How we thrive in a world of abundance.
Fractal Data Lakehouse: A Recursive Interface for the Age of AI
Fractal Data Lakehouse merges the scalable raw data capabilities of a data lake with the structured analytical power of a data warehouse, governed by fractal principles—recursive, self-similar patterns across space (geography), time (history), and people (identity).
Way Down Hadestown: Reconciliation for Our Liminal Age of AI?
If AI is the next Hadestown—efficient, secure, but potentially dehumanizing—then Orpheus is the mythmaker, the artist, the remixer. A reminder that we are still here, and that meaning can emerge even inside the machine.
✉️ AIGORA Consigliere MVP Idea 1: Email Helper
“What if your inbox wasn’t a to-do list, but a map of who and what you trust?”
✈️ AIGORA Design Fiction: The Trip to Anywhere
Custodial AI – The family’s shared memory steward. Holds intent over time. Carries the family’s moral ledger.
Deaf Spots (ChatGPT on Y Combinator)
In a sense, that's exactly what we’re doing when we look for the most disruptive ideas: we’re searching for the fixed points in the system—the things it won’t change, can’t change, because everything else depends on them.
AIGORA Design Sprint Kickoff: “Consigliere”

🧠🍻 Fireside Chat: Sam Altman, Tim O’Reilly & Elon Musk on AIGORA
Tim: > “AIGORA isn’t just a technical blueprint—it’s a moral imperative. We must design systems that reflect our highest values.”
AIGORA: Why Humans Will Win the Age of AI
AIGORA (AI + agora) is a vision for a human-centered AI ecosystem — a decentralized, liquid marketplace where individuals find AI products that deserve their trust. It reframes the future of artificial intelligence not as a zero-sum race between monopolistic platforms, but as a flourishing commons of interoperable agents, governed by permission, reputation, and mutual benefit. In the age of AI, humans will win — not by outcompeting machines, but by designing systems where our trust, values, and agency are sovereign.
“Mi MOSA 2040” (Retrospective on the Modular Open Systems Architecture)
I was there—on the drafting call, in the back corner of a drafty conference room in the Pentagon’s E-ring. And I’ll tell you something that never made it into the record: halfway through, one of the junior drafters—we called her LT—looked up and asked, “Wait… are we actually going to do this? Or is this just another polite lie we tell ourselves about interoperability?”
