An offbeat exploration of consciousness, identity and the strange mechanics of being human

Let’s face it, the human experience is full of contradictions. One minute we’re engaged in lofty discussions about the nature of consciousness; the next, we’re shouting at the toaster for burning our crumpets. So what’s really going on here?

Unapologetically Human

The Fractured Soul is a thought-provoking journey through the strange mechanics of being human — from ancient ideas of unity & duality to the everyday weirdness of modern life, it takes an offbeat, gently irreverent look at what we call ‘normal’.

With humour, curiosity, and a distinctly mischievous edge, it explores how thought shapes identity, how perception creates a sense of reality, and how we came to feel like small, separate beings in a big, slightly alarming world.

It’s an invitation to look a little closer at what we’ve always taken for granted… and notice what doesn’t quite add up.

"You have a voice in your head.

It has opinions. It has plans.

It has a running commentary on absolutely everything.

And, at some point, it quietly convinced you that it was you."
