    Matryoshka Madness

    Humans are creative geniuses who are able to take isolated pieces of sensory information and transform them into detailed mental models of the world.

    A Clear and Present Danger

    Did you know that the FBI ranks White Nationalists and Neo-Nazis at the same threat level as ISIS?

    The Latest Incarnation

    This site has gone through many incarnations since it launched in 2000. My latest obsession is creating images with the help of AI platforms like Stable Diffusion, DALL-E 2 and Midjourney.
