Overview

"If your life is not what you thought it would be, then you should have conformed to the median. It was your choice. Now take what we give you and get off of the playground." 

Our music is now filtered, and we no longer sense the emotions the artists intended. Our films and videos are now filtered, and the infinite colors and depth of light found only in nature have been removed. And now our value as human beings is being filtered, and gone are the subtle nuances that make us individuals. In the quest to obtain maximum consumption by the masses our technology sector, using binary computing, has reduced nature's infinite resolution of human communication, desires and interaction into fragments; which when re-assembled, barely represent the source they were designed to duplicate. Through statistical "probabilities", they then make the decision as to what is profitable and, therefore, of "value"…and what (or who) is not. This obsession with "data" is defining who among us is relevant and who is not based on a checklist created by those working to gain control over our lives. The author presents an extremely rare and accurate perspective of how and why we are developing a sense of isolation for the simple crime of thinking and feeling differently than what the "data" says we should. In a series of true-life anecdotes and stories he walks us through a memoir to the source of his perspective. Leading to a comprehensive thesis of what brought us to this place; and more importantly, how we can escape from it

About the author
J. Thomas Russell's past three decades have brought success as a writer, producer, audio engineer, musician and inventor. He now takes the stage to present a memoir-to-thesis manuscript on a subject whose societal impact has become possibly one of the most overlooked biophysical and mental health issues of our time. With a lifetime of experiences moving back and forth from technology to artistry, from pragmatic statistical analysis to the intangibles found within human to nature relationships, his perspectives are rooted in real-life events with real-life persons; many being of the world's most notable and celebrated individuals in science, entertainment, medicine, law and politics. With these diverse experiences came the enlightenment as to what humans can and cannot replicate. The passion for authenticity along with a deep understanding of who we are in the scope of nature has fueled both his life and relationships; coupled with what has now developed into a rare perspective on how we have recently evolved as a civilization. Russell's crossover of both personal and professional interactions with otherwise polarizing individuals is what inspired his talent in recognizing the obvious simplicities of solutions; and what he believes is a personal obligation in bringing those solutions to our attention.
