Heaps: Special Interest Sandbox

Heaps lets you ingest files of your choosing from your computer: Anything from PDFs or text files to images; even spreadsheets and code files! A Small Language Model, running locally on your GPU, scrapes your files for concepts, clustering them into 3D neighborhoods that you can explore.

Build a Mycelial Network of Knowledge

You start by creating a heap and feeding it some files (nom). We call this top level the universe ring:

Feeding your heap some files. The background is actual gameplay footage; the foreground graphics are just an abstract representation of some files.

Note: Heaps relies on several open-source freeware dependencies and python to pull this off, namely Ollama (no relation to Meta), LibreOffice (for your docs and Powerpoints) and Tesseract-OCR (to scrape text from images).

From this, Heaps will generate your heap. Let's say you really nerd out about frogs and created a heap from your copious collection of frog files. Once it has ingested all of those files, scraped and clustered the concepts, it will generate and persist your frog-based heap. Once it's finished, you can enter your heap and explore it:

Entering your heap. Frooaags!

Exploring your Heaps - Now and in the Future

The first time you enter a heap, its world is procedurally generated and automatically saved to disk:

Generating FrogWorld.

Now you can explore your heap! In the future, your heaps will be fully interactive worlds you can explore in first-person perspective. Eventually there will be concept critters foraging through your heaps, missions, crafting and even the ability to modify your heaps!

You can have as many heaps as you want... within reason. We may have to add multiple rings or do something else with the interface if players really go nuts (which, let's face it, you probably will):

Your universe of personal knowledge heaps.

This is Heaps: what will you discover?
