The Mission
An independent research programme built on collaboration, open-source intelligence, currated data, and reproducible methodology. The work here is original analysis, grounded in evidence, produced to contribute to how decisions are made and how empirical evidence is understood.
The lab is open to collaborators — people who want to fund, contribute, follow, or build alongside the research. Every synthesis, artifact, and tool is made to be shared. So let's work together.
Interests
The scientific methodology, humanity's uncomfortable problems, conflict, climate, geography, applied tech, making tools, geospatial technologies, data, hardware, DIY robotics, artificial intelligence for everyday use, journalism, tech, creative innovations, grounding scientific fantasy into reality
