A Pursuit

of never compromising
our values

Stories

In a world where people are judged by a show of achievements, we walk to a different beat — by laying out experiences that shape a human life.
‍
These are tales that mix intuitive adventures, raw trips through the furnace of adversity, and uncommon insights that guided our path.

Something special happens at the intersection of Adversity, Skill, and Taste: You find the conditions to nurture a living philosophy Tooltip image .

But to blend utility with meaning, you have to sit with problems longer than most, deconstruct previously unquestioned components to their essence, & realign them to infuse your values into the end result.

Here aesthetics aren't laid over the top.. they're revealed.

a pursuit

Our path has always been guided by values, not vision.

9 TENETS

1. If the pursuit of quality is negotiable, so is your character.

2. Without exploring darkness, your truth is ill-defined.

3. You can only simplify to your capacity to withstand pain.

4. Higher order truth is activated via instincts, not models.

5.Incompliance is a prerequisite for exponential leaps.

6.Plans don't open portals to novel worlds; questions do.

7.Embrace uncertainty & take cues from emergent landscapes.

8.Integrate meaning... Or you'll only optimize for transactions.

9. Show trust. Everyone else will show you a contract.

But now... we also have vision.

Into the
FUTURE

If we look closely, there are fingerprints across our planet from prior epochsGobekli Tepi, Gunung Padang, and innumerable other sites present compelling cases: of civilizations that merged technology & cosmic reverence.

Yet here we stand, unaware of the lost arcs of our history beyond a few thousand years, while stagnant in physics paradigmsChemical propulsion, Einsteinian speed limits & String theory. that can't help us traverse galaxies.

There’s a disconnect between our past, the true nature of the technological prowess on this planet, & our map of the future.

Into the FUTURE

Accelerating technology at all costs, without upgrading inner human faculties, puts society on a perilous course.

Civilizational advance isn’t simply about a mechanistic universe favoring greater entropyThe 2nd law of thermodynamics guiding 'accelerationism manifestos' & energy capture; it’s also about a deeper expansion through intuition, meaning & wisdom.

Reality is a confluence.. & it has purpose.

Look closer, & there are fingerprints across our planet from prior epochsGobekli Tepi, Gunung Padang, and numerous other sites present compelling cases: of civilizations that merged technology & spiritual-cosmic reverence.

But here we are, unaware of the lost arcs of our history beyond a few thousand years, while stagnant in physics paradigmsChemical propulsion, Einsteinian speed limits & String theory. that can’t take us to the stars..

There’s a disconnect between our past, intrinsic truths & our map to the future.

Zen Black's journey has taken us to the heart of this matter.

Although the path was wild & full of detours, the disparate explorations of 2 decades are now aligned.

Our unique skill for mega curations, obsession for building large products, and a full circle moment — rekindling an old purpose — of exploring ancient civilizations with a recurring intuitive contact with physics, have inevitably converged.

We are at the right place & time building that which can to peer deep into humanities past, to find what’s forgotten, dismissed, while uncovering key technological discoveries to guide our future.

In 2025 we’ll begin releasing high-signal curations, while mapping out and synthesizing knowledge across domains via one of our most interesting & powerful applications to date:

Anti Expert.

Zen Black's journey has taken us to the heart of this matter.

Although the path was wild & full of detours, the disparate explorations of 2 decades have now perfectly aligned to reveal a vision of what’s next.

Our unique skill for mega curations, obsession for building large products, and a full circle moment — rekindling an old purpose — of exploring ancient civilizations, with the recurring intuitive contact with physics, have all inevitably converged.

We’re therefore building Anti Expert to peer deep enough into our past to find what’s been forgotten, ignorantly dismissed and that which still remains as hope for our future.
‍
Our first step with A-E is high-signal curations and new models to synthesize knowledge across domains.

Zen Black will take aim at a subset of these disconnects.

The next phase of our pursuit is to:

1. Open up the world of Anti-Experts via high signal curations and models to synthesize across domains.

2. Utilize trust as a power tool for investment into people following unique pathways and/or high agency expression.
