Life after music

I spent years making records. Then I put down the stage and picked up the road. The mountains, the sea, and above all the sky. This is where I keep what I found.

The Kid and the Machine

Cover of The Kid and the Machine

At three in the morning, a Greek programmer and music producer asked an AI a simple question: how do you work? The answer connected everything he had been circling for thirty years, from the harmonic series to gravity to the geometry of machine learning, one pattern running underneath it all. An interdisciplinary panel called it a book that arrives at genuine scientific insight through the trajectory of a single life. Not the theory of everything, but a theory of how everything feels from the inside, grounded in real physics, neuroscience, and mathematics.

After the clubs and the releases, I went looking for something older and quieter. I drove the back roads of Greece, slept under clear skies, and slowly fell for the universe. For astrophysics, for the way everything is connected by long, real lines. The music became a soundtrack to the wandering. This is the diary I keep meaning to write.

Where the road went

Every pin is a place a photograph was taken, pulled straight from the pictures. The gold line follows the journey across Greece, year by year, from the foot of Mount Olympus onward.
