Thoughts of a TechnoWizard
By Elijah Claude
I want to help bring forth better futures for all. That means creating a world of worlds that is more sustainable, ecologically stable, spiritual, ancestral, accessible, communal, ambitious, magical, and anarchistic. This is a world where we are all richer than rich; where all needs are met, and we instead solve better problems on a grander scale.


AI and Agronomic Towers
Today I air out some of my frustrations with the current paradigm of computers, software design, and AI.
I then talk about the 3D visual I've been working on for Andrewism's Solarpunk Art Collab

Marxism vs Anarchism
I read the Communist Manifesto.... and I have some thoughts. I rant about Marx after I explain what he was attempting to do, then get into the anarchist critiques that I share.

Furlough Updates, Motivation, Malcolm X, Herbalism and Ministry of the Future

Reflecting on cages and what it means to be free
These are some of the ideas that was partially inspired by this video:

Hoping to share my vulnerabilities and connect with more people on a deeper level through that discomfort!

Addendum on Manifestation

Managing Feelings and thoughts on Manifestation

Procrastination and Fighting for Actionable Optimism
I reflect on my history with failed ambitious projects, from hovercars to coding to trillionaire startups, and discuss what I learned from them.

What's Next for Me
I want to focus much of my abilities, ideas, and passions into growing a series called Building Better Futures!
Aaaand I want to learn craft/trade work like carpentry, woodworking, or millwright work.
Tune in for the former, and please let me know if you have suggestions for the latter!

How Changing the World is as easy as making friends
Do you think changing the world is hard? Impossible? Unrealistic? Well today I hope to show how changing the world could be as simple as building a real community around yourself.As I seek to decompress from being gainfully employed, I meander my way into sharing thoughts and desires I have around the importance of community in building a better world.
Check out my new podcast with my brother, called Claudian Rhythm!

Reminiscing a bit about my (old?) job

Furloughed
I am being put on furlough.... basically it's being laid off, but I can keep my benefits until I find another job, they hire us back, or they close up shop.
Losing your job always sucks, but I feel particularly frustrated for not being more prepared for this inevitability since I always knew that job security was not a thing.
Nonetheless, I am also very excited!! I'm finally going to have hella time to work on all the projects I've been wanting to work on over the past few years.
So stay tuned!! And let me know if there's anything you want to see first!
Also... if you want to support financially, feel free to send to my cashapp: $ElijahThaddeusClaude

Ambitious Story Concepts with Disappointing Execution
I'm back!! I share some of the stressors I've had and much of the stories I've been reading these past few weeks. These stories include (roughly in order of discussion): Consider Phlebas by Ian M. Banks, The Long Earth series by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter, House of Suns by Alistair Reynolds, and the webfiction Ar'Kendrithyst by Arcs.
And I forgot to talk about A Half-Built Garden by Ruthanna Emrys... which is a shame because it was my favorite novel of the lot! Definitely have to get into it in the next episode.
