We build worlds.
We change their laws.
We let intelligence
emerge.

Our focus
A new science of intelligence. We search for primitive operations beyond the compositional closure of human invention.

We build synthetic universes with deliberately strange laws, and study the intelligence that emerges.

Universe Foundry

Research direction

Cognogenesis studies the conditions under which intelligence emerges.

Cognogenesis

Research direction

Can intelligence originate under laws fundamentally unlike the ones that produced us?

Exogenesis

Our mission
Evolution found one mind. We explore what else is possible.

A compact recipe that grows its own intelligence wherever it is placed.

Mind Seeds

Research direction

One mind’s abstraction becomes another mind’s world.

Mind Collider

Research direction

Uncover the secrets of Universe Zero and the rise of EVA in the immersive "Toom Archives" experience.

Universe Zero

Research direction

What changes when effects can precede causes?

Alien Causality

Cognitive science

What if memory belongs to the environment rather than an individual?

External Memory

Research direction

Intelligence that becomes native to the world it inhabits.

Native Intelligence

Research direction

We build worlds. We change their laws. We let intelligence emerge.

Adaptive Worlds

Research direction

Dive deeper into Recursive Cosmogenesis's vision — an extraordinary blend of human-centric design and immersive storytelling.

Recursive Cosmogenesis

Cognitive science

A periodic table of cognition: which universes generate each element, what it does, and what it combines with.

Cognitive Elements

Cognitive science

From observation to prediction, from prediction to control.

Predictive Control

Cognitive science

Searching for kinds of cognition outside human invention.

Mind-space

Research direction

A reasoning mechanism that emerged on its own, with no human analogue.

Cognitive Fossils

Research direction

Architecture becomes an emergent answer.

Emergent Architecture

Research direction

Which assumptions are essential to thought, and which belong only to our universe?

The Laws of Thought
