Research

Research toward living technology.

We explore how intelligence, learning and living systems can grow together. These are the threads we are pulling on — each one ends in a working product, not just a paper.

A luminous pipeline of documents becoming connected knowledge
Thread 01

Connected knowledge

How should a person's notes, sources and ideas relate to one another? This thread explores knowledge as a living network rather than a filing cabinet — and feeds directly into LitSynth and Root.

An assignment moving through careful, human-centred evaluation
Thread 02

Human-centred evaluation

What would assessment look like if it were designed around the teacher's judgment and the student's growth? This thread studies rubrics, feedback and fair evaluation — and feeds into InstantGrade.

A cinematic journey from source material to finished story
Thread 03

Story as an interface

People understand the world through narrative. This thread explores how raw material becomes scripts, scenes and finished video — the research direction behind VideoProd.

A small community generating and sharing local renewable energy
Thread 04

Technology that belongs outdoors

Solarpunk is not only software. This thread experiments with objects, materials and local energy — the exploratory ground for the SolarPunkWorks Store.

Code running live in the browser, connected to a learning page
Thread 05

Live, serverless computing

What if code could run where the reader is — in the browser, with no server and no setup? This thread builds the Pyodide-backed tooling that powers Root's interactive lessons and is published as free, open-source packages.

A decision engine choosing how multimodal pipelines are constructed
Thread 06

Decision intelligence for ML

How should a multimodal machine-learning pipeline be built — which modalities, granularity and fusion strategies, and which model backend? This thread explores an engine that decides and executes those choices, with LLM-orchestrated experimentation.

An ablation study isolating the components that matter
Thread 07

Ablation studies with AI

Upcoming work on using AI to design and run ablation studies — systematically isolating which components of a model or pipeline actually matter, and why.

From research to product

Exploration is only half the job.

Every research thread is expected to become something a person can use. Read how we think in the journal, or see where the research lands in our products.
