I write to unravel patterns — in myth, mind, and matter.
Author. Systems thinker. Stranger in Stranger Lands.
Here, no idea is too early, too strange, or too foundational to question.
The First Principles blog is a space for deep, unhurried thought — a search for clarity at the intersection of physics, mind, meaning, and method. Not answers, but frameworks.
Not noise, but signals worth chasing.
Held in Silence
A space for the smallest stillness and the fiercest quiet.
A haunt of voices that tremble, rage, or rest — each entered in silence, and remaining.
Here, poetry listens first.
Magnificent Tales of Doomed Kingdoms
Experience the personal struggles of the rulers trying to bring up their children so that they can become rightful rulers in a world surrounded by their enemies. A telling of victories that are worth nothing compared to the unrecoverable losses. Let your mind witness acts that would otherwise be considered unimaginable and of the turns of fate that can spell disaster for the kingdom.
