UNCERTAIN UNIVERSE
A place for seekers not finders, for edge-explorers
and voyagers without abode - homesick for places
that never existed
CHARTING
UNCERTAINTY
What you are reading is a work-in-progress and an ongoing experiment. Part e-book, part digital garden, part collaborative project, it explores a pervasive feature of our existence: the nature of Uncertainty.
Fracture
Our current understanding is fractured and pre-paradigmatic. Different disciplines define uncertainty in mutually incompatible ways. This is my attempt to re-draw the shape of uncertainty.
BETWEEN THOUGHT
AND THEATER
It is the ongoing diary of my first-principles exploration into the unknown. Although I am not a scholar, it is quite scholarly in places. Although I am not an artist, it is quite artistic in others.
It is both playful and serious,
abstract and concrete.
Its structure is fractal, but you can read it like a linear book,
or freely skip around the knowledge graph.
