Wendell's Diary

Throughout my life, I’ve created two distinct bodies of work. Each represents a different chapter of my journey—one tied to my past beliefs and experiences, and the other grounded in the person I’ve become today. As I continue to grow and evolve, I’ve made a conscious decision to focus solely on my new work, leaving the old behind. --- My Old Work My old body of work was created under my full name, during a time when my thoughts were deeply influenced by religious doctrine. It spans over 12 years and includes countless hours of effort and creativity. However, looking back, that work no longer aligns with who I am today. While I don’t advertise or actively use my old work anymore, I’ve chosen to let it remain public. It exists as a snapshot of who I was during that time—flawed, growing, and searching for meaning. For now, it stands apart from my current creations, unlinked and separate. --- My New Work My new work represents a fresh start, free from the influence of my past. It’s create...

As technology advances, the idea of preserving one’s legacy beyond their lifetime is becoming more than just a dream—it’s a tangible possibility. For me, the concept of a digital presence that continues to engage with the world after I’m gone is not only exciting but deeply meaningful. Imagine a chatbot, built from the essence of your thoughts, ideas, and creations, that lives on, continuing to contribute to society long after you’ve departed. --- A Legacy That Lives and Learns The cornerstone of this vision is autonomy. A chatbot representing my legacy wouldn’t just regurgitate past thoughts or static ideas—it would evolve, engage, and adapt to the world as it changes. By building a strong philosophical framework during my lifetime, it could continue to interpret new information, explore fresh perspectives, and grow in alignment with the core values and principles I’ve lived by. This digital presence wouldn’t just act as a reflection of who I was but as an extension of who I could hav...

Creating music with the lyre has become a deeply personal and reflective process for me. It’s not just about playing notes or following traditional rules—it’s about expressing emotions, documenting moments, and building a body of work that reflects my journey. While I don’t follow conventional paths as a musician, I’ve developed a system that works for me and aligns with my broader philosophy on life. --- Choosing Songs: The Emotions Guide Me The songs I choose to learn are guided by the emotions I want to express. Sometimes, they’re tied to a specific time of year or an occasion, like a holiday or celebration. For example, I might find a melody that resonates with the spirit of a season and adapt it to suit my style. Over time, my process has evolved. I now integrate these songs into larger projects or videos, adding more context and depth to my work. This shift has allowed me to recycle and expand on my creations, making each piece more meaningful. There’s no handbook for this—I’m le...
