“We can’t just confine evolution to biology, we have to expand it” One of the slow-burning realizations we keep stumbling face-first into is that our beloved tendency to compartmentalize the world may be effective on some fronts, but it obscures us from seeing the bigger pictures at play. To see…

Navigating space and time via immersive exploration and achieving agency via feeling our way through reality — Parts and Particles In the early fall, something cool happens to the lake water: it becomes heavily saturated with particles of all kinds, so much so that it changes the perceptual experience in quite an interesting way. The water becomes potent with pollen-like fibers from the aged and unobserved fields of seaweed below…

“We all have a quest to increase the scope of our knowledge… It does not mean what was done in the past was wrong or a mistake. It only means that every theory has its limitations. Extrapolating this, we could say that no theory or model is good for everything or forever. “ — Rajendra Gupta — This is a developing story. Schisms and anachronisms A million miles away from us, the James Webb Space Telescope silently orbits our host star as it looks further than we’ve ever been able to look through the infinitude of space. …

The adaptive optics of our conscious observations help us navigate atop the wave functions of potential towards all that we deem meaningful — Meaning Means Everything It’s an annoying concept to build upon (and a pretty bad starting point for this article) but here it is nonetheless: Without observation, any given system exists in a state of incoherent and meaningless disorder. Hypothetically remove any and all conscious awareness of our own species, or of our place…

On the way by which nothing can mean everything — Open Space If you’re observing the Milky Way from the Southern hemisphere, the backdrop behind the spiraling arm of our galaxy is lit up, because you’re looking inward at the galactic spiral, towards the bright center of its coalescence. But if you’re in the Northern hemisphere, you see the darkness of space…

When the highs are high, we can move mountains; when they’re low, we drown in the wave pattern. Overlaying neurochemistry to the physics of potentiality — Physics of Potentiality If we can effectuate the right kind of psychological and neurochemical configuration, we can propagate an energetic level of conviction in our perspective that safeguards us (and our experience) against a diminishment of possibility.

Navigating the possibilities around us via an expanded perspective of our potential — “You may not feel outstandingly robust, but if you are an average-sized adult you will contain within your modest frame no less than 7 X 10¹⁸ joules of potential energy — enough to explode with the force of thirty very large hydrogen bombs, assuming you knew how to liberate it…

Whether time is a circle, a sphere, or a 4D tesseract, it’s about using whatever reference points we can to stretch our conscious perspectives open as far as possible — “There is no linear evolution; there is only circumambulation of the self. Uniform development exists, at most, only at the beginning; later everything points towards the centre.” — C. Jung While the idea of circularized time has been around for longer than we could actually imagine, its trend as a…

On the reification of our conscious perception of time — Without necessarily realizing it, we tend to move quite dynamically through space and time — at least much less unilaterally than we often give ourselves credit for. While true that we’re not always cognizant of the subtle ways that the future works to inspire our present, nor the ways that…
