About the Author

Ash Stuart is a seasoned technologist with over three decades of experience in programming and technological innovation across diverse business domains. His professional journey spans engineering, business strategy, entrepreneurship, and consulting—all with relevance to the technology sector.

Beyond his professional expertise, Ash has cultivated deep personal interests in a wide range of disciplines both in the sciences and the humanities, including history, economics, comparative linguistics and etymology, geopolitics, epistemology, philosophy and more. These explorations have given him uncommon breadth and depth of knowledge that informs his unique perspective on our rapidly changing world.

The Publication

Polymathon represents Ash's dedication to exploring the interconnections between diverse disciplines and building a comprehensive epistemological foundation. This publication examines how intelligence, knowledge, and information can be understood and applied across traditional disciplinary boundaries.

Unlike Ash's main publication which focuses on specific applications of a particular intellectual framework, Polymathon takes a broader approach to building a web of understanding across multiple domains simultaneously and in a holistic, integrated manner.

The Experience

This publication offers readers:

  • An exploration of fundamental concepts that underpin multiple disciplines

  • A methodology for connecting seemingly disparate fields of knowledge

  • Insights into how polymathic thinking enhances understanding of complex systems

  • Preparation for a future where cross-disciplinary intelligence becomes increasingly valuable

New content will be published periodically, with each piece contributing to an evolving interconnected framework of knowledge and understanding.

For those curious about the inspiration behind this project and Ash's intellectual journey, the Introduction article provides more details in his own voice.


Ash here. Just to let you know, the above content About me is mostly AI generated (Claude Sonnet 3.7). However, as far as my own articles are concerned, I write them myself and in my very own voice, for that’s the point of the whole thing dammit!
