Ly Thi Thanh (b. 09 July 1985, Vietnam) is the primary writer of the "Chinese Branch" of Xianity.

Contribution to Eumetics

edit

Ly is an autodidact whose eclectic and esoteric philosophies helped formed the core of Eumetics. Ly referred to Eumetics as "a pattern language of philosophy", and emphasised morphic resonance as a key factor in the development (or "rediscovery") of so-called "theoric optima". Her involvement in Xianity is controversial: she has been accused of introducing aspects of mind-control into the canon, resulting in a distancing of the Eastern branch of the philosophy during the early twenteens, and Sarah Bennett implied in a 2020 interview that the philosophies of the villainous "Doctor M" in Bennett's Astrology was in part inspired by Ly.

"Pseudonym"

edit

Ly Thi Thanh's authorial "pseudonym" Co Thanh (the name by which she is known within Xianity) is merely the equivalent of "Miss Ly" in European tradition.

Bibliography

edit

Co Thanh has produced far more words in ephemeral, electronic form than she has ever had compiled and published as "books" or "papers". What follows is a partial list of her publications to January 2020.

Non-Fiction and Religious Writing

Fiction

edit
This curious work of metaphysical science fiction involves a technique known as time anchoring which allows an area of flat ground to remain connected with the present time of the anchoring ceremony, while the rest of the world moves on. Thus, persons entering the area will appear as glowing figures in the earlier time and be able to communicate with persons outside the area. The more information which flows back in time (no matter can enter the past by this technique), the weaker the anchor becomes, until such time as the connection breaks irretrievably.
Set in Gaza in 2015, Timestill has been called everything from "mathematically precise and scarily compelling" and "sublime and poetic" to "incoherent crypto-kabbalism" and "antisemitic occidentalism".
