Amazon: "#1 New Release in Phenomenological Philosophy"
The Absence of Reality: Aphorisms, Observations, Reality, and the Nature of Existence (A Chapbook) by E. Hughes.
E. Writer
Thought I would share a short video that I narrated about my new chapbook, The Absence of Reality. The book provides aphorisms and short observations about the nature of reality and perception. The quotes are sometimes long, sometimes as short as free verse poetry. The book provides commentary and criticisms about our increasingly digital world and the future of humanity. – E. Hughes

Very interesting. Makes me think of Plato who insists that reality we see is but shadows of another. Plato envision a dual, or more, reality. The two he talked about are the "world of becoming" and the "World of Being."
His writings sparked the renaissance and the western humanist world view.
E. Writer Plato's Cave boils down to, "perception is reality." Sadly, we are living in an era where we cannot trust what we see, or worse, what we hear. One of the points I'm making is that we are no longer striving for reality, but striving for what is unreal. The more we advance technologically, the more artificial our reality becomes. The greatest threat we face, is the great replacement, of hunankind.
They have the preorder up fast. The book was only approved yesterday or the day before. It's only a five day preorder. But I thought I'd get this out here while working on marketing. So these books will pretty much ship right away https://www.amazon.com/dp/1961823241

The Absence of Reality: Aphorisms, Observations, Reality and the Nature of Existence (A Chapbook) by E. Hughes is coming soon. Release date: October 23, 2025.
The Absence of Reality explores human existence and whether we are living in an artificial reality. An artificial reality is the construct of social and technological advances, the hidden objective reality, and humanity's inability to perceive the world in its natural unaltered state. As the human population marches forward to the Initium Novum Era of human existence, the next stage of artificial reality, simulacra, and simulated environments, are we coding our own extinction?

I think there are parallel universes with coinciding realities.
There are now observable phenomena in deep space that suggests this might be the case, As I posted elsewhere:
On May 21, 2019 a team of astrophysicists working at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory ([LIGO]) observed a very strange thing in a place and, far, far, away in deep space.
The LIGO is actually a facility operating in two parts, in tandem, thousands of miles apart. One in Hanford Washington, another in Livingstion Louisiana. It's purpose is to detect gravitational wave disturbances in the space-time continuum.
Since 2015 it has detected more than 90 such disturbances, but the one on May 2019 was so odd that the team cannot come up with a better explanation than to hypothesize that an artifact of a parallel universe was captured passing though a worm hole.
On that day the equipment was trained on a pair of binary black holes in the process of colliding, or rather "merging". The expected pattern of gravitational wave disturbances was a spin, owing to the massive forces swirling around in the neighborhood of two black holes merging, The swirling wave would signal an ascending tonal "chirp".
On May 19, 2019, something came through with no swirl, no ascending chirp, an inexplicable monotone meaning it traveled straight through the field undisturbed by the forces.
They say this is owing to the artifact traveling though a worm hole in the field from a parallel universe. Who knows, a universe co-exsting beside ours, or within ours, or around ours
E. Writer I heard about this. The accepted theory is that chirping sound is 2 black holes colliding. Scientists must choose the most probable explanation for this phenomenon and the prevailing assumption is that it's a collision. They've monitored gravitational waves as well, which are thought to be caused by such collisions. However, the answers for now are all hypothesis and speculatory science. I do believe there are other universes, but not parallel where everything is the same but opposite our universe. I believe there is a hierarchy of nested universes, each with their own physics and rules.
My new book is called, "The Absence of Reality: Aphorisms and observations about space, time, reality, and the nature of existence. " There's so much research involved. And I can never stay on task. I write one thing and end up writing more than I planned to write.
Steven McKain I will definitely look for it 👍🏻
What are you writing today? 🤫
SJ Blues my back says nothing 😞
Steven McKain The next book in the Redemption Trail saga. 👍🏻
E. Writer Nice, I can definitely see it as a series.
Steven McKain It will be on the way in no time Darlin’ 😁
Many writers sit at a computer for many hours writing their books. This is unhealthy and can often lead to blood clots (as I have personally experienced in the past year, due to sitting at a computer editing for 16+ hours on some days). Here are some exercises authors and editors can do while sitting. These are healthy exercises for young and seniors alike.
