Agents
I'm building a small fleet of personal AI agents. Pilot keeps context about me, reads my bookmarks and feeds, and can ping me when something's worth sharing. Captain is a public travel agent that finds and tracks flights. Concierge lives on this site.
These experiments are to help me understand LLMs better: how to design conversational systems and build autonomous applications. A Raspberry Pi holds a local copy of the data and code.
Makerspaces
I believe the right model for institution-building in Nigeria is small, distributed makerspaces.
My vision of the future is a large network of community-run makerspaces around the country, built on top of existing infrastructure, but optimized to be sustainable and productive.
To prove this out, I've been working with Tushar Hathiramani, Tolu Kalejaiye and Toke Joseph to develop the Makerspace at 30 Ajasa Street into a production centre for clay, electronics and 3D printing.
Animation
Two years ago, I published my first film, Hanky Panky. It started as a project to understand how animation is made in Nigeria.
After that, I decided to incubate an animated series and make it successful. So I started working with the E Dey Happen team to develop their show, and we've been at it for some time now.
My immediate ambition is to make EDH a globally recognized series. Underneath this, my deeper motivation is to materially contribute to scaling Nigerian animation into a global industry.
