Hello, I’m Tucker Wilson, founder of The Vitruvian Protocol.

I build Duality Blends and write The Vitruvian Protocol, an ongoing study in modern philosophy and practice: where ancient wisdom meets creative action.

My mission is simple: to discover a philosophy that offers solutions to the existential questions that plague the modern world. This Substack closes when my philosophy is formed, for thought without action is incomplete. Once the foundation is set, I’ll leave the page and build in the world. The philosophy becomes whole when it enables one to live a life of excellence.

There are three main objectives that I have in mind:

• Engaging in the act of creation. The goal is to create more than one consumes. By participating in the act of creation, the mind becomes enabled to form independent thoughts and teaches the individual to think critically.

• Merging the historical with the modern. Taking lessons from Leonardo’s Vitruvian Man and other great historical works, in order to create a modern philosophical framework that the reader can use to cultivate agency and develop the willpower to be a person of creation, rather than one of consumption.

• Defining Values. When history is not only ignored but dismissed, we fall into cultural amnesia: standing on ground that no longer holds. The values worth cultivating, the ones that built civilizations, have been forgotten. I seek to recover them, and to show that these very principles are what will carry us forward.
