WE REPEAT THE SAME STATES — again and again during the day, and then again the next day.
We use substances and other signals to wake up, concentrate, relax, change how we feel, and our perception. But what happens when the same changes are repeated?
I DID NOT SPEND THIS TIME JUST TO WRITE TWO BOOKS ABOUT ADDICTION.
Nicotine was only the entry point.
The investigation followed what happens behind repeated stimulation — through metabolism, one-carbon chemistry, and the recurring presence of CH₃, the methyl group.
Then the question became bigger:
COULD THE FORMATION OF ADDICTIVE ENERGY HAVE A MUCH OLDER CHEMICAL PREHISTORY?
In 2025, the investigation moved beyond the human organism and toward the Earth itself.
To MILOS — VOLCANIC ISLAND IN GREECE
Here, the investigation follows minerals, volcanic chemistry, water, oxygen, sulfur, iron, manganese, salt and carbon — chemical conditions connected to the emergence and transformation of biological chemistry.
IN MILOS, YOU ENTER THE INVESTIGATION FROM THE OTHER DIRECTION:
FROM MODERN ADDICTION BACK TOWARD THE EARTH.
Not to find an ancient cigarette or an ancient drug, but to investigate the chemical conditions from which the systems capable of repetition, regulation and continuation could emerge.
THIS IS THE FORMATION OF ADDICTIVE ENERGY ON EARTH.
And the investigation does not stop there.
It asks:
What happens between one state and the next?
What remains unfinished?
What does the organism carry forward?
This is where the investigation enters a completely different state of inquiry — the timing gate, where what has happened, what is still unfolding, and what is becoming next exist together.
You are coming to Milos. You will probably see beaches, volcanic rocks, thermal waters and old mines.But during this investigation, you are going to look at the island differently.
Milos is one of the places where you can actually see the materials and processes that became important to the history of Earth — sulfur, iron, manganese, thermal water, carbon, salt and the movement of energy through different conditions.
I came here because I had been investigating addiction since 2014, and I wanted to understand something much more fundamental: how does addictive energy become possible in the first place?
Instead of starting with another explanation about addiction, I followed the movement backwards — from the human organism, through substances and carbon chemistry, and into the Earth itself.
So while you are travelling through Milos, this is another way to travel through the island. At each place, we will look at something that is actually there, and use it to follow one part of the story.
By the end, you will not have simply seen Milos as a volcanic island. You will have followed a trajectory from the chemistry of the Earth to the chemistry of the human organism, and you will have seen how I arrived at my investigation of addictive energy.

Finally after 12 years, the research moved beyond information.
The volcanic landscapes of Milos, Greece, became a living laboratory to build the next state of the investigation
