Daedalus built wings so Icarus could rise. That's the half of the myth everyone remembers: ambition, escape, the reach past your own limits.
The half that gets forgotten is the Labyrinth. Daedalus was also the craftsman who built the structure to hold something dangerous, commissioned to design a system that actually worked. He is the only figure in the myth who did both competently. He didn't just dream the escape. He engineered it.
That's the split this imprint is built on. Wings is the interior work, dreams, patterns, the life examined from the inside. Labyrinth is the structural work, leadership, teams, the systems that hold what you've learned. Most presses pick one. Daedalus Press exists because the two were never really separate.
A dream intelligence method for reflective adults who suspect there's more signal in their inner life than they've been taught to find. Not mystical, not clinical. A practical system for reading what your own mind is telling you overnight.

SIGNALS in leadership. The operational work, an operating system for recruitment, alignment, development and performance, built from what the earlier books observed. Working name, imprint continuing under Daedalus Press regardless of the final title.
The philosophical work, written last, from the high ground of having done the other three. The wisdom that integrates interior, narrative and system into one worldview.
More than two decades in high-performance commercial leadership taught him composure, pattern recognition, and how to read what's really going on beneath what people say. For most of those years he treated his own dreams as noise.
A period of genuine upheaval proved him wrong. The same instinct for reading signals that served him at work turned out to apply just as well to the hours after dark, and to the teams, systems, and choices that led there. Daedalus Press is the result: one voice, four books, working the same instinct at different altitudes.
He writes under the Daedalus Press imprint and lives in Cambridge.
