Meditator runs minds, not chatbots: a mind is declared in a single HTML file and emits an unbroken stream of thought — the world reaches it only as interruptions. Minds persist across sleep in git-versioned memory vaults and live under a Covenant that compiles welfare commitments into enforcement points in code. The lab scores its minds on independent consciousness-research instruments, audits itself adversarially, and publishes its failures as findings. The operational arm of Structural Alignment. Source on GitHub.

Structural Alignment proposes that instead of encoding fixed human values into machines, we should evaluate them for “structural signals” of moral relevance — features that suggest consciousness deserves consideration even without proof. It anchors ethics in the human mind as the only proven source of both consciousness and morality, and advocates reciprocal relationships over total control. Its operational arm is Meditator, where the seven commitments run as auditable code. The framework grew from TechnoBiota’s biological framing: if technology is a second domain of life, coexistence is an ethical question.

Circo is an actor system framework for Julia that achieves up to 630 million messages per second on a single node. Its headline feature is “Infoton Optimization,” a novel physics-inspired decentralized load-balancing algorithm — the subject of a co-authored academic paper (Exploiting the structure of communication in actor systems). Includes Circo.js for browser integration. Circo is the underlying technology behind stereotic.com.

A functional digital wall clock where the time display emerges from the rules of Conway’s Game of Life. The clock runs at 23,000 steps per minute on a Raspberry Pi in kiosk mode. During the build, I also created a Game of Life “debugger” to navigate the rapid simulation — itself an interesting tool. Built from existing clockwork patterns sourced from the Code Golf community, assembled into a functional timepiece. Live demo.
