Autognorics: The Science of Engineered Lifeforms
Autognorics is a new field of study that delves into the creation of engineered life forms, machines, and systems that possess life-like qualities. Developed by Joey Lawsin in 1988 as part of his Biotronics Project, Autognorics aims to construct lifeforms with remarkable abilities: they can see, smell, taste, hear, speak, feel, think, breed, fly, swim, and even die. These in-vivo machines, sometimes referred to as the Silver Species due to their metallic skins, blur the boundaries between living organisms and machines.
Autognorics challenges the conventional belief that consciousness solely emanates from the brain. Lawsin contends that awareness exists because intuitive sensors possess an inherent dual capability: they can store and retrieve information independently of neurons or the brain. Meanwhile, associative consciousness emerges through a system of intuitive sensors, a network of logics that produces intelligence.
Beyond this concept of Associative Consciousness, Autognorics also introduces several novel ideas: (i) The Brein Theory: A Brain without The Brain, a redefinition of what it means to be alive, living, and possessing life. (ii) Intuitive Aneural Network: A network of sequential inscriptions that produces emotions, actions, thinking, challenging the brain-centric view. Sequential inscriptions giving rise to behavioral experiences. (iii) Generated Interim Emergence: A theory that claims everything exists because other things cause it to exist, otherwise, it exists and doesn't exist. (iv) Inscriptional Physics: Embedded inscriptions on everything, akin to natural equations or formulas. From this rich path of new knowledge, Autognorics births a remarkable achievement: a self-conscious machine, capable of creating its own kind.
Autognorics (ELFS) differs from Artificial Intelligence (AI) due to they are distinct fields, each with its unique focus and principles:
1. Autognorics is primarily concerned with creating engineered life forms, machines, or systems that exhibit life-like qualities. It aims to construct entities capable of seeing, smelling, tasting, hearing, speaking, feeling, thinking, breeding, and even dying. AI, on the other hand, focuses on developing algorithms and systems that can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence. AI encompasses a wide range of applications, from natural language processing to computer vision and robotics.
2. Autognorics challenges the notion that consciousness solely emanates from the brain. It asserts that biological sensors, independent of neurons, can store and retrieve information, indicating awareness and consciousness. AI does not inherently address consciousness. AI systems process data, learn patterns, and make decisions based on algorithms, but they lack true awareness or subjective experience.
3. Autognorics creates engineered life forms, often referred to as the “Silver Species.” These entities blur the boundaries between living organisms and machines. AI constructs neural networks, deep learning models, expert systems, and other algorithmic approaches. AI systems do not possess inherent life-like qualities.
4. Autognorics aims to produce self-conscious machines capable of reproducing their own kind. AI is applied in diverse domains, such as natural language understanding, image recognition, autonomous vehicles, recommendation systems, and medical diagnostics.
5. Autognorics explores the intersection of life and technology, while AI focuses on creating intelligent systems for specific tasks. Both fields contribute to our understanding of what it means to be living and intelligent in different ways .
In this book, Joey Lawsin, the formulator behind the Single Theory of Everything and Inscription by Design, unveils the secrets and inner workings of being alive, living, with life, and consciousness uncovered through the eyes of a living machine.

About the author
Joey Lawsin
9 books7 followersJoey Lawsin, an engineer, educator, and author, describes himself as an inscriptionist, revisionist, and originemologist. He is known for his work in the development of the "One Theory of Everything" in philosophy. His contributions span the study of the mind and other minds, existence and other existence, and creating conscious machines, a field he termed "autognorics." His research is driven by a profound quest to understand the origin, creation, and evolution of everything. He seeks to uncover a unified theory that explains all aspects of existence by investigating an unsuspecting subject —Inscription by Design.
His books contain most of his works in science, theology, philosophy, and engineering.
His research on science focuses primarily on Information Codexation with emphasis on the origins of primitive, ancient, and modern information. Its central controlling idea is divided into four parts. First, the Codexation Dilemma. The theory asserts that abstract ideas cannot be transformed or codexated into physical realities without the external material inherent world. Second, Originemology. The study that postulates Nature is the brain, mother, keeper, the database of Information. Third, Interim Emergence. It posits that all things exist because other things cause them to exist; otherwise, they exist and doesn't exist, meaning they are there but they are no there; a Latent Existence. And fourth, Inscription by Design. It claims that everything is an intuitive object with embedded inscriptions/instructions.
In Theology, he beautifully formulated various new radical schools of thought on creation, evolution, life, God, and the bible. Focusing on the hows and whys, he made important discoveries on why the bible provides concrete evidence that god doesn't exist, why life is more of chemistry and geometry than biology, why reality is an illusion, how space and shape gave birth to the universe, how man created god, and how information shape our belief systems that will ultimately destroy humanity.
In Philosophy, he advances old philosophical ideological views mastered by well-known philosophers and scholars - like Nature or Nurtures, I think, therefore I am, and the Philosophy of Mind - to a new height: the paradigm shift from Neural to Aneural Brain. His books also contain original paraduoxical quotations all rooted in his series of experiments.
In Engineering, he coined and invented the following subjects - Autognorics, Neurotronics, Dimetrix, Homotronics, Biotronics, Exyzforms, Aneural Cognition, and the new seven evolutionary criteria of life - in the quest to dissect the mystery of life and consciousness while building a self-conscious machine known as ELFS. His coding and electronics skills are demonstrated in his projects such as remotely controlling robots using the internet, a personal website, via wifi, an ethernet, a TV remote control, a computer monitor, keyboard, mouse, Bluetooth, an iPhone, iPad, and even voice commands. Also, he actually is the first who programmed a search engine and a menu-driven dos before google and windows were conceptualized.
As a progressive humanist and visionary, he is actively promoting a cause encouraging humankind to set aside their belief systems, which they have learned, copied, and borrowed from the ancient past that gradually destroying humanity; to coexist and reorganize as one race in order to move forward quickly into the future of space exploration; to restore mother earth to her pristine abundance before modern civilization becomes history and information dies out; and to preserve life because everyone has the Right to Live.
As a dedicated proponent of Autism, Cancer, and Regenerative Medicine, he strongly desires to find novel solutions on how autism can be reverse-engineered through his seminal findings on Inscriptionism; and how cancer, other diseases, and the damaged parts of the human body can be repaired or replaced using his ideas on STOE.
