A personal archive. The title figure is a Hierarchical Hopfield network repeatedly being perturbed and healing itself. It is both the thesis of this website and a cornerstone of my life's philosophy: order, intelligence, and life arise spontaneously from structures which know how to reconstruct themselves. These structures require no oversight; they simply are by the way they're constructed. Just like you and me.
What follows are notes toward a cosmology of self-evidencing i.e. gathering and creating the evidence for your own existence. These are working notes, not conclusions. They will be wrong in ways I cannot yet see. This archive exists to record the process and should itself be treated as a self-evidencing structure.
