Books and Major Essays:
Why all the drama? How do we attain peace?: Boredom and interest are little understood and greatly underestimated as motivating factors in our lives and societies. This is a summary of what I learnt from one of the leading researchers into this topic. It is surprisingly profound and useful!
What is the highest perceived benefit or aspiration of my Life?: An impromptu inspired response to that question, with many links to aspects of this work that directly relate to my highest aspiration and how I perceive that this work could be of greatest benefit.
The Objective Information Process & Virtual Subjective Experiences Hypothesis: A bottom up reformulation of the virtual reality hypothesis and the philosophical foundations of science without the distortions of naive realism and all the problems and paradoxes that it entails.
System Science of Virtual Reality: Toward the Unification of Empirical and Subjective Science. A detailed report on the main mathematical / theoretical aspects of this work. It uses the principles of general simulation to derive the foundations of quantum mechanics - suggesting that quantum information processes animate the classical universe analogous to a virtual reality simulation.
What is Consciousness?: discusses some of the main ramifications of this paradigm on our understanding of ourselves and the nature of the world that we experience.
The Red Pill eBook: Systems Analysis of Mind, Knowledge, 'the World' and Holistic Science A long essay describing the overall world-view arising from this work.
The Gaian-Ego Hypothesis eBook: Systems Analysis of Organisation, Ego, Control and Authoritarianism An ebook describing a systems perspective on civilisation, the growing systemic crisis and how to deal with it.
A Conceptual Bridge: From Science to Spirituality Another long essay describing the overall world-view arising from this work.

The Main Sections

General Discussions: on the approach of the work presented on this website, on the overall computational metaphysics, on some applications of these concepts and also some related issues. This provides a descriptive introduction to the key ideas, using the conceptual languages of perennial wisdom and system theory.

Mathematical Analysis: a detailed computational metaphysics of the virtual reality generative process that lies beyond the phenomenal world and that manifests it in each moment of existence. Using matrix algebra and finite state automata it provides various mathematical methods, models and software prototypes with which one may explore the metaphysical issues and their ramifications on the world that we experience.

Other Related Metaphysical Works: a collection of summaries and/or links to works by other people that are somehow related to this work.

SMN v5.1 ParticleDraw :
A drawing program where the brushes are complex dynamical systems of particles with interesting behaviours (the program is also a "general system" simulator that manifests artificial universes with similar information theoretic properties to our own). One can construct and tune the empirical systems in incredibly intricate ways, thus producing many interesting brushes and visual effects. More Information or see the Gallery of images made with this program.

This program is a software implementation of the mathematical methods employed in the metaphysical analysis, it illustrates that the mathematics is coherent and that it constitutes a transcendent information process that manifests coherent experiential contexts (or artificial universes).

An artistic exploration into metaphysical spaces and alternate worlds.

For a popular-science style introduction to the overall metaphysical context: Read these books: My Big TOE, Science and the Akashic Field, The Field and Piercing Time and Space. They describe an emerging scientific and spiritual revolution with profound transformative potential.

For a no nonsense spiritual introduction to the metaphysical context: read the works of Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj (particularly see I am That, his main book). He speaks clear, concise, profound wisdom. I would also recommend the teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi, Sri Ramesh Balsekar, Sri H.W.L Poonja (Papaji) and Sri Gangaji. These are all modern day masters of jnana yoga (yoga of Supreme Knowledge).

Also see these central texts, the Ashtavakra Gita, the Avadhut Gita, the Bhagavad Gita, the Pratyabhijnarhidayam and the Shiva Sutras. I would also recommend the Lankavatara Sutra for a very clear Buddhist perspective. There's also Tilopa's Song of Mahamudra... They all express the same ageless wisdom as that which is on this site but in different ways.

Miscellaneous

A message from the I Ching, In 2005 when first creating this site I asked for a message from the I Ching that expresses the spirit of this work and its insertion into the world at this time.
Personal Holistic Healing: This work is a part of my own personal healing process.
A Brief Intellectual History: of how the underlying ideas evolved and came to be expressed here.
Why do I write these things?
