▸ NODE 01 · PRODUCTION

ex44

Hetzner EX44 bare metal. Caddy reverse proxy. 6 production domains. Cloudflare tunnels.

Ubuntu 24 · qstar · 100.118.191.37
▸ NODE 02 · COMPUTE

gex44 / fluxframe

AMD workstation. ROCm / llama.cpp / Ollama inference. K3s + Docker. Dask distributed.

RX 6900 XT · 100.90.44.33

Apple Silicon · 100.122.66.65
§ 03 · Research

Papers, frameworks, falsified hypotheses.

Published under Flux Frame Publishing. Available on request.

▸ PAPER · 2026

The Sovereignty Problem

Unified framework on the prefrontal cortex's capacity to override biological directives. Integrates Active Inference, a catatonia/delirium diagnostic protocol, AI distortion of predictive models, and the food-supply "Perfection Tax" systems analysis.

▸ PAPER · 2026

Holographic Active Inference

HDC + Free Energy Principle on consumer CPU. Five-crate Rust workspace. M1 bind 189 ns, distance 52 ns. 19× faster re-adaptation than DQN baseline.

▸ PROTOCOL

Leapfrog Catapult Protocol

Recursive methodology for prompt engineering and meta-technique analysis. 13-document research corpus. Two formal academic papers in pipeline (EMNLP Findings, Minds and Machines).

▸ FALSIFICATION · ACCEPTED

Cyber-Heisenberg Uncertainty Bound

Proposed ΔₒA·ΔₒB ≥ ½|⟨[A,B]⟩|(1 + Λₒ). Controlled experiment with proper sham. Null was not rejected. Hypothesis cleanly retired. The methodological highlight is the falsification, not the framing.

§ 04 · Writing

Books, essays, field reports.

Theological prose, systemic critique, speculative fiction, and code-adjacent journalism.

● Book · Pre-order

Live Staged or Die Framed

The Physics of Survival at Absolute Zero. Three-edition release: Field Edition, Architecture Edition, Complete Record.
