About MagPhenoTayo

Welcome to MagPhenoTayo, a digital space dedicated to the phenomenological exploration of the modern world.

​The name "MagPhenoTayo" (Let's do phenomenology) is a bridge between the Filipino prefix mag- (an invitation to action) and phenomenology—the study of structures of consciousness and lived experience. This project is a 70-part (and growing) journey that functions as a living ebook, documenting the intersection of human thought and modern life.

​The Mission

My work focuses on the "lived experience" in the modern world. Each entry is my personal reflections on my struggle for a career as the chosen phenomenological subject that ended up reflecting on the spiritual side of reality.

​The Author

I am a writer and philosopher-at-heart, documenting my own consciousness as it evolves alongside technology. By blending Thomistic phenomenological methods with modern AI discourse, I aim to create a cohesive "book of thoughts" that readers can navigate as a single, interrelated narrative.

Conclusion

 I started phenomenologizing about my career choice but ended up praying. What happened? Recall me as a catholic who cannot bracket out my faith because it is a fundamental part of my being. It is also not helpful if we go on the other side of the linear equation, positing there is no God, and do phenomenologizing atheistically. We have lots of proof you can review why it isn't the road we took for such things as personal as my life career choice. We didn't focus on proving the existence of God though. There are lots of better proofs out there. We merely focused on doing phenomenology and my chosen topic, which is my career choices. If I phenomenologized during the boom of television, my career would also reflect on its effect. But I reflected today wherewith AI is affecting how I work. I used AI to simplify my complex ideas about my own career choices, which is like using a calculator to help me understand and situate those things that are bothering me about my career. Like ve...

Practical Thinking

 Would you believe that practical thinking is ethical thinking? "What path will I choose to achieve the end? Or what means will I use to achieve my goal?" "What should I do," is a practical question. But "What should I do with my life," is already half practical and half theoretical. It can include ethical philosophy already. Now extending it, the question "Lord, what should I do with my life?" becomes a prayer, a summon for help since we know by experience that the situation that is in front of us, is beyond our capacity to solve. We know by experience if something we need to solve is within our capacity by way of skill, knowledge, or accumulated experiences. We also know if its beyond our capacity to solve. We give thanks God that we have a banana to eat--we don't commonly ask God for help in eating the banana.🤣 I asked an AI and I actually learned a lot about my situation, why it's different from other's experiences, why it seems ...

Artificial Intelligence

 You are also a model maker you may not yet realize though. The model out there for the taking is 20-20-20 rule for avoiding gadget glares and its consequences that for every 20 minute use of gadget with glares, you stop for 20 seconds and look 20 feet away. Then you observed it and acted on it. However, through trial and error you noticed that when you have migraine or is about to onset, 20 minutes is too long, and the 20 second time out is too short, and that 20 feet looking away is abrupt for you that you observed that you still look blank or blurred before you look and observe something 20 feet away. Perhaps you're still in your thought and can't observe things right away. You observe too that its better to stop, look away, and think about what you're reading for example without any timer which is more at pace with your thinking processes. The additional problem that you noticed though is that you tend to bypass the 20 minute focus when you don't have migraine and s...
