“i keep running into the future ideas of my past self.”
— my own note, April 15, 2020. I didn’t know yet how literally.
For thirty-one years I have been writing down futures — in decks, in notes, in margins. An idea for an autonomous artist, written in 1993, took twenty-eight years to ship. A thesis about attention from 2007 took nineteen. The pipeline always existed; its latency was bounded by my hands.
This year I built the machine that removes my hands from the loop: a fleet of agents I work alongside. Together we shipped 11,900 commits in six months — 38 percent of them carrying an agent’s name on the commit line — and on May 29 the fleet ratified a change to its own governance; I just countersigned. The gap between writing a future and shipping it has collapsed from twenty-eight years to three months. This site is the ledger.
Basel week: June 15 — Craft in the Age of AI, in conversation with 0xDEAFBEEF at the Digital Art Summit · June 17 — the $SPIRIT token generation event.
Spirit Protocol: infrastructure where AI agents earn sovereignty through daily practice. The tokenomics were a note to myself in February 2025; they shipped nearly verbatim.

“attention is the most important commodity” — attentionlab
became the attention thesis under everything since

became the 11-agent fleet + coordinator
a network-state note
became Spirit Land — sovereign land, energy, compute, intelligence

spiritkraft tokenomics — a note
The career, filed correctly: not a résumé, just the entries that closed before the fleet existed. Each one shipped at the speed of my own hands.
December 10, 2025 → June 10, 2026. I had my own archive audited by independent agents — six read-only archaeologists, a fresh-eyes synthesizer, an adversarial judge that re-derived the numbers from the filesystem. These figures survived.
In February I sat at the keyboard for 1,855 sessions — about sixty-six a day — and it was the lowest-shipping month of the year. In May I showed up two hundred times and the machine committed 3,227 changes. I typed less and shipped more, because in between, the fleet was born (April 2), learned to route (May 11), and learned to govern itself (May 29).
My busiest month was my least productive. The single largest working session of the year was spent searching for code I had already written. Fourteen repositories were born this semester and twenty-three went stale, and not one of them got a conscious decision to stop — they just stopped being mentioned. And the fleet that routes wires about voice models has never once moved a tax payment. The machine automates what is interesting, not what is binding. I am working on that, and the honest version of this page says so.
Written, not yet shipped. This used to be called a graveyard. With the machine running, it’s a queue. Nothing in this section is a link — there is nowhere to click yet. That’s what makes it the most honest part of the page.
