Welcome. This is my blog, where I post notes on whatever I'm working on or reading about. The topics jump around a fair bit and don't always connect, but they're a decent picture of what I spend my time on. Have a look around and hopefully something's useful. ### Thematic Nodes Current crops include: - Practical #OSINT methods and case work. - A lot of baseball and its #Analytics , from the #MLB to Japan's #NPB , the #WBC , and the Australian #ABL . - The mechanics of #Simulation and modelling, applied to both cognitive and physical warfare. - Whatever else catches my interest. ### Obsidian The site lives in my Obsidian vault and is published through their Publish service. It also relies on source code from [Marco Noris](https://lab.marconoris.com/marconoris), which I'm grateful for. These aren't polished essays. You'll see work in progress, rough analysis, half-formed theories, and methods I'm still sorting out. I'd rather show the working than only the result. ### About Me I'm a PhD candidate at the University of Canberra's National Security Institute. My research uses node-based network modelling to analyse the cognitive and physical sides of warfare. I also like putting the skills to practical use. I've done a fair bit of online #OSINT work, including tracking organised crime, documenting evidence of war crimes, and supporting open-source projects in active conflict zones. I used to do most of it under a screen name, but I'm posting more openly these days. Before academia I worked in media, where I built broadcast, statistical, and analytics frameworks from the ground up. Outside that, I'm into sport, science fiction, and spreadsheet gaming, which all tend to turn up in these notes. Want to connect?
