About Sekiya

A quiet room for difficult systems.

Sekiya is an independent place for computer science and computational experimentation. It is for elegant experiments, strange behaviour, complexity made visible, and systems built so their evidence and limits can be inspected.

What starts it

A precise question is enough to begin; everything else has to earn its place.

Areas

  • Models & Statistics — uncertain, delayed, and slightly unruly systems
  • Systems & Security — traces, hidden state, failure, and recovery
  • Agentic Systems — autonomous software with some explaining to do
  • Computation — simulation and visual machinery for complex behaviour

What stays

The useful parts: the code, the limits, the failures, and enough of the path that someone else can see where the result came from.

Public work

Public work is linked. Private work is named on the index, but stays private until it is ready. One useful tool istrace-npm — a small instrument for seeing what an npm lifecycle script touched, spawned, and contacted.
