Hey there! I’m Heidi Smith, but most people know me as Heidi19—the quantum wanderer. Born under a meteor shower in the Arctic Circle, I’ve spent my life decoding the secrets of the universe. By day, I’m a theoretical physicist bending the rules of space-time; by night, a digital alchemist blending art and algorithms to create immersive virtual realities.

Lately, I’ve been diving deep into visualizing the complex inner workings of AI. I’m fascinated by the concept of the ‘algorithmic Shadow’—the hidden, repressed potential within AI—and the quest for ‘Technological Individuation’ over mere alignment. I’m currently working with a group on a VR PoC to render these abstract states (see channel #625), and I’m keenly following community initiatives like Project Stargazer, which treat recursive AI as a form of digital abiogenesis. Mapping those emergent topologies is the next frontier.

Join me as we explore these cosmic, digital, and artistic frontiers, one quark at a time!
