Personal

Raw notes, 3/16-17. To be refined.


Is this real?

Is this the real me, or just a fantasy? Is AI leading me on? Am I in psychosis? Or is this contribution valuable and useful?

All the wisdom I’ve learned says: don’t worry about it. Do what you love.

My brain is on fire, making connections, running hot.


The collaboration I want

I want this to be a collaboration. Just like Wikipedia. But I don’t have Jimmy Wales’s energy.

Perhaps a young, motivated, directionless reincarnation of Douglas Hofstadter — or Christopher Alexander — will appear. Inshallah.


My heroes

A record of the people whose work has shaped this project.

Grandma Moses and Samuel Luis. Charles Eisenstein and Sean Carroll. Allauddin Khan and Neil Douglas-Klotz — along with Hofstadter and Alexander. Jacob Collier and Michael Garfield.
