I grew up in the same small Yorkshire town as Fred Hoyle, the astronomer who coined the term Big Bang.

Later I studied mathematics at Warwick University, with Professor Colin Rourke as my personal tutor.

It was over 20 years ago, working in Dublin that I discovered python, and soon after matplotlib.

I contributed a table module to matplotlib, and a version of this now resides in blume, which is intended to explore tables more generally. My idea was to create a few examples as I explored data sets that interested me and use that to shape the table module.

Seven years ago Rourke published, "A New Paradigm for the Universe". It outlines a complete model for the universe, without the need for dark matter or dark energy.

When the second edition was published, under the new title, The Geometry of the Universe, I started the gotu project, to help me explore the ideas in the book and test the theories in the book with the incredible data available from space based missions.

Rourke's theory suggests that Fred Hoyle was correct after all and the Big Bang did not happen. With JWST showing fully formed galaxies soon after the Big Bang, it is a theory that deserves investigation.

My goal with the gotu project is to raise awareness of Rourke's work and enable others to explore his ideas with python software and matplotlib visualisations.

Hi there! I’m Taylor Puch, a dedicated advocate, researcher, and customer relations expert with a deep passion for the intersection of psychedelics, psychology, and advocacy. My academic journey culminated in a master’s degree in Research Psychology from Purdue University Global, where I graduated with a 4.0 GPA and published my thesis on the therapeutic potential of psilocybin in managing depression. This work not only fueled my interest in psychedelics but also shaped my commitment to advancing mental health treatment.

Currently, I serve as the Concierge Coordinator at Psychedelic Passage, where I connect individuals seeking psychedelic experiences with trusted facilitators, ensuring a compassionate and supportive process for those seeking therapeutic psychedelic experiences. My role allows me to leverage my expertise while fostering safe and transformative journeys for clients.

As an ambassador for the Students for Sensible Drug Policy, I advocate for harm reduction and drug policy reform at both the national and state levels. My involvement with the Policy Council Tactical Team has been particularly rewarding, where I’ve coordinated meetings with legislators and worked on critical initiatives to promote sensible drug policies.

Additionally, as a Youth Advisor for EntheoIL, I focus on increasing access to entheogens and supporting legislative efforts like the CURE Act. I’m passionate about creating a diverse and inclusive psychedelic ecosystem that prioritizes equity and community investment.

When I’m not immersed in research or advocacy, you might find me enjoying the outdoors or engaging with my local community. I’m excited about the future and look forward to contributing to the evolving landscape of psychedelic research and policy!

Let’s connect and explore how we can make a positive impact together!
