Focus: Bridging epistemic traditions of the Western Greco-Roman civilization (philosophy, metaphysics & science as well as theology) and Eastern mysticisms (ie: Hinduism, Buddhism & Daoism) using modern Western concepts (most notably: virtual reality) as pedagogical metaphors.
Basically... developing metaphysical frameworks similar to the Matrix to describe how 1) the West sees the East &2) the East sees the West.
I have no formal training in philosophy or mysticism to speak of. My formal training is in computer and cognitive science. I have a body of intellectually speculative (even if fmpov intuitively non-speculative) knowledge based on contemplation (ie: thinking on my own) & self-exploration (aka: meditation).
