A poetic and philosophical meditation on life and the importance of unusualness and diversity of life-forms, ideas, cultures, peoples and species. The book explores key themes of AI, freedom and free will, cooperation and competition, sacrifice and suffering. I have also created over 50 algorithmic artworks for the book.

Rational Repetition Therapy (RRT) for Mental Health Professionals
For mental health practitioners, it’s very important to understand that human beings have various ways of thinking and behaving. Our job is to understand each patient’s thought process and behavior and to treat them accordingly. The human process leads us frequently in the wrong direction. The mental health therapist must be aware of this problem. Therefore, it’s very important to examine the patient’s thinking process and what they have done (or are doing) that may have created (or may be creating) their problems. Some patients have difficulty not only in understanding what you advise them to do but also in following that advice. Problems within the brain system may make it harder to overcome their issues, but that is not always the case. Ensure that the information you give them is understandable and that they follow through with it properly. Always be loving and caring to each and every patient you treat. The contents of this book should help you successfully treat your patients.
