His scientific interest sits right at the intersection of modern artificial intelligence research and ancient history and as you can imagine, the conversation was wildly interesting. More details here https://t.co/mAAvF1gcAN
🔥Heads up! I recently conducted an online interview with a fascinating scholar, professor and head of the Department of Cognitive Science at one of the European universities.
What if the Big Bang wasn’t the beginning... but the turning of a cosmic page? Cutting-edge physicists and ancient mystics are arriving at the same shocking possibility:
That reality has two sides: matter & mind, the seen and the unseen & w every Big Bang, they might swap places.
Pierre-Charles Dupin (1784 – 1873)—a graduate of the École Polytechnique, naval engineer, and professor of descriptive geometry—spent years in the French Navy studying how the shape of a surface affects reflected light and the distribution of mechanical stresses.
In this episode we’ll follow the unlikely collaboration between a Maya historian and a still-classified NSA cryptanalyst, as they decode a 260-day ritual calendar — what may be one of the world’s oldest visual analog computers. Watch here - https://t.co/5CeBMLWnLT
A declassified NSA report reveals a stunning fact: the ancient Maya had a fully functioning astronomical computing system, encoded in their sacred codices.
This “device” didn’t need electricity or microchips — it ran on time, math, and algorithms.
I've got some truly special material... I could hardly believe what I was reading... I'm working with archives of some libraries and institutes to gather a bit more source material for a video production and there’s already been some success. Work in progress.
New episode on YouTube! What if the key to the universe was discovered over a century ago—and then forgotten? In the late 19th century, a young math prodigy named William Clifford proposed a radical idea: that reality itself is woven from the same fabric as the mind.
...this series pushes the boundaries of what we call “alive.” Are we truly alone, or have we just been looking in the wrong place?
Watch the documentary and decide for yourself.

What If Life Exists Beyond Biology?
We've always assumed intelligence belongs to biological life—humans, animals, organisms we can see and study.
But what if life and intelligence exist in ways we’ve never imagined?
We are not gods—just one class of beings. And so, gods, too, are merely a class of beings, not something eternal and ineffable.”

And then, by the principle of analogy, beings far greater and more powerful than us must still obey cause-and-effect chains, having their own beginnings and endings.
Just as we are like gods compared to viruses and bacteria, yet they can still kill us despite being so simple.
Someone emailed me a comment that I believe adds to our discussion (translated by me):
"The examples of the bacterial and viral kingdoms help illustrate how phenomena from coexisting worlds (‘parallel universes’) might function.
Could such patterns within us and in the world function as independent actors with preferences and control? Could thoughts, for instance, which are basically patterns in the brain, actually become independent thinkers? Watch - https://t.co/YLmxTm0Tsd
