Research
Programming languages, reasoning, and the conditions under which computational tools extend human possibility.
Our questions ↗What could we build that makes more goodness possible?
We begin with people, abstract machines, and the practice of assembling them.
The best way to engineer and bring about an increase in the overall potential goodness a sentient being in this world can experience, starting with the focus on humans who utilize computational devices to practice the Tantra of Abstract Machine Assembling (TAMA / “たま”), such as software engineers and AI researchers.
Our research intention — not a claim that goodness has a single definition, or that its increase has already been demonstrated.
Our starting point is the human being at a computational device: the software engineer, the AI researcher, the person turning an idea into an abstract machine.
Programming languages, reasoning, and the conditions under which computational tools extend human possibility.
Our questions ↗The Tantra of Abstract Machine Assembling. A name for approaching the construction of machines as an intentional practice.
The practice ↗Books, essays, and open inquiry. An invitation to examine the cultures in which our technologies take shape.
The press ↗Our first LLM-harness Interactive Development Environment, ARCHY.build, will be released around Dec 2027. ARCHY.build is designed to create harnesses for the advancement of sciences and mathematics.
Our first LLM-harness IDE.
Signed essays on culture, technology, and how we might live. A publishing space for considered arguments—not a substitute for evidence.
