About

Michael J. Horton Jr.

Independent researcher and engineer working across hardware, software, production systems, and systems-oriented research.

My engineering background spans embedded systems, hardware integration, software engineering, site reliability engineering, and independent R&D.

Research

My current work examines measurement, causal attribution, control, temporal organization, and agency in complex systems, with particular attention to how conclusions change when analytical boundaries change.
