We live the era of ultimate connectionism. Humans, robots and algorithms are edging towards a new cognitive revolution; inch by inch we are all joining a hybrid hive mind. At Castalia we celebrate and accelerate this change. We strive to bring about a new context for M2M: Mind-to-Machine communication.


ABOUT US

We are a team of engineers and innovation consultants bringing together cross-disciplinary skillsets in Artificial Intelligence and Human-Machine Interfaces aiming to streamline Mind-to-Machine communication.

For humans it’s about convenience. Convenience in a two-way interaction that enables a virtuous circle of outsourcing cognition and to obtaining crucial insights.

For machines it’s about comprehension. Comprehension of concepts on a higher level, one step closer to humans’ mental capacity We produce the fundamental tools that companies can use to enhance their technology-based products and services; controlling machines, bringing together and visualising multi-dimensional data and sharing knowledge with our beloved automatons like we are used to teaching each-other. Effortlessly.
