Ten Nodes of Symbolizing Humanity applies a scientific model of logarithmic time to human cultural evolution, charting how symbolic capacity unfolded in distinct, accelerating stages over the last 8 million years. Beginning with the first hominins and culminating near the rise of civilization, this work identifies ten major nodes of symbolic emergence—from habitual bipedalism and the earliest stone tools to abstract image-making and burial of the dead. Each node is supported by archaeological and paleontological evidence and interpreted through a framework of logarithmic halving, revealing a patterned pulse of cultural and cognitive breakthroughs. This study proposes that symbolic behavior evolved in tandem with biological change and was central to the human lineage. Bridging anthropology, evolutionary theory, and systems modeling, this work invites renewed scientific inquiry into the rhythmic structure of human evolution.

Mythos & Symbolic Humanity presents an integrated literary–scientific exploration of the emergence of symbolic behavior in the human lineage. Part I (Mythos) is a research-informed narrative following a small hominin family—Tod, Zoe, and child Toumai—across deep time nodes of tool innovation, fire use, and communicative complexity. Archetypal figures (e.g., "Rock Man") embody material and cognitive thresholds familiar from paleoarchaeology. Part II (The Ten Nodes of Symbolic Humanity) provides the underlying scholarly synthesis: paleoanthropological evidence for tool traditions (Acheulean, proto-Levallois), early fire control and possible pyrite-based ignition, eco-stress drivers, developmental analogs for language emergence, and the conceptual framework of symbolic nodes. By pairing narrative embodiment with annotated scientific analysis, the volume invites interdisciplinary engagement from anthropologists, educators, and readers seeking empirically grounded prehistorical imagination.

The two works collated here encompass a vast time from the start of life until the dawn to what we refer to as "civilization." In the first volume, a consistent logarithmic pulsing was found in biological evolution from life's beginning to the first humans. The evidence for these first ten nodes was primarily fossils or other life signatures in a given setting. The second volume continues the logarithmic pattering with human evolution even after the change is primarily occurring in the symbolic domain. Here, the evidence increasingly becomes geometric objects fashioned by humans, which became tools and symbols, as well as red ochre used to decorate and signify a charged object for use in ritual. Basically, what we mean by logarithmic patterning is that we are halving the units from the past to the future, such as 4 Gyr to 2 Gyr to 1 Gyr (billions of years) then moving on to 500 Myr, 250 Myr and on… (millions of years.) Here, a base two with exponents were used to half units and identify more refined points. What we consistently found was evidence for increasingly complexity, an acceleration of events logarithmically, such that Major Change kept happening in less time, or more precisely half the time as the previous change. That means that change occurred in pulsed logarithmic intervals. I have attempted to why this happens, but that is better left for another work. For now, we leave this task largely to readers to wonder about and make their own theories. We will however take on the humble and diligent task of assembling the evidence and ordering it on a logarithmic scale. Such as a scale can be updated, and I have begun some of that process. What I found was that new evidence surfacing was increasingly confirming of the logarithmic structuring outlined here. We will let you judge yourself as to how sufficient the evidence is and what that might say about the universe. It is an exciting process, and one which can only be "in process," to be continually updated and refined by others such as yourself. Let us then discover together.

The Unfolding of Time: A Logarithmic Model for Astronomical, Biological, and Cultural Evolution presents a unifying framework for understanding complexity across cosmic, biological, and cultural domains. Rather than treating the history of the universe as a linear sequence of disconnected events, this work proposes that major evolutionary thresholds—from the formation of galaxies and rocky planets to the emergence of life and symbolic culture—follow a rhythmic pattern when plotted on a logarithmic timescale. Drawing on current astronomical research, evolutionary biology, and anthropological insight, the model suggests that complexity emerges in distinct pulses, each nested within a broader unfolding. This interdisciplinary synthesis invites a rethinking of time's structure—not as a flat continuum, but as a layered rhythm of transformation. The result is a compelling vision of the universe's evolution, in which deep regularities shape the appearance of novelty across scales.

The human body can be seen as a treasure that reveals our evolutionary story. From the gut microbiome to the neocortex, we can envision how layers of evolution have worked to construct us. By allowing the body to become our teacher, we grow more comfortable with its many dimensions—and with the natural world to which it is intimately connected. Take a journey with us to explore how we are built, and how time's journey left its impress. In the end, we hope to become more at ease with the wonders of our own bodies—and open to the magic that may yet unfold.

This work considers "agents of immortality," or what moves us to see the immortal dimension of our existence. Ways in which immortality can be envisioned are explored, such as looking at the immortal aspect of bodies, spiritual experiences, including that of a spiritual double, and views which unite body and spirit, such as a resurrected body. This journey seeks to avoid both a "denial of death" and a "denial of immortality." Let us see how the door to the latter can be opened.

A wave of authoritarianism is sweeping the globe, tempting nations—and individuals—toward a darker path. Yet few are taught to recognize the signs. What are the core traits of empire? How do they operate, both openly and in subtle disguise? In this urgent and illuminating work, the author outlines ten defining traits of empire—how it dominates, deceives, and dehumanizes—and shows how these patterns repeat across history and nations, including our own. By naming these traits, we gain the clarity needed to resist effectively. But the book doesn't stop there. It wrestles with deeper questions: Can there be such a thing as a good empire? Is a more just and democratic future still possible? And how do we resist empire without becoming like it? This work invites readers into a courageous inquiry into history, power, and conscience—with the hope that we might still build a freer, richer world for all.

This work explores the author's encounters with times he almost died. A reflection on such events, in which we approach the razor's edge between life and death, has something to teach us. The author invites you to explore the meaning of your own life's relationship to death. By his reflections he hopes to open a door to the unexpected discoveries of times we companioned with death, and how they might become life-giving.

This work offers a novel way to map evolutionary time from life's origin to the first humans. Rather than using a traditional, linear scale in which events bunch up toward the end, a logarithmic scale is employed that expands our resolution as we come to the present. Such a scale allows us to detect patterns that would otherwise be invisible and arrange evolutionary events in memorable fashion. The basic concept of logarithms is not complicated, as we will simply halve units as we move from the past to the present in order to highlight major evolutionary change. Thus, we find the start of life to be approximately four billion years ago, the nucleated cell at two billion years ago, complex multicellularity at one billion years ago, and so on. Remarkably, we find the major events of evolution, along with the certainty of supporting evidence, to be pulsed with logarithmic regularity. This chart also reveals that each Major Node represents change in three major arenas, making for significant leaps in consciousness, gains in mobility, and increased social connectivity. Come, take this evolutionary journey and discover the surprising pattern of logarithmic time, with changes that would seem to have no end.
