All I Have is Human; I Need More
Jung referred to the numinous as a primordial self, something internal that ties us all together, as if we were the instrumentalization of its foundational presence. We can catch segments of this numinous, in a fragmented sense, or if we are lucky, in its more complete form. Jung most famously wrote about this in his…

The Great Hairless Ape
Author’s Note: This short reflection is part of an ongoing inquiry into the tension between sentience, decay, and myth. If you found resonance or dissonance in it, you’re in the right place. I welcome your thoughts. It’s truly a shame humanity is capable of such repugnance; that is the consequence of a mind that can…

Binaries and Whispers
“The binary of my soul is a digit out of place”. “Right, sounds like an internal exile?” “Something like that, I’m no genius.” “No, but you are different.”“Annoyingly so.” Pen scrawls across paper, looping letters all joined and wide. “You want to be loved?” Small silence, followed by a sigh. “I guess so.” “What kind…

Sustainability
Introduction With the emergence of the industrial revolution humanity has, in turn, until more recent times disassociated itself with its naturalistic origins, and so had the field of sociology. The prominence of sociological concern in environmental and sustainability issues began to see rapid expansion during the 1970’s. Before that, the social science theories on human…

The Development of Assemblage Theories: Advancements, application and its ability to analyse
Introduction Assemblage Theory is a concept that analyses the construction of both the physical (environments, societies, nations) and the non-physical (morals, culture, histories, social) as a process of assembling assemblages (DeLanda, 2016). The theory has seen multiple renditions throughout academia, such as Actor-Network Theory, which focuses more on socio-technological constructions, the human and non-human assemblages…

Now we grieve in comments.Death is no longer a curtain call, it’s a playlist. In this age of eternal footage, AI griefbots, and ultra-HD memories, death hasn’t stopped happening……

The Functional Absolute, Syntax and Semantics: Meditations on The Soul, Part 6
The text explores the nature of the soul as a functional absolute, distinguished from consciousness. It presents the soul as a data point that evolves through recursive observation, leading to an infinite regression of reactions. The soul interacts with reality, shaping it intrinsically, and ultimately succumbs to its own creation, akin to Hegel’s theories.
