Suncatcher

A project for studying interactions on social media. Suncatcher archives Bluesky posts and lets you query them with SQL through an interactive Lisp REPL.

From there, you can feed posts into models like Jev for large-scale classification, run algorithms over entire threads, and build further analyses on the dataset.

Health research

We're also pursuing health research under Chakany Research.
