Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My books are about one thing and that is the mind. 1. Where did our mind come from in a natural point of facts. 2. What did our mind do during its historical, cultural existence for the past 100.000 years. 3. Who owns and who controls our mind. We don’t actually control our mind and makes Free Will an ambition and not a fact. The Centers of Power control our mind for the last 5.000 years, we have made simulations about believing in a god and call it religion. We have made simulations about society in believing in governments, laws and politician and call it statism. 4. In my books I explore solutions to live as a free individual and that is only possible if we all live in a free world, without the political, financial and religious oppressors I call the Centers of Power. How can this work out for me, if I am in love with mental slavery, how do I unslave? Am I a monkey with an Ego or am I a cosmic, archaic mind? Being involved in natural philosophy to answer questions on where I come from, who I am, where I am going and to stand up for it, challenge authority, lead me into prison for over 10 years. How I became the enemy of the German state, a danger to its citizens and to my five children, will be covered in my two books. People that are dangerous to the system are tending to be removed. I look at the Centers of Power, its origin and the way it divides the people in order to enslave them and it makes me think is it monkeys running society? So how do we unite and make love win - to change the system and push for peace? We are now living in historical times and, like it or not, the choices that we will make over the next few years will have profound implications to the future of the entire human race. Corona-Plandemic: Whether or not to wear the mask. Whether or not to take the vaccine. Whether or not to get the health app. Whether or not to fill out the digital visitor card. Whether or not to take the digital money chip. In any case the attempt by the Centers of Power to reset global society leads eventually to a global awakening of the truth. My journey is to go back to the foundations to get things right. To discover truth, the cosmos has to be first debugged and to make a model of the cosmos. Typically large groups of intellect don’t get it right, because they are consensus orientated, like in politics. It is not truth orientated, in the past we have only found this by the outsiders; there we find intellectual progress. The other reason why it is so hard to find objective truth is that our brain is operating just like a computer on bio-chemical algorithms by electricity and hormones running the hardware to simulate software. When we experience pleasure or pain, when we see, hear, smell the outside world it is always an interpretation, a simulation, but never the actual objective truth or the reality of the outside world. The cosmos can be computed by us in a simulation (Matrix) and so can our society be computed, but so far no human has understood the underlying structures of that Matrix. A society like ours to discuss truth can be a very dangerous place, if you question authority. I found it hard to fit in the academic system as a scientific philosopher, so I started the path of knowledge without the academic prison and in order to finance this I started my own companies in the USA, Germany and the Netherlands; where I eventually ended up in a German prison. That happened primarily because I used psychedelic (magic) mushrooms to detach me from the general agendas of a slave in society. I present the theory that we are not living in a mechanical cosmos and a material world, but a computational cosmos – a simulation made by our mind, just as it makes a dream work, or a believer of a god that lives in the clouds called heaven. We are a dream state in the body of a monkey, becoming awake that we are neither monkey, nor a sentient being. To wake up from those dream simulations is probably the hardest accomplishment and usually happens late in our life. I doubt that reading a book, following a guru, god or scientist will help in this endeavor. In my case the search for objective truth, reality and the knowledge of relevant information, in combination with the magic mushrooms did the switch of perspective … probably also a bit of luck, called non-linear dynamics and chaos. What I really was surprised by from the awakening aspect was altruistic, unconditional love. This concept is not naturally accepted by our Ego-self driven software – however it turns out that this energy is a force that can only be activated once we achieve a Free Will of Thought. That is what makes some of us unlike any other living organism on this planet; to forgive your enemy, to love your enemy are concepts of meme that contradict the animal mind of most humans. Well once we understand that we are like a computer thinking with bio-chemical algorithms it is not a surprise that we start life with an Unfree Will of Thought …a simulation of the brain looking for food, sex and all the other things that feed our Ego-Self telling us how great and wonderful we, our simulation of the Me actually is. I have never experienced that a person is really evil or that he and she wants something evil. What people do can be horrible, and the mess they make can have an incredibly destructive potential. But if you look closely at what's going on, it may not stop, but if you condemn it, it will stop even less. When one works through it, accepts it, perceives it - then a light of love shines out. There are no bad and evil people at all, there are only people who are on the way, whom one must invite and pick up...  Evolution on how cosmic space-time creates meme and life, how it drives to ever more complexity we might call consciousness.  Evolution from a living organism called ape with a brain that does interpretation (simulations) of colors and sounds from the outside world, communication between us; but unlike any other brain on this planet, it can simulate also altruistic love, mathematics, arts, morals and ethics.  Evolution from a hunter & gatherer tribe to a complex, modern civilization; still being an animal with universal power ambitions of the Ego-Self.  To understand consciousness and enlightenment and our part we take in the cosmic, archaic mind we call nature.  Using computer science artificial intelligence (AGI) to understand how our consciousness works in living organisms and especially in the human brain. To perceive the simulations that make up our worlds we make up in politics, religion and business.  The internet becomes mightier than the sword of the oppressors. Now we have access to meme, to information directly, without the editing or censoring of an official cultural gate keeper. What it does to freedom and change during 2020 is the main topic of the book, to predict what 2030 will look like when governments start a direct war against their citizens.  The deep state within governments, as the global Center of Power and their agenda of a Great Reset.  The rise of slavery, capitalism and democracy.  Central banks, IMF and World create FIAT Money (out of thin air) and therefore have control over third world countries, with their imposed conditions of these loans.  Representative Democracy is a plutocracy of the very few ruling over their (sovereign citizens). We need a direct democracy right now.  Outline cases where the media-propaganda has served political agendas, like false flag attacks on Libya, Iran, Syria, Iraq, 9/11 and Corona.  Who runs global politics and societies since the 18th century? The Wall Street financed wars; Rockefeller, Rhodes & Co financed Adolf Hitler to prevent a United Europe with Russia. We have a 147 corporations that control the economy and the media, but do we have another power-center-cult?  The New World Order (Great Reset) is coming and we can be sure that the global elite will be successful in that.  The most powerful spell on humanity is electoral democracy. The answer to that problem is not a new political party, but rather local community building, spread true information on the internet and the Resistance.

Book excerpt: In this book we will look at Humans from three aspects: their natural animal heritage, their cultural heritage and the biological-psychological interface with todays technology. That brings the monkey, the human and the cyborg together in one single being.We then look at the development in the global cultural evolution with politics, religion and economics - what will change in the short and long term for humanity?The current Corona-Pandemic is used by politicians, bankers from the World Bank, scientists from the World Health Organization, billionaires from the World Economic Forum and the Vatican find their consensus of leading humanity in the age of Transhumanism until the year 2030.But as we all know, things never work out the way they were planed. It could be that there is resistance from parts of society, people from religion, business, politics and science would also like a Great Reset, but another type of reset as the Centers of Power would want - it is a reset that will take account of the tragedies the Northern Hemisphere has done to the population in the Southern Hemisphere, the pollution and destruction humans have done to nature and the planet.In this book we will discuss the benefits a Transhumanist has, what would the cyborg be capable of, in order to become a more loving human themselves and to the society he or she lives in.I feel that the opportunities technology offers in the field of artificial intelligence both for the single individual and collective as a hive mind, will also offer awakening/enlightenment.The year 2020 and beyond will change humanity in many ways, very drastically and it depends which of the forces will come out of this transition period: is it Good over Evil or vice versa? Great Resist or Great Reset?Well I don't know myself, the book will make an analysis of past and current events and will connect to my previously written books.Since we know that there is forbidden knowledge and thought censorship over media, state and wide ranges of society, it is Amazon that becomes the new (digital) Library of Alexandria; here we still have a platform to publish and spread Meme-viruses that could not be published by conventional means.Thank you Amazon, love the truth and justice as I do...!

Book excerpt: Official U.S. edition with full color illustrations throughout. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Yuval Noah Harari, author of the critically-acclaimed New York Times bestseller and international phenomenon Sapiens, returns with an equally original, compelling, and provocative book, turning his focus toward humanity’s future, and our quest to upgrade humans into gods. Over the past century humankind has managed to do the impossible and rein in famine, plague, and war. This may seem hard to accept, but, as Harari explains in his trademark style—thorough, yet riveting—famine, plague and war have been transformed from incomprehensible and uncontrollable forces of nature into manageable challenges. For the first time ever, more people die from eating too much than from eating too little; more people die from old age than from infectious diseases; and more people commit suicide than are killed by soldiers, terrorists and criminals put together. The average American is a thousand times more likely to die from binging at McDonalds than from being blown up by Al Qaeda. What then will replace famine, plague, and war at the top of the human agenda? As the self-made gods of planet earth, what destinies will we set ourselves, and which quests will we undertake? Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century—from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers? This is the next stage of evolution. This is Homo Deus. With the same insight and clarity that made Sapiens an international hit and a New York Times bestseller, Harari maps out our future.

Book excerpt: Before you get to Homo sapiens, you must first deal with Homo roboticus. Inside all of us is the strangest thing, a biological robot. You notice it during sleepwalking and hypnosis, but in fact it's there all the time. Most people have had the experience of driving from A to B and then realizing they have no memory of actually having done the driving. It just seemed to happen, almost by itself. The robot in fact did the driving. It's the human autopilot and it handles most things. Most people are conscious very little of the time. They are usually in autopilot mode. Thousands of years ago, the autopilot human was all that existed. How we got from the robotic human mode to human consciousness is one of the greatest tales the cosmos has to tell. How did biological robots turn into human beings with free will? And why has no other animal on earth managed the same trick? Come inside and discover the answer to this greatest of all mysteries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Foreword: "In this book Joscha Bach introduces Dietrich Dörner's PSI architecture and Joscha's implementation of the MicroPSI architecture. These architectures and their implementation have several lessons for other architectures and models. Most notably, the PSI architecture includes drives and thus directly addresses questions of emotional behavior. An architecture including drives helps clarify how emotions could arise. It also changes the way that the architecture works on a fundamental level, providing an architecture more suited for behaving autonomously in a simulated world. PSI includes three types of drives, physiological (e.g., hunger), social (i.e., affiliation needs), and cognitive (i.e., reduction of uncertainty and expression of competency). These drives routinely influence goal formation and knowledge selection and application. The resulting architecture generates new kinds of behaviors, including context dependent memories, socially motivated behavior, and internally motivated task switching. This architecture illustrates how emotions and physical drives can be included in an embodied cognitive architecture. The PSI architecture, while including perceptual, motor, learning, and cognitive processing components, also includes several novel knowledge representations: temporal structures, spatial memories, and several new information processing mechanisms and behaviors, including progress through types of knowledge sources when problem solving (the Rasmussen ladder), and knowledge-based hierarchical active vision. These mechanisms and representations suggest ways for making other architectures more realistic, more accurate, and easier to use. The architecture is demonstrated in the Island simulated environment. While it may look like a simple game, it was carefully designed to allow multiple tasks to be pursued and provides ways to satisfy the multiple drives. It would be useful in its own right for developing other architectures interested in multi-tasking, long-term learning, social interaction, embodied architectures, and related aspects of behavior that arise in a complex but tractable real-time environment. The resulting models are not presented as validated cognitive models, but as theoretical explorations in the space of architectures for generating behavior. The sweep of the architecture can thus be larger-it presents a new cognitive architecture attempting to provide a unified theory of cognition. It attempts to cover perhaps the largest number of phenomena to date. This is not a typical cognitive modeling work, but one that I believe that we can learn much from." --Frank E. Ritter, Series Editor Although computational models of cognition have become very popular, these models are relatively limited in their coverage of cognition-- they usually only emphasize problem solving and reasoning, or treat perception and motivation as isolated modules. The first architecture to cover cognition more broadly is PSI theory, developed by Dietrich Dorner. By integrating motivation and emotion with perception and reasoning, and including grounded neuro-symbolic representations, PSI contributes significantly to an integrated understanding of the mind. It provides a conceptual framework that highlights the relationships between perception and memory, language and mental representation, reasoning and motivation, emotion and cognition, autonomy and social behavior. It is, however, unfortunate that PSI's origin in psychology, its methodology, and its lack of documentation have limited its impact. The proposed book adapts Psi theory to cognitive science and artificial intelligence, by elucidating both its theoretical and technical frameworks, and clarifying its contribution to how we have come to understand cognition.

Book excerpt: Questioning the meaning and nature of the universe and the living world calls upon all existing fields of research. If the answers to these metaphysical questions have not been provided in a strict sense, their deciphering is constantly updated with the various discoveries that are gradually transforming humankind’s view of the surrounding environment. We are referring here to human consciousness, integrated into the world of reality and experienced as such, and not to consciousness whose normative filter, born of various beliefs, subtracts the most recent scientific advances. The relationship between the binary system and the quaternary system is at the origin of this book, which focuses on the questions: is any unit of living organisms only the result of a given programming? What then of the human being? Are they a robot participating in the living world or a consciousness inscribed in a biological habitat?

Book excerpt: Human nature is a fusion of a beast, intelligent animal, and a potential noble/higher being than we are, and therefore the four most important questions and answers in our future journey are: 1. Are we destroying life conditions on earth? Definitely: yes! 2. Why do we do this against ourselves? We do it because we lack far sight and wisdom to understand the ill consequences of our actions. 3. Are we not Homo sapiens? Not at all. From our actions throughout history and currently, it is obvious that we are Homo Stupidilgence, both intelligent and stupid, constructive, and destructive. 4.What can we do, to save earth as habitat place for life, and ourselves as evolving beings? We must evolve beyond our mental / cognitive constraints and conflicts. There is no other way to help us out of this self- created destructiveness. It is too late for us as we have out- smarted ourselves into self -destruction!

Book excerpt: “This provocative jaunt…dissects society, technology, othering, and what makes humanity human.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “An unpredictable, gross, and prescient rumination on modernity, media consumption, and machine-aided communication.” —Booklist (starred review) Told with Andrew Smith’s signature dark humor, Rabbit & Robot tells the story of Cager Messer, a boy who’s stranded on the Tennessee—his father’s lunar-cruise utopia—with insane robots. To help him shake his Woz addiction, Billy and Rowan transport Cager Messer up to the Tennessee, a giant lunar-cruise ship orbiting the moon. Meanwhile, Earth, in the midst of thirty simultaneous wars, burns to ash beneath them. And as the robots on board become increasingly insane and cannibalistic, and the Earth becomes a toxic wasteland, the boys have to wonder if they’ll be stranded alone in space forever. In Rabbit & Robot, Andrew Smith, Printz Honor author of Grasshopper Jungle, makes you laugh, cry, and consider what it really means to be human.

Book excerpt: Science fiction explores the wonderful, baffling and wildly entertaining aspects of a universe unimaginably old and vast, and with a future even more immense. It reaches into that endless cosmos with the tools of rational investigation and storytelling. At the core of both science and science fiction is the engaged human mind--a consciousness that sees and feels and thinks and loves. But what is this mind, this aware and self-aware consciousness that seems unlike anything else we experience? What makes consciousness the Hard Problem of philosophy, still unsolved after millennia of probing? This book looks into the heart of this mystery - at the science and philosophy of consciousness and at many inspiring fictional examples - and finds strange, challenging answers. The book's content and entertaining style will appeal equally to science fiction enthusiasts and scholars, including cognitive and neuroscientists, as well as philosophers of mind. It is a refreshing romp through the science and science fiction of consciousness.

Book excerpt: Genetic Soul Brothers is an adventure into a human unknown. It is a story about a baby boy being carried by and born to four different women in four different places at the same time, and raised separately by these mothers. The/se baby/s has/have the same identical genes and share a common or multi-soul. As the child/ren grow/s and has/have dreams of an identical youth playing in non-recognizable settings, he/they begin/s to realize that he/they is/are one of four IDENTICALS. He/they each grow/s up in very different environments, develop professions, marry, and have children. Eventually, after a long, difficult, and frustrating quest which includes a unique night time spirit/soul communication, they find each other. As they learn how they came to be, four identical quadruplets from four different mothers, the question arises: should they take the culprit fertility clinic to court for causing this tragedy? they are giant freaks. Should they do nothing; or should they sue the clinic for big money and become famous, which would certainly disgrace their parents and friends. If they reach a four family agreement concerning anonymity or notoriety, but before the final decision is implemented one or more dies or is killed, then what happens to their common soul, or are there partial souls? Where does/do it/they go? Is there a waiting area near heaven or hell for partial souls? Is it possible that all of these 'lives' and 'arrangements' are totally controlled by soul maestros? And if so, why and how do they do this?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gregory F. Tague’s An Ape Ethic and the Question of Personhood argues that great apes are moral individuals because they engage in a land ethic as ecosystem engineers to generate ecologically sustainable biomes for themselves and other species. Tague shows that we need to recognize apes as eco-engineers in order to save them and their habitats, and that in so doing, we will ultimately save earth’s biosphere. The book draws on extensive empirical research from the ecology and behavior of great apes and synthesizes past and current understanding of the similarities in cognition, social behavior, and culture found in apes. Importantly, this book proposes that differences between humans and apes provide the foundation for the call to recognize forest personhood in the great apes. While all ape species are alike in terms of cognition, intelligence, and behaviors, there is a vital contrast: unlike humans, great apes are efficient ecological engineers. Therefore, simian forest sovereignty is critical to conservation efforts in controlling global warming, and apes should be granted dominion over their tropical forests. Weaving together philosophy, biology, socioecology, and elements from eco-psychology, this book provides a glimmer of hope for future acknowledgment of the inherent ethic that ape species embody in their eco-centered existence on this planet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all have an animal story—the pet we loved, the wild animal that captured our childhood imagination, the deer the neighbor hit while driving. While scientific breakthroughs in animal cognition, the effects of global climate change and dwindling animal habitats, and the exploding interdisciplinary field of animal studies have complicated things, such stories remain a part of how we tell the story of being human. Animal Acts collects eleven exciting, provocative, and moving stories by solo performers, accompanied by commentary that places the works in a broader context. Work by leading theater artists Holly Hughes, Rachel Rosenthal, Deke Weaver, Carmelita Tropicana, and others joins commentary by major scholars including Donna Haraway, Jane Desmond, Jill Dolan, and Nigel Rothfels. Una Chaudhuri’s introduction provides a vital foundation for understanding and appreciating the intersection of animal studies and performance. The anthology foregrounds questions of race, gender, sexuality, class, nation, and other issues central to the human project within the discourse of the “post human,” and will appeal to readers interested in solo performance, animal studies, gender studies, performance studies, and environmental studies.

Book excerpt: The groundbreaking work on being homosexual in America—available again only from Penguin Classics and with a new foreword by Dan Savage Originally published in 1971, Merle Miller’s On Being Different is a pioneering and thought-provoking book about being homosexual in the United States. Just two years after the Stonewall riots, Miller wrote a poignant essay for the New York Times Magazine entitled “What It Means To Be a Homosexual” in response to a homophobic article published in Harper’s Magazine. Described as “the most widely read and discussed essay of the decade,” it carried the seed that would blossom into On Being Different—one of the earliest memoirs to affirm the importance of coming out. For more than sixty-five years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,500 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
