The mechanical nature of chess analysis and tactical variations is self evident, and it is too easy to assume that this alone makes chess what it is, but rather, we believe here at that the abstract and metaphysical character of the game is just as valid and perhaps not equally enough explored or defined! On you will witness the exploration of the memetic and metaphysical aspects of all matter of possible and classifiable chess positions, be it tactical ones, those that are purely strategic minded, symmetries, geometries as well as entire games and whatever have you! Algebraic notation is another language and though quite useful for recording games it is not necessarily the natural language of the human mind and spirit as we all know that there is more to the world than letters and numbers, that is, that there is a subtle sense and touch of the abstract in everything we know, feel, breathe and experience.

Chess can become quite expansive and enlightening once we we learn to speak the language of chess in common thought and sense terms that everyone can understand. The memetic and the metaphysical are and will be re-occurring themes of the site and the discourse you will find on the site. Or maybe you do not have any particular goals of improvement in the game, but rather you are someone who is quite simply just looking to derive ever new pleasures from the infiniteness of the chess board, in which case this site also strives to serve that purpose most dutifully as well. I think this approach can help just about anybody who is looking to improve their game whether you are already a Grandmaster, the World Champion or are a virgin novice to the game. An element of a culture or system of behavior that may be considered to be passed from one individual to another by nongenetic means, especially imitation. First of all, hello and welcome to this little corner of the internet chess space! The chess community has always been a close-knit one and this evergreen game of pawns, kings, queens, rooks, bishops and knights has always been a wonderful past time and means of socializing and making new friends as well as maintaining old friends together with their shared mutual love of the game! So I want to start by first thanking you, my friend, for both coming to this site and also for taking the time and interest to read our “about page” as well.Ĭ is basically just a chess blog, one, however, that is primarily aimed for those that enjoy approaching chess from the angle of it being a game of ideas (ideas which can be spread and shared like “ memes“), ideas that can be classified and understood as something concrete rather than as just nebulous abstract variations that have no clear tangible meaning. Memes A way of describing cultural information being shared.
