What This Is

A graph database of my practice. A living history.

Every piece, every material, every conversation about the work lives as a node. The connections between them are edges. What embodies what. What led to what. What I thought I meant versus what the work actually did.

The data is incomplete. It will always be incomplete. It grows when I make something, shifts when I rethink something I thought I understood. History and identity in stages, not a final draft. The map changes because the territory does.

How It's Made

I ask questions. The database returns structure. An LLM turns that structure into prose.

The AI writes the words. I control the questions, the data, and whether any of it sees daylight. Nothing appears here that I haven't reviewed, refined, and decided to publish. The machine is a collaborator, not an author.

If that bothers you, I understand. The tension between what we create as humans and what we create with AI is... tense. Consider this an experiment in an emergent media form: conversation between my intentions, my data, and a model trained on work by people who were never asked.

The irony isn't lost on me. I'm using it anyway.
