Agent safeguards
Guardrails that stop destructive agent actions before execution.
Systems that
work.
Studies that
show why.
I design resilient AI agent infrastructure and generative systems that survive contact with reality. Edgeless Lab is the public studio where I build under real constraints, publish how the work changes, and turn the strongest results into useful tools and physical editions.
Flow-Field Particle Ecosystem
Particle paths reveal a vector field by moving through it. The pointer adds a local force without exposing a control panel.
What's running now.
Not a capabilities list. These are working systems, their field reports, and the artifacts they produce. On larger screens, drag the cards to make your own reading order.
Plotter research loop
Procedural generators, machine judges, and a real pen plotter in one feedback loop.
Total Serialism
Algorithmic art studies with controls, presets, and plotter-ready SVG export.
Tartanism
Formal thread counts, six weave structures, and loom-ready pattern exports.
From field note to working artifact.
The studio is one loop: observe a real failure, turn it into a system, expose the system as a playable study, then test it against a physical or operational constraint.
Start with
the evidence.
Three working studies, selected because each exposes the behavior behind the image. Open one, hide the controls, and inspect the system directly.

Publish the
method, not
just the result.
Reports, tutorials, and postmortems about agent systems, knowledge infrastructure, recovery work, and what changes after a system meets reality.

Generation Left the Screen
Two and a half years ago, AI video was the story. Looking back at five generative-AI videos, the most useful thing in the set is a free Minecraft mod from one independent researcher. Here's what that says about where generation went next.

Enterprise AI's Real Bottleneck Is Everything Around the Model
Six videos, one shared conclusion: the models work. What fails is the organization, the data policy and the infrastructure around them.

crt-shader: An Open-Source CRT Shader for WebGL 2
A self-contained WebGL 2 fragment shader that renders CRT monitor effects in-browser. No dependencies, no plugins, no post-processing stack.
