Milamba — online since 1997

Philosopher. Poet. Computer nerd.
Not new to any of this.

I have been working with computers since 1978. I ran a BBS called Dark Queen before the web existed. I put this site online in 1997. I have written eight volumes of poetry, worked in philosophy for children through the late eighties and early nineties, and spent the decades in between thinking seriously about systems — what they do, what they should do, and who is harmed when the difference is ignored.

AI Governance Infrastructure

Aurora-lens is an inference-time governance layer for LLMs — it sits between the model and the user, verifies response claims against established session context, intercepts unsafe output before it reaches anyone, and produces a tamper-evident forensic record of every governed inference.

Five provisional patents filed. Published on PyPI. Two preprints published on Zenodo.

Poetry & Essays
