About me
Curious mind, thoughtful voice
Hello! I'm Sohel Sagar, a writer and thinker exploring the intersections of technology, science, politics and philosophy. Every week I share my perspectives and insights on the world around us.
With a background in theoretical physics and a lifelong fascination with the big questions, I aim to make curious and thought-provoking topics accessible and engaging for everyone. My writing combines analytical thinking with creative expression to provide unique viewpoints on contemporary issues.
Whether it's delving into the deep unknowns of physics, analysing the latest AI breakthrough, exploring the implications of electoral reform, or pondering the nature of consciousness, I believe in the power of ideas to transform how we see the world.
