Alex M. Vikoulov
Magnum opus of evolutionary cyberneticist and digital philosopher Alex M. Vikoulov on the ultimate nature of reality, consciousness, the physics of time, philosophy of mind, transhumanism, economic theory, the technological singularity, the extended Gaia theory, the impending phase transition of humanity, the simulation hypothesis, transcendental metaphysics, and God.
In one volume, the author covers it all: from quantum physics to your experiential reality, from the big bang to the omega point, from the "flow state" to psychedelics, from Lucy to the looming AI singularity, from natural algorithms to the operating system of your mind, from geoengineering to nanotechnology, from anti-aging to immortality technologies, from oligopoly capitalism to Star Trek-onomics, from The Matrix to universal mind, from Homo sapiens to Holo syntellectus.
This is an essential listen in digital physics, foundations of quantum physics, science of consciousness, philosophy of mind, physics of time, phenomenology, economic theory, cybernetics and AI research, collective evolution, and self-development in the information age.
Despite a dozen of neologisms, readily explained by given definitions and contextually, the book is an exceptionally easy listen for an intellectual listener. Alongside with the syntellect hypothesis, as the author's main contribution to the scientific and philosophical dialogue, you'll encounter the conscious instant hypothesis and the temporal singularity, experiential realism and the mental universe hypothesis in regards to our phenomenological experience; the noocentric model challenging the centuries-old Copernican heliocentric model; the chrysalis conjecture as his solution to the Fermi paradox; D-theory of time, or digital presentism, as his fresh perspective on temporal ontology and the physics of time; the mind-bending digital pantheism argument, exponential evolution, and the omega point cosmo-teleology.

this book overflows with rich explorations of the quantum digital nature of reality- offering a number of original hypotheses and insights- following those ideas all the way to their ultimate cosmic fulfilment- along with a wide survey of the state of scientific and philosophical views on these topics-
the book is highly recommended to the novice and the expert alike- it is an excellent compendium of "Digital Philosophy" that gives the topic the respect it deserves-
the narration is clear and articulate -

Side note: The narrator’s frequent use of “air quotes” and seemingly intentional mis-pronunciation of common words is borderline maddening at times.
More religion than science

Many visionaries see technology as the end of civilization as we know it and the beginning of a scary false hope of utopia. While Netflix shows such as The Social Dilemma have us turning off our cell phones, Alex has more of a positive take about our inescapable future and our eventual evolution into something that is not quite biological. Alex has no fear about the future, and is counting the days until the singularity with anticipation.
On a personal note, I can't say that I am as brave about looking forward to our future and our predecessors' future, but I can say that I am a smarter person because of the read. If you are one that appreciates technology, and appreciates theoretical physics, and if you are an optimist then this book is probably for you.
Great Read
