HiddenCove is a monthly journal about what happens when governance meets operational reality. It’s written for environments where digital systems control physical processes and failure has material consequences.

Each essay engages foundational ideas from systems theory, safety science, and institutional governance. I also draw on literature and philosophy as lenses for the choices governance requires. These ideas are tested against the environments I work in: biotech, validated systems, critical infrastructure.

One substantive essay per month. Written slowly, from inside the systems it examines.

For practitioners who hold governance authority where failure matters and frameworks meet operational complexity.
