A katana at the moment before the draw: the guard pushed a thumb's width from the black lacquer scabbard, a gold collar and three centimetres of steel showing, a yellow cord wound round the scabbard.

Engineer and founder of Bolted. I make interactive things where they are hardest to fake: AI, AR and VR, 3D and games. This is the workbench.

 Iai · The draw

Stillness, then the cut.

Most of the work is the part nobody sees: the model, the frame budget, the path for the visitor without a GPU. Then it moves, once, and it is right.

The blade half drawn: forty centimetres of steel between the guard and the scabbard's mouth.

Three stages, three rooms

  1.  Shu · Keep the form

    About

    An engineer first. Shipping since 2005: games, apps, spatial software, the tools under them.

  2.  Ha · Break it

    Work

    Eight things made at Bolted that broke a habit of their kind, from Vision Pro to a square you can walk.

  3.  Ri · Leave it

    Labs

    Experiments with no client and no deadline: AI, AR and VR, 3D and games. Some of them play.

The blade drawn clear of the scabbard, level across the frame, its temper line a pale wave along the edge.

One sword, drawn live on WebGPU. No video, no canvas library.
Looking down the blade from the guard: the steel runs out of focus toward its point.

 Hamon · The temper line

The edge is where the work shows.

A blade is hardened at the edge and left soft at the spine. The line between the two is the maker's hand. Here is mine.

The edge, close: the frosted temper line beside the mirror of the blade's flat.
