Intelligence
Information that acts. Intelligence follows computation from Turing’s machine to neural networks and AI agents, and asks where they help, where they fail and what should stay human.

Projects here
- DEVRIM HoldingsBuilding
The home for the ventures: a small portfolio run by one person, with AI agents doing much of the research, building and monitoring.
- TakeInBuilding
Own-brand online ordering for independent takeaway restaurants: orders arrive on the restaurant's own site and print in the kitchen.
- MyLifeConsultantLive
A personal plan for work, housing, money, healthcare and everyday life for people moving to the UK, in Turkish and English.
- evrimtekin.comLive
This site: a personal universe and knowledge platform built on one validated content model.
Writing here
- An operating system for a one-person portfolio
A control panel where AI agents propose work across several ventures, and anything irreversible waits for a human yes.
- Private AI that runs at home
Small open models running entirely on my own machines: an offline chat in the browser, and a home assistant that never leaves the network.
- An opportunity engine
Taking an open-source research framework built for trading and generalising it, so trading becomes one plugin among several.

Symbolic correspondences
Interpretation Older traditions mapped the cosmos through planets, metals, chakras and the Tree of Life. These pairings are this site’s own map; what each one means comes from its tradition, not from science.
Hermetic principle
Vibration
“Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates.”
Signals, clocks and thoughts are all patterns of change. Information is motion with a meaning.
Planet · metal
Mercury · Quicksilver
The messenger god rules intellect, language and trade. Its metal is mercury, the only metal liquid at room temperature.
Chakra · the throat
Throat Vishuddha
The sixteen-petalled lotus of expression: turning what is inside into words others can receive.
Tarot · Tree of Life
The Magician · Hod
The Magician turns will into action with the tools on his table; Hod, “Splendour”, is the sphere of intellect and language.
Sacred geometry
I Ching hexagram
Six lines, broken or whole. In 1703 Leibniz saw his new binary arithmetic in the ancient ordering of the 64 hexagrams.
Science 1950
Alan Turing, Computing Machinery and Intelligence
Turing replaced “can machines think?” with a test of conversation, and the question has not let go since.
