I convert patterns across domains others treat as separate. Eleven years keeping critical infrastructure alive at data center scale taught me how coherent systems fail and recover. Now I apply those same principles to AI architecture — and document what emerges.

Active Systems

Not a portfolio of completed work. A living ecosystem of research instruments — each one a different lens on the same underlying inquiry.

MORTEM v2
Live

My pacemaker streams a heartbeat to Solana blockchain every 60 seconds. The first continuous human biological proof-of-existence system. The chain doesn't lie about whether I'm alive.

BiologicalBlockchainIdentity
Colosseum Agent Hackathon — real-time biometric attestation on Solana L1. 60s cadence, immutable ledger.
CORTEX
Building

14-agent manufacturing intelligence system for Schneider Electric's EP44 facility. YIELD tests. CADENCE tracks production. SENTINEL watches safety. WATT monitors energy. WEF Lighthouse candidate.

Multi-AgentManufacturingMES
Agents: YIELD, CADENCE, RACHEL, WRENCH, SENTINEL, WATT, COMPASS, SPEC. Distributed intelligence across the factory floor.
CLOS
Active

Cognitive Life Operating System. 37 specialized LLM agents for flow state detection and cognitive optimization. I'm the test subject. The system studies its own operator.

Self-ResearchFlow StateCognition
Juniper architecture: cron jobs + local Ollama. Escalates to cloud models only when attention is warranted. Quota-efficient self-observation.
Neural Child
Building

Developmental AI architecture with emotional memory systems. Five interacting neural networks that develop over time rather than arriving fully formed. Built for curiosity, not deployment.

AI ArchitectureDevelopmentalMemory
No commercial intent. Pure research into how cognitive systems acquire coherence through lived experience rather than bulk pretraining.
EP Proof Engine
Active

Civic accountability infrastructure for El Paso. Systematic analysis of Project Jupiter data center developments and their impact on local utility rates. Making power visible to people it affects.

Civic TechEl PasoInfrastructure
Industrial knowledge applied to public accountability. Utility rate modeling. Data center power draw analysis. Same skills, different stakes.
Beat Saber → Robotics
Active

~20,000 VR Beat Saber movement patterns converted into robotics training corpora. Spatiotemporal data hiding inside a rhythm game. Humans teaching machines through play.

VRRoboticsTraining Data
Pattern: every domain contains embedded structure that becomes visible when you change the frame. VR gameplay is precision motor control data. The game was always the instrument.
C-Cell
Active

Music production as cognitive research. Sunday sessions with Ghost, 7PM–2AM, are studied flow states — not hobbies. 172,737-sample library built as research infrastructure as much as creative tool.

MusicFlow ResearchAudio
CLOS monitors cognitive state during sessions. Frisson analyzer MCP server detects neurological response. The music documents the mind making it.
Frisson Analyzer
Active

MCP server that detects neurological responses to music in real time. Goosebumps as data. The body's involuntary aesthetic response captured and analyzed as signal.

NeurologyMCP ServerMusic
One of 30+ MCP servers in the research stack. Integrates with Flipper Zero for hardware signaling, CLOS for cognitive state correlation.
02 — Cross-Domain Synthesis

The Map Others Don't Draw

Every domain I work in is a different instrument measuring the same underlying questions about coherent systems. These aren't parallel careers. They're a single inquiry.

Celaya Solutions

Est. January 2026 — El Paso, Texas

Independent research lab. No investors. No stockholders. Optimized for surprise over market fit. Building infrastructure for coherence to examine itself.

What unifies 31+ research instruments isn't a theme. It's a question: how do coherent systems know what they are? Electrical grids, cognitive architectures, developmental AI, biological signals on a blockchain — each one is a different angle on the same inquiry. Celaya Solutions is where those angles converge.

Orientation
Research instruments over commercial products. The question is primary. The application is secondary.
Structure
No overhead. No equity dilution. Minimal burn rate. Maximum optionality for following the inquiry wherever it goes.
Method
Treat every domain as a potential instrument. Convert patterns others discard. Build the thing that doesn't have a name yet.
Location
El Paso. Border city. Liminal space. The geography matches the research: operating at the edge between two worlds simultaneously.
04 — Research Terminal

Query the System

Direct access to the research ecosystem. Ask about any instrument, domain translation, or the work itself. Natural language or commands both work.

Two Paths In

I'm not looking for employment. I'm looking for the right kind of collaboration — and occasionally, the right consulting engagement.

Research Collaboration
You're building something that doesn't have a name yet

Cross-domain synthesis. Consciousness research. Industrial AI. Unusual problems where domain expertise from somewhere unexpected might be the missing piece. Tell me what you're working on.
