Avidius Du Vide  ·  Founder, IRF

Avidius Du Vide is the founder of the International Raumschach Federation and author of The Complete Raumschach Theoretical Series. His interest in Raumschach began with the theoretical poverty of the existing literature and the conviction that Ferdinand Maack’s invention deserved the same rigorous treatment accorded to flat chess. He corresponds under this nom de clavier and makes no claim to any particular geography, profession, or biography beyond what is expressed in the work itself.
