Unveiling the Unbound Agnostic (Do We Create, Discover, or Both?)
Do we create our world, or merely uncover its hidden truths? Is art an act of invention or revelation? In this daring exploration of human consciousness, August Mariner weaves together philosophy, art, and science, questioning whether genius crafts or discovers—and what this means for free will.
From the primal riots of Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring to Bach’s divine ratios, Mariner navigates the fragile boundaries between perception, myth, and reason, asking whether our ideas are forged by will or stumbled upon through fate.
Blending sharp logic with poetic cadence, Unveiling the Unbound Agnostic is not a sermon, but an invitation to reconsider the myths we inherit, the truths we craft, and the illusions we embrace.
Perfect for thinkers who crave a journey beyond the ordinary, this book challenges you to confront your biases, defy conformity, and roll your own boulder up the hill of truth.

About the Author: Born in Ohio, August embarked on his journey of self-discovery by joining the United States Air Force as an Aerospace Ground Equipment (A.G.E.) mechanic immediately after high school—an experience he regards as an honor and a privilege. However, rather than defining him, it illuminated who he was not, sparking a lifelong pursuit of identity and intellectual exploration.
His academic path led him through Missouri State University, the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, and Louisiana State University at Shreveport, where he earned degrees at various levels, each expanding his perspective and interdisciplinary expertise. August’s diverse talents bridge the practical and the philosophical: a skilled mechanic, carpenter, design engineer, artist, and elementary school educator. Yet at his core, he is a philosopher and poet, deeply influenced by Greek thinkers, Camus, Jung, Erich Neumann, and Nietzsche. His poetry—raw, evocative, and unapologetically authentic—examines love, loss, and the contradictions of human nature, rejecting dogma in pursuit of truth.
A solitary thinker, August thrives in quiet contemplation, yet he equally relishes an impassioned, data-driven philosophical debate. Now residing in Louisiana, he continues to refine his craft, weaving together creativity, inquiry, and an ever-evolving search for meaning.
