“All knowledge is connected to all other knowledge. The fun is in making the connections.“

Arthur C. Aufderheide

Hi, I’m Zach! This site serves as the home of my essays on understanding ourselves and the world around us. I’m fascinated with the mind, how we make decisions, and interact with our environment, technology, and with each other. I also write fiction which you can read if you just want to be entertained (hopefully).

Connecting dots and finding patterns in various fields is what keeps things interesting to me. I love learning how different topics influence each other and finding examples of how the micro and macro inform each other. If that interests you too, then I hope my writing will resonate with you.

If you want to reach out to share resources or ideas, ask questions, or just want to chat, feel free to email me at zachtylercohen -at- gmail or find me on Twitter. I also write a more frequent newsletter here.
