Unnamed 2026-02-20
A wiki built from a three-person call between Pete Kaminski, Jessie Upp, and The Nameless One on February 20, 2026.
Three friends — a technologist, a network weaver, and a pattern seer — spent about three hours catching up and weaving threads. The conversation ranged from water sommelier encounters to the architecture of a new civilization, from AI agents that gossip on your behalf to the question of what it means to stay nameless in a world that demands names.
Note from Pete: The AI that built this wiki didn't attend the call, it processed a speech-to-text transcript of the call. There are subtle mistakes and elisions due to lossiness in the transcription process. The call wiki is a really good representation of the call, but it is not perfect, nor checked carefully by humans. Caveat lector, and ask one of the human attendees for ground truth when in doubt.
The Larger Pattern
- The Nameless Can Never Be Named — a journalistic overview of the conversation and what it reveals
- The Aquifer, v2 — a first-person narrative synthesis (v1)
Reference Documents
- Inter-Face Manifesto — Pete's standalone vision document for Inter-Face, laying out the problem, the architecture, the principles, and how to participate
Major Conversation Threads
- Interface Protocol (IFP) — Pete's vision of AI ambassador agents that gossip pairwise, negotiate schemas, and surface connections between people working on similar things
- Namelessness and Identity — The Nameless One's practice of staying unnamed, and all three grappling with how to name (or not name) what they're building together
- Agentic AI Course — Pete's 6-week course on using Claude Code and agentic AI, and the emerging co-op of course stewards around it
- Circles and Emergent Organization — The Nameless One's pattern of small self-governing circles doing 90-day quests, and how these circles find each other
- DayBalancer — Jessie's living system for cooperative networks, tracking circulation rather than growth
- Regenerative Economics and Currencies — A wide-ranging dialogue about value, currency, evaluators, proof of worthiness, and what replaces money
- Local Community Building in Sandpoint — The Nameless One's work with women's circles and local businesses in Idaho
- Ecosystem Layer Company — The concept of a nameless commons layer connecting sovereign businesses and individuals
