I build web platforms for digital media provenance and physical prototyping. I specialize in bridging the gap between hardware constraints, system-level audio tools, and modern web frameworks.
ObraVera โ Creator Registry & Media Provenance
- A platform for registering creative work and verifying its provenance โ combining cryptographically signed credentials, audio watermarking, and content fingerprinting.
- Tech: C++ watermarking libraries (audiowmark) and deep learning models (AudioSeal) integrated into a Django/Docker environment.
- Writing: I publish on provenance and the creator economy at obravera.substack.com.
I believe that engineering extends beyond code.
- Music & Electronics: Through Sonciel I'm developing a DAW plugin concept for studio session attribution โ capturing who played what and carrying it through to crediting and rights registration. I also design and prototype guitar effects and 3D-printed enclosures.
- Fiction: I am the author of Elements of Risk and The Horn Mansion.
