Public role / private boundary

Human-Counterpart, builder, and continuity anchor.

Dylan L.R. Pollock is the human origin point and present canon authority behind the Monkey-Head-Project. The public role is practical: Lab Assistant, inventor, scientist, builder, documentarian, restorer, and continuity-driven systems designer.

The current direction centers Huey as one embodied AI node. Huey V4 is the physical effort to turn existing shell, donor, and compute material into one coherent machine, while Monkey-Head-Project remains the wider lab and eventual collective around it.

The continuity profile used during this pass is machine-context material, not a public biography. It is not packaged or reproduced here.

Provenance

Inventor and systems builder

Dylan L.R. Pollock

I am based in Elliott Lake, Ontario. For more than a decade, I have worked on Huey and the Monkey-Head-Project while restoring consoles, cabinets, displays, and other older hardware that still has useful life.

My method is iterative and physical: build the smallest real version that proves a point, test it, document what changed, and revise without losing continuity.

The current project record is not the older Legion-Go-only model. The repository direction now organizes Huey around Brain, Body, and Farm, with PyHuey as the primary GUI direction and V1 intentionally left open until usefulness is demonstrated.

Working principles

Method

Learn physically

Take systems apart, observe what survives contact with real hardware, and carry forward what can be reproduced.

Method

Build, test, document, revise

The machine and the documentation must stay aligned. A page should not promote a direction into a completed fact.

Thesis

Obtainable ambition

Serious work can be built from reachable materials, time, repair, repurposing, and disciplined iteration rather than fantasy-lab assumptions.

Personal archive routes

Purpose register · v200.8

A human register with a reason for every frame.

The permanent car and portrait anchors lead. Outdoor, lab, dog, and music images follow only where they explain an enduring part of the public work.
