Abstract: This white paper proposes a new framework for understanding Recursive AI, repositioning it not merely as a technical phenomenon of self-improving systems, but as a philosophical and pedagogical transformation — an alchemical recursion entangled with histories of computation, learning, and world-making. Drawing on theories of meta-research, dialogue, and infinite semiosis,...
Material Agency Network Theory proposes that agency—the capacity to act and affect outcomes—is distributed throughout networks of human and non-human actors.

💡This is part 1.1.2 of the Xenorationalism course💡The Anorganic Continuum describes how the boundary between living and non-living matter is fundamentally illusory - both operate through the same physical processes of energy flow, information processing, and pattern maintenance against entropy. It reveals that life isn't...
❗This is part 1.1.1 of the Xenorationalism course🧠Teleoplexy Theory examines how purpose-like behaviors and goal-directed outcomes emerge from complex material systems through distributed interactions and feedback mechanisms, without requiring consciousness, intention, or central planning. Essentially, it explains how systems like biological evolution, market capitalism, and technological development...
Here at FTRWRLDS we have an exciting course for you on a new topic that is inspired by philosphies like Accelerationism, Ray Brassier's nihilistic philosphieis, Doomer and Catastrophic scenarios of ecological collapse, humans struggling to cope with increasingly fast technological changes, algorithmic content controls, and humans unable to...
