︎    Independent
︎︎︎    Manifesto, Link
[[]]    local-first-software, mindfulness, inner-development

pond is a digital journal designed to nurture growth through cycles of reflection, intention, and action.

It is also a digital space inhabited by Innio, a digital being who acts as a gentle listener and guide, connecting you to timely insights to support your personal transformation.



desci nodes


a radically open scientific publishing platform


2023 - 2024


︎    DeSci Labs
︎︎︎    Link
[[]]    decentralized-science, open-science

As Design Technologist at DeSci Labs, I developed and designed the core concepts and interfaces of DeSci Nodes, a radically open publishing platform built on IPFS, enabling researchers to seamlessly publish papers, code, and data as open-access, version-controlled “Research Objects”.

I also designed the user interactions for a forthcoming cryptoeconomic peer review system, empowering scientific communities to create and award quality badges to research objects, and financially reward reviewers—transforming peer review into an open, fair, and community-driven process.



trails.social


a customisable and interpretable feed algorithm supporting a mindful social media experience


2022


︎    Roote Foundation
︎︎︎    ConceptGithub, Demo
[[]]    human-in-the-loop,
         custom-feeds, 
         context-aware-navigation

trails.social offers an alternative to how we find and engage with content on social media by providing customizable feeds that align with our personal interests—letting us easily tune in or step away whenever we like.

Behind the scenes, trails analyzes and organizes social connections and content into a structured network called a “social knowledge graph”, enabling transparent, understandable recommendations that put users fully in control. 

Development ceased after Twitter restricted access to its API for third-party clients.

abstract poetry
a generous interface for iterative and semantic search of academic papers
2022


︎     Deepcore AI Lab,
          a Softbank Subsidiary
︎︎︎     ConceptFigma,
          Github, Demo
[[]]     guided-ML,
          open-science,
          bayesian-inference

abstract poetry demonstrates iterated semantic search to support the discovery of academic papers. 

Using user impressions on paper abstracts as inputs to a Bayesian algorithm, abstract poetry traverses an embedding space of unseen abstracts to locate regions of possible interest. 

civicdash
a community data dashboard for citizens to understand and interact with their city
2022


︎    The Graph Foundation
︎︎︎    Concept, FigmaGithub
[[]]    futarchy,
         prediction-markets,
         data-dashboards

The core hypothesis of civicdash is that promises for civic change are more likely to be kept if they are accountable to civic data.

civicdash’s role is to make that data as accurate, accessible and actionable to the civic-minded as possible.

civicdash was presented during Graph Day 2022, one of web3’s largest conferences.
