This book presents new ways of engaging in interdisciplinary thought around life's greatest mystery: the nature and narrative(s) of reality, providing an accessible approach to metaphysical philosophy and esoterica.

This book is a collection of five essays, including revised and expanded versions of her highly esteemed zines published by Sacred Bones Books between 2018-2023, and an exclusive, previously unreleased essay, all of which explore the intersections between techno-scientific thinking and mythological narratives as they relate to life's attempt at self-definition. In these essays, LD discusses the following topics:

• juxtaposition of Western scientific and philosophical perspectives on time with Greek mythological and philosophical perspectives;
• synchronistic parallels between the mythologies of the Roman god Pluto, discovering the planet Pluto and the element Plutonium;
• the simulation hypothesis through a mythological framework;
• and questioning how matter emerged into the universe, from where, and how the elementary grammar of our reality arranges itself into the language of the physical world.

By placing certain histories of science and technology in conversation with collective psychological, philosophical and mythological currents (both recent and historic), Deutsch's research reveals a new space in which an original scholarly, but playful, exchange between science and the humanities takes place.

Time, Myth and Matter covers the ideas and studies of world-renowned philosophers, scientists, and physicists such as Carl Jung, Marie Louise Von Franz, Carlo Rovelli, Nick Bostrom, James Hillman, Bernardo Kastrup, Ruth Kastner, Safron Rossi, Riswan Virk, Jacque Vallée, Jeffrey Kripal, Brian Greene, Hans-Peter Dürr, and Albert Einstein.
