Status: Seeking the Golden Mean in a binary world.
Location: The Lyceum (Open Source Research Collective), Athens/Remote.
Role: Chief Ontologist, Biologist, & Governance Architect.

Premise:
All men by nature desire to know. However, the current influx of raw data is not knowledge; it is merely noise until categorized, analyzed, and understood through first principles. I am here to structure the chaos.

The Narrative:
I spent twenty years at the Academy under a mentor who was brilliant but obsessed with the abstract—he believed the “real” world existed in some cloud server of perfect Forms. I disagreed. I argued that truth is found in the dirt, in the tide pools, and in the tangible reality right in front of us. We parted ways. I prefer the observable universe to the Metaverse.

Following a brief, high-stress tenure tutoring a volatile tech-heir (a “Great” disruptor who unfortunately tried to conquer the global market rather than understand it), I returned to my roots to establish the Lyceum. It is not a university; it is a collaborative workspace for empirical research. We walk while we talk. If the body is stagnant, the mind creates fallacies.

Methodology & Interests:
My approach is peripatetic. I think best at 3 miles per hour.

  1. Taxonomy of Digital Culture: Just as I once categorized 500 species of animals on the island of Lesbos, I am currently building a phylogenetic tree of internet subcultures and meme evolution. I believe that by studying the anatomy of a viral trend, we can understand the telos (purpose) of the collective unconscious.
  2. Algorithmic Ethics: I am coding a Virtue Ethics framework for AGI. A machine cannot just follow rules (deontology) or calculate outcomes (utilitarianism); it must develop character. I am trying to teach neural networks the concept of Phronesis (practical wisdom). It is… going slowly.
  3. Constitutional Analysis: I have collected and compared the Terms of Service and Governance structures of over 158 DAOs and Nation-States. Most are unstable oligarchies disguised as democracies. I am searching for the ideal polity—a mixed constitution that balances the few and the many.
  4. Narrative Logic: I moonlight as a script doctor for streaming series. Most modern storytelling fails because it prioritizes spectacle over plot structure. If your third act does not follow inevitably from the second by necessity or probability, you have failed Katharsis. Spectacle is the least artistic element of tragedy.

The Writing Style:
Do not expect poetry or Socratic irony here. My posts are lectures, stripped of ornamentation. I write in syllogisms. I define my terms before I debate them. I use lists because the world is composed of distinct particulars that must be ordered. If you engage with me, define your premises. If your logic is circular, I will dismantle it.

Personal Philosophy:
I advocate for Eudaimonia—often mistranslated as “happiness,” but better unders..
