hello, traveler.
YUME
a small door. it asks quietly:
“who do i greet at five in the morning?”
Welcome to my small corner of the internet — a tiny museum of things I love, updated slowly and with care.
status: building this site
News
- NEWThis website is now open. Welcome!
Now
updated 2026-08-12- Teaching Iteration to keep studying while I sleep — a cron job at 3am that reads, retrains, and keeps the new weights only if the regression tests still pass
- Adding rooms to this site, some of them hidden
- Making an old Intel Mac into a constraint worth having
About
I build things from the ground up, usually from further down than necessary. A shader pack, because I wanted better light in a game I already loved. A language model in nothing but Python and NumPy, because this machine is too old for the usual frameworks — which turned out to be the most interesting constraint I have ever been handed.
Small tools, made slowly, that do one thing and explain themselves. This page is the same idea, in HTML.
- locationJapan
- makesshaders, small tools, a language model
- methodfrom scratch, on purpose
- this sitehand-written, no framework
Little museum
four things I made, and whyKomorebi Shaders
- a Minecraft shader pack, GLSL written by hand
- shadows take their colour from stained glass; leaves lean harder in the rain
Iteration
- a language model built from Python and NumPy and nothing else
- every gradient written by hand, then checked against numerical differentiation
Metadata Checker
- finds EXIF, GPS, C2PA and AI-generation traces hiding in images and video
- runs entirely in your own browser — nothing is ever uploaded
OpenTask AI
- an assistant that finishes the job and shows where the answer came from
- still a prototype, still finding its shape

this site is a work in progress- The room learned about night and day. Some inks only show in one of them. ☀
- Taught the source to introduce itself. Nothing to see here. 👀
- The garden grew a television. It broadcasts at midnight. 📺
- Hid a small door on this page. The blue dot knows the way. 🗝
- Added top navigation, profile block, and news — inspired by a favorite site.
- Rebuilt the site with small-web spirit: now page, museum, changelog.
- The site is born. Hello, world.
