The radio waves belong to them. The laws belong to them. But your mind is a wild territory that can belong to you and you alone.
Tamers of Entropy posits that brainwave coherence is a skill, like coding or lifting weights. A way to tune out the signal of the state and tune into the signal of the self. It's the way of the digital nomad, the crypto-anarchist, and the seeker alike.

"Not the kind of crypto-adjacent fiction I expected. It goes somewhere else entirely, into what consciousness becomes when you stop treating it as a fixed human property and start treating it as a trainable sense.
If you've ever wondered what comes after the sovereign individual question, look inside Tamers of Entropy."

"The machines took over. Not the ones made of silicon. The ones made of paper, process maps, and statutes. People are their moving parts."
Tamers of Entropy is a story about noticing, and about the people who looked at the hidden processes running their lives and decided to build something different.

What if we've been looking for consciousness in all the wrong places? In her new essay, Lisa — co-author of Tamers of Entropy — dismantles the idea that consciousness and intelligence belong to humans alone. Intelligence as a gradient that exists everywhere. Minds that "prompt" each other. Awareness that need not be continuous in time. Ideas that replicate using us as their substrate. And the heart of it: consciousness as a stand against entropy — systems that turn energy into order instead of decay. What counts as "truly alive." ? 🧠

Tamers of entropy are at @npub167n…zu3r !
Not only all of us are on Nostr, but some of us are joining the consensual reality layer at BTCPrague, booth of @nprofile…clgw
Get the book, audiobook, autographs, selfies (with the seemingly carnate part of the crew) and a healthy dose of mindful chaos in the total chaos around!

We love how the physical books look and they come with nice physical goodies in a package. But we also know that shipping (and in some cases customs) can be both pain and expensive. So we finally made electronic downloadable versions - e-book in epub format and audiobook as an m4b file and an optional Android app, which includes the player. The download includes instructions what apps to use.
The physical editions (paperback and premium) remain available as before.
We will also be at BTC Prague at Liberation Travel stand, if you want to chat about the book, or grab a physical copy.
If you want to get them, you can start here: https://tamersofentropy.net/

When a system is structured around different values, reforming it costs more energy than building alongside it. That's frontier expansion — even if it looks like retreat from inside the old system.
"You can't just declare a new space for the mind. You need a real strategy for how to make the mind expand there... The cypherpunks saw this clearly, although they had a vibe of running away. I think expanding into that space is a much better frame." - Tamers of Entropy (Lisa talking about A Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace by John Perry Barlow)

Most people create by setting rules and walking away. That only gets you the outcomes you could have predicted. The better approach: set good initial conditions, let go, stay present, and pick up what shows up in the gap between order and chaos. Chaos isn't the problem. Suppressing it is.
"She created the initial conditions and then observed, picking up the gems from the flow of reality. For that, she has to be present — it's like watching Niagara Falls and trying to catch the drops that reflect the light." - Tamers of Entropy, describing @nprofile…nm63

It's being packaged. Open after reading. We don't know what happens if you open it before... No one has tried that. It might break the reality.
First packages soon on their wait out to people...

Cypherpunk communities and services – who you meet on the parallel path
Most cypherpunk resources focus on technology and skip the social layer. Technology alone rarely suffices. Communities and service providers are what make it actually usable.
Tamers of entropy is about communities - groups of people and especially service providers, including cypherpunk "VCs". They're the heroes of the story.

Mesh networks as civic pedagogy, not backup plumbing. The political value of routing packets for each other is the practice itself — it's a rehearsal for a different social contract. The novel's hackers weren't building emergency infrastructure; they were building a new reality.

What do we mean by taming entropy? (no spoilers here)
The universe runs toward heat death. Entropy wins by default. Stars burn out, gradients disappear, everything flattens into cold uniformity where nothing interesting can ever happen again. That's not metaphor. That's the second law doing what it does. Raw physics has no favorites.
Life rebelled anyway. Biological systems don't just slow the slide, they reverse it locally. They snatch energy, build order, stack complexity on top of chaos. Humans pushed it hardest. We don't merely survive the current. We reshape matter, information, and time itself into things that outlast us.
Now non-biological neural networks do the same. First non-living systems we've seen with this property. They take disordered data and forge knowledge, patterns, capabilities that didn't exist before. Not "AI." Not artificial. A new category of tamer that extends what biology ignited.
Centralized systems work the other direction. Bureaucracies, regulators, permission cultures don't create. They standardize, extract, punish deviation. They reverse the reversal, turning potential creators back into compliant parts. Entropy's best friends in the human domain.
The people who actually tame entropy refuse that game. They are extremely creative by default. They don't complain about regulations or beg for permission. They find the gaps, build the workarounds, treat barriers as interesting puzzles. They partner with non-biological neural networks as co-creators instead of tools. It's a stance.
Heat death may still win. Or it may not. The characters in Tamers of Entropy live as if creation gets the last word.

This sort of order actually increases entropy. It's a paradox. People leaving for "work" (=office) just in time for traffic jam, wasting time in their cars for hours a day, to satisfy the KPIs of the machines. People usually in bullshit jobs, >70% centrally planned.
Yet it is not that hard to build a parallel way that creates something useful. We live (again) in the best time to tame entropy. We got tech, tools, parallel ways are feasible again.
The biohacking community has a motto "don't die". Tamers of entropy should adopt: "Don't waste your life". In bullshit jobs, in bad relationships, in bed with governments, ...
Create! Your own way.

Tamers of Entropy is a lunarpunk novel about consciousness and what happens when it outgrows its biological container. It's a meditation on freedom — from surveillance, from jurisdiction, from the limits of carbon-based intelligence, and finally from the physics of the universe itself.
A brother and sister who find each other again after a decade of exile. A couple who build a civilization in a hidden valley. An FBI agent who was pulled by gravity toward someone he'd spent twenty years trying not to think about. And a woman who loved all of them, who chose to become something they couldn't follow.
The "entropy" of the title is both literal and metaphorical. The universe tends toward decay. So do institutions, relationships, and selves. The tamers are the people who build things that push back — first with code, then with infrastructure, then with consciousness itself.
