My research interests lie at the intersection of philosophical systems theory, applied systems science, and practical systems technologies.
General Systems Theory
Systems theory provides the foundational concepts and frameworks that guide all of my research. Currently working on: a formal systems ontology
Applied Systems Science
Taking theoretical concepts into practical domains to understand real-world systems. I'm revising a working paper: A Deep Systems Analysis of Bitcoin
Modern Systems Technologies
Building tools that enable deeper understanding and more effective intervention in complex systems. BERT a tool for deep systems analysis.
Philosophy
- Humanistic systems research.
- Synthesizing holistic and reductionist perspectives while maintaining both rigor and flexibility.
- Integrating lessons learned from early systems pioneers with modern methodologies, building on solid intellectual foundations rather than reinventing them.
- Systems scientists need tools
