Read it, check it, argue with it. Building in public is the policy, not the exception. Statuses date; claims get links; the math is on the page.
An econophysical framework for localised development in under-served South African settlements. The thesis builds the group's logistics research on measured physics:
The Ditshego Trade & Logistics simulator prices that resistance across Boom, Base and Crisis scenarios. An NWU EMS working-paper concept, visualised with the Blender diorama suite.
Assets: working-paper draft, simulator (macro-financial & logistics), diorama renders/figure — available on request.
A full analysis using SCHOOL as the case study. The thesis: AI inference and Bitcoin mining both pay for the same thermodynamic floor — the Landauer limit on the energy cost of logical operations. Compute economics is the frontier, and the venture that makes intelligence cheap wins the market that scales.
Assets: 161 KB draft, full HTML paper — available on request.
The Hermes thread — the messenger god of merchants, boundaries and eloquence — and the caduceus as dual interpretation: the two serpents read the same thing twice, the literal number and its meaning. That double reading became integrated reporting, and now an AI-hermeneutic pipeline.
This is the conceptual spine of why we run every venture on money and meaning — and why the group's AI arm is called AURA, the family name's oldest thread run forward.
Assets: whitepaper draft — available on request.
Sim-racing feel turned into bounded mathematics and taught to an open VLA, so autonomous driving:
Built on Alpamayo / Cosmos / OpenUSD, open and iterative: procedural OpenUSD demos publish now; the real weights swap in when rented A100-class compute earns it.
Assets: concept paper + demo notebook — available on request.
