Contemplative Primate

The Contemplative Primate explores our place in the universe and how to live better lives as humans on Earth. The name pays homage to two unifying themes: that we as humans are primates with a psychology and physiology shaped by our evolutionary history; and that we have the unique ability to contemplate our own existence and shape our own behavior.

I draw on insights from physics, biology, computer science, neuroscience, psychology, economics, philosophy, and various religious and contemplative traditions. For the unabridged origin story, I invite you to grab a kombucha and head over to Writing.
