You’re probably telling yourself, “So first a Medium post and a livestream and now a substack?” To be fair, I wasn’t planning on doing this except that I realized it would be less taxing to write a newsletter with much more frequency, than to attempt to churn out a blog post every week.
The substack is simply a hub to provide links to things I’m currently working on and to provide a one-stop shop of interesting things I find online that are in-line with “cute_noumena”, as a whole.
I’ve always been fascinated with curation and as good as algorithms are at providing entertainment on the countless time wasting platforms we consume media on. I personally don’t think human curated media hubs are going anywhere anytime soon.
That’s why im making this Newsletter. This will become a place to curate a little snippet of the internet simply out of pure joy. If you have any suggestions follow me on Twitter @CNoumena to voice any feedback. Follow my Medium to keep up with my Blog, and finally my Twitch to watch my Livestreams.
Hope you enjoy!

The Einsteinian Paradigm gets examined in this easy to follow video by the YouTube channel Veritasium. The implications of understanding the Einstein synchronization convention, can give clues to what Nick Land is addressing in his book Cryptocurrent.
§2.312 — A cultural side-product of the Bitcoin protocol, then, is a cryptographic definition of time. Punctual-geometric ‘now’, as marked on a ‘time-line’, is replaced by an atomic unit of irreducible duration, coinciding with the completion of a block, and ordered successively on the chain. Between duration and succession, the relation is synthetic. The blockchain is constituted by a series of durations, which are not inter-convertible, or mathematically transformable into each other. Hash-time has ceased to be accurately representable as a dimension. A time-line merely analogizes it, to what is an ultimately inadequate level of definite fidelity.
