About Me


Brief Biography, Lifestyle, & Personal Ad.

* * *


           Scientist, philosopher, poet, environmentalist, free thinker, scholar and successful businessman. I love nature and animals, truth, beauty, and art, and enjoy living among all. I currently live in a big brick house on top of a hill on 16 acres of forest in an extensive natural area of the New Jersey Highlands. I'm generally easy going, peaceful, healthy living and loving. I have few material needs and believe in investing for the future and living in nature with a low carbon footprint.

           I was born April 1st, 1941 and quickly discovered that reality is not as it appears. A child prodigy, I entered the University of Tulsa aged 15 and received a B.S. with honors in science and mathematics with a minor in philosophy at 18 before completing several more years of graduate study in physics and philosophy.

           In the early 60’s I moved to the Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco and hung out with notables from the Beat Generation while conducting an intense personal study of the nature of mind and consciousness. From there I traveled to Japan where I lived for three years studying Zen and Buddhist philosophy while subsisting as a ronin English teacher.

           Upon returning to the US I began a career in computer science writing numerous programs in artificial intelligence, simulations, graphics, and cellular automata while designing and programming advanced computer systems for the New York Federal Reserve Bank and AT&T. While at the Fed I single handedly designed and programmed the database software system used to store and report the official US Balance of Payments. I then left the corporate world to start my own software business marketing my various CAD programs. Currently I own and manage a premier internet gallery of fine ancient art and classical numismatics at EdgarLOwen.com.

           Deeply immersed in nature since childhood, and always considering it the ultimate source of my inspiration and knowledge of reality, I've served as Chairman of the local Environmental Commission and organized several campaigns to protect the local environment and its wildlife.

           Over the last several years I've worked to combine and organize the results of a lifetime of study of the various aspects of reality into a single Complete Theory of Everything. I now spend most of my time exploring the wonderful awesome mystery of reality and how it can be experienced more fully and deeply and enjoying my existence within it.

           I currently spend most of my time writing, communing with nature, and enjoying the company of my wild visitors, including the occasional human. I'm currently single and can be contacted at Edgar@EdgarLOwen.com.

           While I love my solitude, I'm getting older, and currently seeking a compatible, loyal, caring, natural, affectionate lady who believes that male-female relationships should be based on mutual love, trust and benefits. Hopefully young and healthy enough to be able to help me out through my old age. I'm also open to the possibility of a long term live-in friend or companion to share my house and help take care of things. Someone quiet, peaceful and down to earth who appreciates my thoughts and lifestyle would be ideal. That could be either a man or woman or even a couple.
