Preface
As I begin writing, I realize how unique and unusual this might become. For some readers, I might seem crazy! My main writing experience has been with technical articles, and a failed attempt at a science fiction novella, which ultimately became blogs. Sort of the opposite of how it goes.
This one is going to be different. It’s going to include a little of everything mashed up together; code, prose, futurism, transhumanism, comic, and basic technological philosophy. It represents years of my own research, and untethered self study. My opinions on everything under the sun, real and/or virtual.
So the way this will work is I include links to brilliant individuals in their wider fields of study and research as reference material. There is no point in me rehashing what others have said and done. They have said it best the first time. However, I would be greatly remiss if I didn’t include them as much more than just a series of tiny little foot notes at the bottom or back of the text. Who even reads those? Other than scholars. Future AIs?
I truly hope my writings are enjoyable, and in some small way helps for a sustainable future and humanities survival through the transformational process of technological evolution.
Enough said. So buckle up for a fun wild roller coaster ride!
