The Cabinet of Curious Studies

Eight disciplines. 24 courses. 288 guided hours.

What it does

Serious, source-led learning for subjects ordinary catalogues leave out. Eight disciplines span 24 beginner, intermediate and advanced courses with 288 guided hours. Each module combines clear objectives, guided reading, public primary and secondary sources, an on-site notebook, quizzes, revision and optional AI feedback. Completion earns a private, non-accredited certificate, clearly not a degree or regulated qualification.

Explore 24 self-paced, source-led online courses in mythology, folklore, cryptozoology and unusual cultural history. Independent study with supportive assessment and verifiable completion records.

Eight subject Cabinets. Three progressive study levels in each. Approximately 384 guided hours in the complete collection. Move from a fascinating claim to a source-led case, a defensible interpretation and a private body of work you can revisit. Every level combines guided reading, real public collections, Curator Case Labs, a patient AI-supported Memo Tutor and earned completion certificates. One-off purchases. No subscription. Self-paced account access and unlimited revision-led retakes. The Cabinet is designed around visible learner outcomes. Read deeply when you want to, but always know what to do next and what the work is building towards. Every module includes a topic-specific…from curiousstudies.digidentai.com

  • Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes&#x2F;sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
