visual Practice
Drawing, tattoo practice, physical models and digital experimentation grounded in observation and craft.
Systems & Digital Work
Websites, workflows and improvement systems that turn complexity into something clearer and more useful.
From raw instinct to deliberate execution.
The medium dictates the tools, but the underlying discipline connects every project.
OBSERVE
Catching raw guitar riffs, studying pencil proportions, or spotting friction in daily studio habits.
STRUCTURE
Arranging tempos for Realmforged, mapping graphite values, or designing local data models for DMAIC Companion.
CREATE
Tracking layered guitars, rendering physical ink studies, or building client-side tools without cloud bloat.
REFINE
Trimming arrangement clutter, balancing drawing contrast, and writing automated tests that verify durability.
What I am building and learning now.
- •Developing the first official Ashwrithe material
- •Building the next phase of Realmforged
- •Studying charcoal, drawing and tattoo technique
Notes from the process.
Building Eddie: From Printing to Preparation
With only two parts left to print, the Eddie build is moving into cleanup, quality inspection and test assembly.
Building my own improvement toolbox
I’m building DMAIC Companion, an app for improvement projects and root cause analysis. It’s also a way to learn by building, testing, and refining.
My Resin Printer Kept Failing, So I Took It Apart
A closer look at my Anycubic Photon Mono M5s — cleaning up the damage, checking the LCD, and replacing some very tired parts.
Follow the work as it develops.
Music, images, experiments and the thinking behind them.
