Thirty years of oppressive spiritual cultivation at Apple

It's the weekend! What a perfect time to go inside the Church of Apple and the living word of Steve Jobs to learn how Apple uses its fortress of secrecy to build and maintain a religion, exploits brand trust to sell everyone Apple, and how Steve Jobs' legacy is not of creation, but of destruction.

Discover who I am, who Steve Jobs is, and how we collided at Apple long after he died as I traversed through a maze of clues he left behind.

Decide what it all means for yourself.

This is a 5-part short memoir. Each portion takes 20-30 minutes to read. Enjoy the Forbidden Fruit of my labor.

  1. Welcome to Apple
  2. A Fortress of Secrecy and Spirituality
  3. Pale Blue: Connecting dots to death in #AppleToo
  4. The ultimate sophistication of Thinking Different
  5. Out of the Bondi Blue, a Pink Pearl Apple emerges
