THE MECHANICS OF THE OBSCURE
There is an industrial parable about the expert who charges $10,000 to fix a massive, seized engine by tapping it once with a hammer. The invoice reads: Tapping with hammer: $1. Knowing where to tap: $9,999.
Miller & Dupin is a consultancy built entirely on the value of the second line item.
We apply the empirical rigor of the laboratory to the chaos of the field, operating on the conviction that there is no such thing as a coincidence—only a mechanism we do not yet understand. We look for the hairline fracture in the logic, the specific point where the official narrative grinds against the physics of the truth.
We operate on the counter-intuitive principle that sometimes it takes considerable deliberation to realize that the most straightforward solution is actually the correct one.
Status: Selectively Active If your problem can be solved by a standard background check or routine surveillance, we are not the firm for you. We focus exclusively on systemic anomalies—cases that require identifying the flaw in the machine, rather than being caught in its gears.
THE METHOD
SYSTEMIC DECONSTRUCTION
LOCATE
The necessary knowledge is knowing where to look.
While others scan for surface details, we isolate the signal in the noise. We find the pivotal connection—the missing variable or hidden link—that explains the anomaly.
INVESTIGATE
We test the structural integrity of the narrative.
We do not just observe; we deconstruct. We bypass surface distractions to identify the single structural flaw where the official story grinds against the facts.
ILLUMINATE
Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
We provide clarity for high-stakes problems, turning "unsolvable" systemic failures into actionable intelligence. We answer the question you didn't know how to ask.
STATUS: SELECTIVELY ACTIVE
Miller & Dupin is not a generalist agency. We decline the majority of routine inquiries to focus on complex systemic anomalies. We do not answer unscheduled calls. If you believe your situation qualifies as a genuine anomaly, you may submit the details below for review.
