We begin asking before we have words. The kind of questions that shaped me never found a field. What are we that we can ask what we are? What good is love if it is not true?
The questions worth keeping refuse a discipline. Go deep enough and the boundaries between fields become thin. Depth opens into breadth. The search becomes a way of seeing. In time, it reveals the seer.
The best theory is no theory. Every theory is a window. No window gets the whole sky. So I hold every model lightly, including my own.
Ten years so far, across code, companies and contemplative practice. Sensemaking is the name this work wants, a field still becoming. I bring the angles. The conclusion is yours.
