VIBES
the stacks

A reading list, shelved by tradition. Not complete. Not trying to be. Each shelf has the old books in free editions where we could find them, and where the author is modern we just point you at a summary and say in a sentence what we took from it.

thinkersMcKenna, McLuhan, Jaynes, Dennett, Nagel, Turing
Daoismthe Tao Te Ching and the I Ching
Christian mysticsa cloud, an anchoress, a Word
Western philosophycaves, cogito, categories
Eastern philosophyUpanishads, the Heart Sutra, Zen
Blakethe bridge between all of the above
mathBayes 1763, Fourier 1822, and older
unsolvedscripts and ciphers nobody has read

The shelves are arranged by subject. The dust is arranged by itself.
