If you want to dig into Chapman's thought more, the best place to start is probably this page and it's successor. That site is mainly interested in talking about meaning as a nebulous/patterned phenomenon, but those pages lay out his ideas on the two concepts.
If you want the pages where he writes specifically about Buddhism, take a look at vividness.live. Chapman was a member of the Aro gTer lineage of Tibetan Buddhism — a Dzogchen lineage rather than strictly Tantric but it includes Tantra.
There's also his unfinished web novel, Buddhism for Vampires and his extended commentary on rationality (and why rationalism isn't rational), In the Cells of the Eggplant, and his critiques of modern AI, bluntly named Better Without AI. (He's an atheist and tech-bro-adjacent, but he's a dissident voice in both circles.)
Changing gears, if you want to dig into the Hindu school of Advaita Vedanta — which is similar to Buddhism but concludes that the Self is very real and is in fact the only real thing — and you do video, I recommend Swami Sarvapriyananda's lectures on Dṛg Dṛśya Viveka and Aparokshanubhuti, the two main texts of Advaita Vedanta.
