Who am I?

My name’s Arielle, and I’m a writer. I’ve spent the past five years traveling across Canada, the US and Mexico. I’ve lived in civilization’s frantic center, and at its edges, among its orphans and enemies.

My passion is the human mind, and I study it from several perspectives: mythological, neurological, and psychedelic. Technology is my uneasy ally, and I keep up with such areas as AI, biotech, and blockchain.

I believe we can know truth, both through subjective experience and reason. Science is a powerful epistemological tool, but so are speculation and leaps of faith—I employ them all, though I take care to assign each its place.

As crisis erupts across the culture, some themes have come to embody our era’s central dialectic: what is it to be human, and what should our relationship to our humanity be? These issues include Gender Wars, AI and technocracy, and they’ll be my focus.

I intend to publish articles every two weeks until my novel is done, after which I’ll publish once a week. Subscribe, and I’ll do my very best to provide quality content from an incisive, human perspective.
