In the second chapter, Faisal introduces his theory of datascape; the 21st century concept of space He explains the reason he chose to focus on 'space' and takes you through the history of the concept; from Newton through Einstein. He then touches on some frontiers in neuroscience and quantum physics like Stuart Hameroff and Roger Penrose's theory of Orch-OR (Orchestrated Objective Reduction) and why this is important. He also speaks about some architectural inspirations for the concept of datascape; primarily Patrik Schumacher and Greg Lynn

In the first chapter, Faisal introduces some of the topics he will be discussing through the series, as well as some of his interests He discusses concepts from architecture (the architects he likes, the styles he's interested in, the formation of modernism, and a bit of 'datascape'), philosophy (the philosophers he likes, the theories he's interested in, and some 'determinism'), theology (the theologians he likes, the religions he likes to study, and concepts like 'Pascal's Wager' and the 'Kalam Argument'), quantum physics (the fundamentals of the quantum world and particle physics), astrophysics (the relationship between Earth, The Sun, The Solar System, The Milky Way Galaxy, and The Universe), evolutionary biology (the different categories of taxonomy and Alan Turing's paper 'The Chemical Basis for Morphogenesis'), ancient history (the Younger Dryas Impact, Graham Hancock, Randall Carlson, and Atlantis), and culture!
