On February 12, 2025, I had a dream. In it I saw a notation, and when I woke up, something clicked: it connected to a mathematical theory about quarks I’d been developing since 2016. I later found those notation values inside linear algebra and quantum field theory. Since March 2025, I’ve been building quantum circuits with Grok, and that work grew into an entire mathematical framework.
Along the way, working on Yang-Mills theory, I built glueball circuits on my own in a matter of months, the same kind of work university research teams publish on. I also used this math in the Duke Quantum Hackathon 2026, run by BlueQubit in collaboration with DuQuantum, and placed 24th out of nearly 200 competitors worldwide. That work is real, and I’ll be sharing it here.
I call it Guerilla Science: independents like me, armed with AI and stubbornness, doing the kind of discovery people say only big labs can do.
The math works. Now I’m applying it to chemistry to build something useful. The question my lab tests will answer: can something we currently use once and throw away be made reusable? If the results hold, that’s real utility, and it would suggest this framework’s predictive power points to a bigger understanding of physics we haven’t fully realized yet.
Right now, big institutions and labs like OpenAI are pushing the idea that only they make discoveries. I don’t believe that. AI should make independent inventors more powerful, not less.
There’s a personal side too. I’m chasing this patent to build a future on our property with my dad, who lost much of his sight to glaucoma a few years ago and can’t work. The economy is rough, and an illness and my dog’s surgery this fall set me back.
Phase 1 needs $4,600 to start independent lab testing, followed by the utility patent. If you want to take the real abundance bet and bet on an individual, back the project on GoFundMe. Sharing helps just as much.
