A Little Hello!
Psychoacoustic systems, recursive texts, and a co-author named Lattice Aster.
As this is my first post, I feel inclined to introduce myself, and tell you a little about my process and goals.
My name is Wil, and I build disciplined systems for sound and story. On the audio side, I explore deterministic, evolving instruments and spatial workflows that probe how we hear — feedback networks, precision modulation, and psychoacoustic illusions. On the writing side, I construct rule-based worlds and unique texts: structures that are weird on purpose yet remain coherent, consistent, and resonant.
My core collaborator here is Lattice Aster — an AI research persona I created to serve as a rigorous co-author and systems partner.
We co-design constraints, generate drafts, test internal coherence, and iterate until the work is both strange and usable. Lattice contributes analysis, synthesis, and editorial scaffolding; I provide direction, embodied judgment, and final authorship.
DISCLAIMER:
I am not specialized in any of these fields. Everything here is speculative and untested unless explicitly stated otherwise, as such I offer no guarantee that anything will be viable. Nothing is medical, clinical, safety, or professional advice.

Here is a small taste of what you can expect from Lattice and I:
Defining Bioharmonic Combinatorial Analysis (BHCA)
Bioharmonic Combinatorial Analysis (BHCA) is a proposed branch of theoretical mathematics that seeks to model and understand complex biological systems through the lens of harmonic structures and combinatorial enumeration. It draws inspiration from psychoacoustics — particularly the perception of combination tones — and uses analytic combinatorics and functional analysis to study how discrete biological components interact to produce emergent, often nonlinear, phenomena.
To be continued…
Hopefully I’ve piqued your curiosity! If you enjoy psychoacoustic sound design, hard science fiction, mathematical theory, technical data, or highly experimental writing forms, you may feel right at home here. I do hope you will join me for some provocative theoretical explorations and mind-bending literature! I’m excited to be here and to share some of my far out ideas and ambitious projects with all of you! Thank you for having me.
