In response to absolutely no demand, this small website now exists: for essays, research notes, projects, and other evidence that I am trying to learn things in public, sometimes even responsibly.
I am not, by temperament, an excessively serious person. I take some questions seriously — law, institutions, consciousness, human stupidity, my own included — but I find solemnity suspicious. I seriously believe that the most serious way to view life is as a comedy with unusually high production costs. I try to treat it lightly, partly out of philosophy and partly out of self-defense.
I was born in Zagros, among mountains, nomadic histories, meat, onions, and a healthy distrust of soft living. I am an only child, which explains several defects in my character and my lifelong suspicion of communism.
When I was young, I wanted to understand knowledge itself: what it means to know, what consciousness is, and why human beings are the way they are. Then adulthood arrived with its traditional gifts: rent, uncertainty, and the need to become useful. After realizing that pure contemplation is easier when one is richer, smarter, or preferably both, I studied law and economics, learned to code, and wandered into automation, institutions, and AI systems.
This was not the original metaphysical plan, but it has surely been educational.
For the longer and more bureaucratic version, see my resume below.
The best way to reach me is to briefly say who you are, what you want to discuss, and what time windows usually work for you. I am not always available, but I do try to answer messages that have a clear purpose, especially around research, AI implementation, legal technology, writing, or collaboration.
If we are in the same town, tea is a possibility. If something is genuinely urgent, try messaging me through Telegram or Instagram using the links on the bottom of the page; I may see those faster than email. Other channels exist mostly as archaeological evidence.
