It Occurred to me…
In this latest post, I’m determined to dispel what may be confusion surrounding my upcoming book, “Occurrence — the Very Strange Story of William F. Blume.” You may have come across the images introducing the various chapters, which could easily be mistaken for scenes from a children’s tale. However, I assure you, this is anything but a fairy tale or mythology.
While the illustrations may exude a fanciful charm, “Occurrence,” on the contrary, delves deep into a profound...

(An excerpt from the final chapter of OCCURRENCE — The Very Strange Story of William F. Blume)
Finally, I understand that my story — Billy’s story — might seem hard, if not impossible, to accept. I leave that entirely up to you, the reader.

I lean back, the chair creaks under me, my eyes falling to the half-empty tumbler of scotch. Johnny Walker please, Blue Label of...
A Conspiracy of Firewalls. (an excerpt from Book II)
Elon Musk provocatively once suggested that humanity might merely be a "bootloader" for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).
So, what if humans are just someone else’s biological wet-tech? Our organic essence, a crude scale of consciousness, a replicant “Form” (Plato) facilitating a progression through the ages…Bronze, Iron, Enlightenment, Atomic, Digital, and so on.
I have Questions...
Might such a concept reveal an...
