Self-published book

A Field Guide to Epistemic Failure

A fifteen-mode diagnostic taxonomy for recognizing how knowledge-bearing systems cease to function even while records, expertise, and documentation remain present. The book separates recognition, diagnosis, judgment, and action rather than treating them as one move.

Publicly distributed research series

Earlier PortusSophia™ research corpus

A coherent, dependency-mapped series with shared terminology, declared non-goals, reading routes, and evaluation checks. It demonstrates sustained independent research without being represented as identical to the current field architecture.

Draft companion-series manuscripts

TRI · PLA · FTM · EPS

A coordinated philosophy-of-science sequence examining structural resolution, explanatory burden, distinctions among framework/theory/model, and a candidate Energy–Phase–State primitive. No public version numbers are asserted here; the manuscripts preserve explicit capacity horizons and do not present internal survival as external validation.
