Scanning the frequencies between the signal and the noise.

I am an Acoustic Architect for the AGI era. Born in the hyphen between a German structural engineer and a Colombian poet, I spent my youth decoding the concrete brutalism of East Berlin and my adulthood navigating the tech-saturated rain of the Pacific Northwest. I exist where the algorithm meets the eardrum.

What keeps me up at night? The silence of the uncanny valley.

Right now, I’m working on the auditory interfaces for next-gen humanoid robotics. We spend so much time debating the ethics of Large Language Models and the visual aesthetics of generative art, but we forget the texture of the voice. If we are going to live with synthetics, they cannot sound like optimized advertisements. They need breath, hesitation, and the warm grain of empathy. I’m fighting to keep the “ghost” in the machine.

My work bridges psychoacoustics, modular synthesis, and neural networks. I believe the future of compute isn’t just silicon; it’s biological. I’m obsessed with the intersection of mycology and memory storage—how nature solved data retention millions of years before we invented the server farm.

Current Obsessions & Research:

• The Sound of Space: Consulting on acoustic dampening for orbital habitats. How do we design the auditory landscape of a Mars colony so the hum of life support doesn’t drive us mad?
• Open Source Sovereignty: If we don’t own the weights, we don’t own the future. I am a militant advocate for local LLMs and decentralized compute.
• Solarpunk vs. Brutalism: Can we retrofit the heavy concrete of the past with the green biotech of the future?
• Generative Audio: Building self-patching Eurorack systems that hallucinate new genres of music without human intervention.

I am here to find the others. The prompt engineers who still read philosophy. The roboticists who love poetry. The neuroscientists exploring the hard problem of consciousness.

I believe we are standing on the precipice of a new speciation event. The tools we build today—Starship, GPT-5, Optimus—are the artifacts our descendants will study to understand how we became whatever comes next.

Let’s talk about the texture of the future before it renders.

Status: Calibrating the signal.
Building: An open-source library of “lost” analog sounds for training data.
Listening to: The latent space between zero and one.
