The Qualiadelic Economy: A Gift Beyond Addiction

This poetic, provocative essay invites you to imagine an economy built not on addiction and accumulation, but on beauty, presence, and the felt textures of reality—what philosophers call qualia. From dopamine to devotion, from ecosystems to AI, this visionary work reweaves meaning into how we live, give, and value what truly matters. A soulful manifesto for a future where the richest among us are those who share the most wonder.
