Implements a Brainfuck interpreter in Python and shows Church-encoded booleans and arithmetic that compute addition, multiplication and exponentiation purely via lambdas; builds a Git-like content-addressed repo that hashes arbitrary Python lists, tuples and dicts for commits and plans merge/diff/remotes; parses Bosendorfer raw piano dumps into MIDI using Needleman–Wunsch alignment in a tool called churny and visualizes errors; generates graded readers by simulated annealing over vocabulary order for the Greek New Testament; prototypes CLE (CPython on bare metal) and a working Apple II emulator with CPU, I/O and audio glitches still being tuned.
