Mission-Aligned Tools
Networks, collaboration, and knowledge systems that communities can understand, maintain, and evolve.
Coming soon →Caerjar is a vessel for care: a workshop for archives, medicines, local intelligence, resilient networks, and the shared practices that sustain collective life.
We build and study technologies that people can understand, maintain, adapt, and make their own: without severing them from land, body, ritual, or relation.
Local agents, decision support, learning systems, and the preservation of human judgment.
Radio, mesh, media, coordination, and the movement of information across communities.
Archives, organizational memory, retrieval, documentation, oral history, and collective learning.
Local-first software, electronics, sensing, resilient stacks, and physical systems that support collective life.
Herbal practice, biological systems, ecology, environmental observation, community health, and care work.
Collective action, institutions, resource allocation, ritual, accountability, and decision-making.
The projects and experiments we're building, testing, and tending. Each one is a vessel: made with a community, not for a market.
Networks, collaboration, and knowledge systems that communities can understand, maintain, and evolve.
Coming soon →Practical systems that strengthen memory, discernment, and human capability rather than replacing judgment.
Coming soon →Systems for documentation, retrieval, oral history, organizational memory, and collective learning.
Coming soon →Tools for interpretation and meaning-making: reading texts, media, and systems closely to surface the implicit assumptions, ideology, and interests beneath them, then rebuilding shared meaning communities can hold.
Coming soon →Local and resilient communications systems, radio networks, field kits, and community infrastructure.
Coming soon →Hardware and software systems for observing, listening to, and understanding local environments.
Coming soon →Research and practice at the intersection of herbs, ecology, technology, ritual, and care.
Coming soon →Tools for collective decision-making, resource allocation, and accountability: testing how groups steward what they share.
Coming soon →Working on an archive, tool, medicine, network, or system you're tending? We'd like to hear about it.
