Welcome to Episteme Research Studio

By Denis Hakszer
“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” — Marcel Proust

Welcome. You’ve found the threshold of my research studio—a space where serious thinking, historical method, and the quiet clarity of long-form inquiry converge.

This site is not a blog in the modern sense. It is a studio. A public notebook. A cultivated field of half-formed thoughts, fully-formed essays, annotated readings, and reflections on practice.


Who am I?

I am a researcher, data engineer, and archaeologist—committed to reconstructing ancient networks and building tools for modern research. My work navigates the boundary between computational clarity and humanistic depth.


What is this place?

The Episteme Research Studio is an independent project dedicated to three things:

  1. Networked Knowledge
    Mapping, modeling, and understanding how ideas, people, and institutions connect—past and present.
  2. Tools for Thinking
    Designing workflows, software, and methods that support deep, deliberate research.
  3. Writing as Craft
    Producing essays, logs, and notes that speak with the clarity and care of slow thought.

  • About Me: background, philosophy, and my academic compass
  • The Studio: aims, collaborators, current work
  • Research Log: a living notebook of evolving questions
  • Library: essays, long-form work, and published thought

This is a beginning. A starting place. A space to think.
