FIG. 01 — System architecture.

This is the engineering, shown plainly, a course project and not an artwork. During an AI engineering bootcamp I built a conversational agent trained on the lore of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, hours of source transcribed into a vector database the agent could search and speak from, in a cloned voice. It won the final Hackshow.

The subject was a game. What mattered was the machine: a system that ingests a body of material and answers in character. That is the same architecture the rest of my work now runs on, the agent on this site trained on my own life, and the six voices of Coro Interno.

Diaries is where that capability came online. Everything since has pointed it inward.
