Geneosophy
For the past 15 years—supported at times by a few trusted sounding boards—I have been working on a project I call Geneosophy.
Geneosophy offers a new way to approach concepts such as intelligence and life—concepts that, under current frameworks, remain mysterious.
It consists of two main parts:
- Theoretical Geneosophy, creates a new conceptual space in which to reason and comprehend.
- Applied Geneosophy, defines the tools and processes for carrying out comprehension.
With these theoretical and applied tools, it becomes possible to develop expressions that test the autonomous creativity we attribute to concepts such as life and intelligence—a creativity that eludes current approaches such as mathematics, programming, and AI.
Geneosophy arises from a simple but radical observation: every academic discipline—mathematics, physics, philosophy, computer science, biology—rests on foundational assumptions it cannot itself explain. Each field builds vast structures of knowledge, yet when it turns inward to examine its own foundations, it runs into paradox, infinite regress, and self-reference. For concepts such as life and intelligence, this inward turn is unavoidable within the traditional approach.
Geneosophy seeks to explore the hidden foundation of knowledge itself: the primordial capacity by which we create and manipulate concepts, entities, and frameworks. Instead of beginning with pre-given entities (numbers, particles, propositions, data, objects), Geneosophy asks:
- What makes it possible for us to assume entities at all?
- What is the source of the act of knowing, before disciplines begin their work?
- How do words, concepts, and categories arise from lived experience and feeling?
This project draws upon philosophy, etymology, the history of science, and the study of paradoxes in logic, mathematics, and computation. Yet it is not another discipline. Instead, it points to the unity underlying all disciplines—the creative source that makes them possible in the first place.
My aim with Geneosophy is not to replace science, mathematics, or philosophy, but to offer a different lens: one that recognizes their power while also illuminating their limits.
Over time, I will use this personal blog—and another dedicated specifically to Geneosophy—to share fragments, reflections, and investigations that have emerged from this 15-year journey.
