Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo (July 23, 1964 - )

Fenyo is hard to classify, but he has heard others say that his ideas are a mix of aspects of Relativism, Empiricism, Ethical Absolutism, and Rationalism, with some aspects of Pantheism in his Metaphysical ideas. He is neither an Atheist nor a Dogmatist and has labeled himself as a Infinite Dualistic Realist.

Fenyo's "The Most Important Thought" (based on an earlier copyrighted work titled "Infinitism: Secret Key to the Doors of Wisdom", Silver Line Books, 1994), concerns the practical intellectual and socio-psychological benefits of contemplating the infinite.

During the 1980s he lived in New York City, mostly in Greenwich Village, where he became a contemporary of avant-garde artists and intellectuals, including Quentin Crisp, Andy Warhol, and Jean Michel Basquiat. He wrote poetry and short fiction as well as invented a form of painting called Oboidism, the result of ink-laden bubbles on watercolor and magazine paper.

Among those philosophers and intellectuals that have influenced his ideas are Spinoza, Jean Jacques Rousseau, Thomas Jefferson, Giordano Bruno, Mohandas Gandhi], and Albert Einstein.

Fenyo, dubbed "the original New York City Free Advice Man," currently lives in London.
