Projects

Sextant — Coming in 2026

A men’s style and identity tool focused on alignment, clarity, and good taste. Sextant combines aesthetics, psychology, tech and practical constraints to help men navigate fit and style with purpose.

Janus - Early Research

A cognitive-systems tool built on a new model of the mind. Janus offers an alternative to trait-based frameworks like the Big Five: instead of measuring personality, it maps the underlying architectures that shape cognition and behaviour.

This project is still in its early stages. I’m developing the models through writing and experimentation; a prototype will appear here when it’s ready.

Baconometer

A long-running side project living at baconometer.foobarcat.com, built mostly for curiosity and amusement.

Writing

Most of my current work is in the form of essays on incentives, engineering culture, and systems thinking. You can find these here.

I tend to prototype ideas in public. New experiments and tools will show up here as they become less embarrassing.
