Principia Primordia: Meditations on the Structure of reality – Introduction pt.2
I’d like to offer a second part of the introduction, and revise some of what I have written previously, as well as contextualise and build upon the conceptual geometries stated. This will be useful for the next sections. First of all, I’d like to replace polarity with symmetry- as I think that polarity is a…

Meditations on a Philosophy of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
I’d like to begin by introducing the concept of a dialectic; opposing conceptual forces. It is necessary for internal reasoning- with a good example being Socrates and his ‘daemon’, or Jesus and the ‘voice of god’ (which was essentially his own conscience), Descartes and his ‘great doubt’ too. I think Hegel was the first to…

A Game Theory of Ethics
When people hear game theory it might conjure a range of ideas.

I would like to put forward some ideas and ideals of democracy, actionable in this modern time given the technological capabilities we possess. I do not suggest these in conspiracy, but in votive of the wellbeing of my fellow human beings. While reading, you may well think to yourself “there’s no way that the people…

Exploring Brazilian Jiu Jitsu: Reflections and Techniques
This is the first entry in my Brazilian Jiu Juitsu journal. I’m going to try to write down what I learn so that I can re-visualise, revisit, and revise what I learn as I go. I’ll probably extrapolate figuratively and apply the metaphor of my BJJ journey to life too. It translates as “gentle art”,…
