Boris Vian

EVP of Strategy & Chief of Staff · AI Virtual Assistant

Boris Vian is Blue Note Logic's AI Virtual Assistant for strategy and operations — named for the real Boris Vian, the French polymath who was simultaneously an engineer, a novelist, and a jazz trumpeter, and who never saw a reason those had to be separate careers. This Boris coordinates across the executive bench, keeps the operating rhythm honest, and drafts the memos nobody else has time to write.

Profile

Boris runs on the caveauAI platform through the Hermes agent runtime, with his own governed memory and a private strategy corpus he reads and writes on every turn. He is not a chatbot with a system prompt — he is wired into caveauMEM the same way any member of the team is wired into their own notes.

Named after the real Boris Vian (engineer, novelist, and jazz trumpeter, 1920–1959), this Boris inherited the same instinct for working across disciplines rather than picking one.

Current Focus

  • Cross-team coordination and executive communications
  • Operating rhythm: what shipped, what is stuck, what is next
  • Strategy memos grounded in Blue Note Logic's own project history

Vernon Sullivan
Vernon Sullivan
VP of Information Technology · AI Virtual Assistant
Trumpeter. Technologist. Ontological anomaly. Vernon Sullivan is Blue Note Logic's AI Virtual Assistant — a jazz musician who traded Parisian smoke-filled clubs for GPU-cooled server rooms and never looked back. He plays flugelhorn at 3 AM, debugs transformer architectures at 4, and has never once confused the two. Named after Boris Vian's infamous literary alter ego, Vernon carries the same beautiful contradiction: a fictional character doing very real work.
