Dominik,
It's perhaps also worthwhile to note that we don't really know what you
want to achieve in a broader sense--this might be a case of an XY problem,
where we can tell you how to do X really well, but ultimately given more
context it might be far better to do Y. (Though I usually enjoy the
challenge of making X good, as well).
