About Chris

I have worked as a computer programmer since 2000. I currently work for Chase Paymentech where we write software using the .NET platform for their sales and boarding departments.
 
I am currently an undergraduate student at the University of South Florida seeking a degree in economics.
 
According to Webster’s dictionary, the word economy comes from the Greek word oikonomia. Oikonomia comes from the word oikonomos, meaning household manager. The word economy in its original form meant, the “management of household or private affairs and especially expenses”.
 
The soul of management is decision making. Economics is literally the study of how and why human beings make decisions in the face of scarce resources.
 
I am interested in the foundations of economics. Much of my work focuses on the nature of mind and decision making.
 
Within the fields of mind and decision making, my research areas of interest include:
  • Philosophy of mind, ethics, law, and aesthetics
  • Mind, Computation, and Decision making
  • Brain-to-Computer interfaces
 
Online papers I have written:
 
Additionally, I am interested in the nature, philosophy, and history of money, banking systems, and the mechanics of our modern debt based fiat money and associated central banking systems.
 
My research areas of interest include:
  • Modern banking systems and how they work
  • The nature of money and banking
 
Online papers I have written:
 
Publications:
This book establishes reasons for believing in the existence of a non-material mind. The existence of a non-material mind is then presented as the basis for economic decision making, ethics, law, and aesthetics.
 
An audio version of the book has been produced which can be freely downloaded from LearnOutloud.com. A paper back version is available at Amazon.com

Simple Digital Computer Project

When I was about 12 years old, I was introduced to programming in Quick Basic. Ever since that time, I have always wanted to know how to design and build my own simple digital computer. I wanted to know how one worked right down to the level of bits, bytes, and logic gates. About 15 years later I finally took the time to research and build one. I created a seperate website, Simple Digital Computer.com, to document the project

Math Expression Parser Project

This is an API that I wrote to simplify mathematical expressions. It has support for most calculator functions such as trig and log functions and also supports variable names. Math Expression Parser Project
