FretField
An interactive bass-fretboard app that teaches the neck as a spatial field of harmonic possibilities instead of a grid of shapes to memorize, with live pitch detection and guided practice.

Computation
Computation, infrastructure, and systems engineering.
The technical core of the lab. A space for computation, programming languages, interpreters, Linux, Kubernetes, distributed systems, AI engineering, and the mechanics of software.

Notes
Chessroll
A deterministic CLI that turns PGN games and FEN positions into polished short-form vertical videos, rendered from real Stockfish analysis and real chess rules rather than screen-recorded from a website.
Notaroll
A CLI that turns a single ABC notation file into a synchronized rolling-score video: modern engraved notation scrolling under a fixed playhead in sync with a realistic sampled piano.
Thinking in Cycles
A practical, intuition-first guide to Linux performance engineering, paired with cyclelab, a CLI for generating controlled workloads and testing what a hypothesis-driven measurement actually proves.
Thinking in Packets
A conceptual mental model for computer networks — signals, frames, IP addressing, routing, TCP/UDP, DNS, TLS, HTTP, and cloud and container networking — built up from the smallest possible problem.
Thinking in Tokens
A conceptual mental model for modern AI systems — tokens, embeddings, attention, transformers, hallucination, retrieval, and agents — written with no math and no ML background required.
Efficient AI Systems
A 12-week research and engineering program investigating small language models on CPU-only infrastructure, from raw transformer inference to a production Go service on Kubernetes.
