HOW TO READ IT
  • Each point is a philosopher, colored by their dominant archetype.
  • Nearness on the plane means similar positions on the 16 underlying dimensions — Buddha and Hume both score high on "Self as Illusion" but for opposite reasons, so they sit near each other for a specific axis, and far apart on others.
  • Hover any point for the name, dates, and key idea. Click to open their full page.
  • After you take the quiz, your own point appears with a pulsing halo so you can see your nearest kin.
