The Lab
Research programs, not side projects.
Ongoing research programs. Each one is a different cut at the same question: what does it take for an AI system to genuinely persist?
A lab program is a long-lived investigation: a central question, an evolving approach, and open problems stated plainly. Some of this work is proprietary; the thinking behind it is not.
Program 01
LoomDB
A graph-based temporal memory architecture.
Context as a living graph: activation spreads, attention decays, relevance is a function of time. Memory that behaves less like a database and more like a mind — recency, frequency, and association shaping what surfaces and what fades.

Program 02
EPCG
An emergent personality framework for AI agents.
Personality as structure, not system prompt. EPCG composes agent identity from three interacting layers — Behavior, Belief, and Biography — drawing on category theory to make the composition lawful, inspectable, and stable over time.

Program 03
Ayvu-Talian
Language modeling for minority language preservation.
A decoder-only transformer trained for Talian, a Venetian-derived language spoken in southern Brazil. What language modeling looks like when the training corpus is a community's living memory, not the internet — and the failure mode is cultural loss.
