Self-Introduction

 

I decided to publish my findings and streams of thoughts in the form of the blog during the self-quarantine period. For those who are indifferent to the nature of matters, this blog would probably seem highly complacent, but I wish my idea will be worth reading at least for some of you.

 

The name "Codex Katlanticus" stems from the title given to one of Leonardo Da Vinci's notebooks with the addition of my initial K.

 

Leonardo da Vinci is arguably among the most well-known men of universality. Although he is most renowned for his paintings, these achievements only constitute a small portion of his greater contribution. He left enormous notebooks flooded with breathtaking drawings and mirrored letters that collectively harmonise the underlying principle of nature, some of which are still beyond our comprehension.

 

The reason why I refer to him is that I set him as a model of my life.

 

Having read hid biography and notebooks, I realised that his central philosophy is "Nothing is superior to nature." With this in mind, he voraciously sophisticated his understanding of nature through the eyes of science.

 

And this is the very quality that I aspire to attain.

 

From now on, I will inscribe my feelings in this blog in the pretentious hope that this will weigh as much as his notebooks in the future.
