Emergence: A Point in Spacetime

Posted on July 28, 2006 by PlatoHagel

We used to think that if we knew one, we knew two, because one and one are two. We are finding out that we must learn a great deal more about ‘and’.” – Sir Arthur Eddington (1882-1944) Foundational perspectives are … Continue reading →

Gold and Fool’s Gold

Posted on July 20, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Gold Perhaps the highest density known is reached in neutron star matter (see neutronium). The singularity at the centre of a black hole, according to general relativity, does not have any volume, so its density is undefined. The most dense … Continue reading →

Dimensional Referencing

Posted on July 1, 2006 by PlatoHagel

While the basis of the cosmic string lying in ruins in terms of verification that others went after, it does noes not in anyway reduce the impoirtance of how Andrey Kravtsov’s animation can be less in our assumption of the … Continue reading →

Supersymmetry<->Simplistically<-> Entropically Designed?

Posted on June 7, 2006 by PlatoHagel

So of course I am troubled by my inexperience, as well as, the interests of what could have been produced in the “new computers” of the future? So in some weird sense how would you wrap the dynamics of what … Continue reading →

Pattern Recognition

Posted on May 22, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Strominger: That was the problem we had to solve. In order to count microstates, you need a microscopic theory. Boltzmann had one–the theory of molecules. We needed a microscopic theory for black holes that had to have three characteristics: One, … Continue reading →

Is the door open to the eruption of the sociology of knowledge?

Posted on May 1, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Nobody really thinks about the subtle perceptions that can make their way into the scientist’s mind? Do they? While, I had talked about the quiet places we like to go to find that peace of mind, it might be different … Continue reading →

Quantum Mechanics: Determinism at Planck Scale

Posted on April 6, 2006 by PlatoHagel

Perhaps Quantum Gravity can be Handled by thoroughly reconsidering Quantum Mechanics itself?– Gerard t’ Hooft Albert Einstein used harmonic oscillators to understand specific heats of solids and found that energy levels are quantized. This formed one of the key bridges … Continue reading →

"Wholeness and Creativity" under the Guise of Synesthesia

Posted on March 19, 2006 by PlatoHagel

It is not without some understanding, that models can influence how the rest of the mind might seek to unify such concepts. Is there some spiritual sigificance to it? In Wassily Kandinsky’s mind there might be, yet some woud argue, … Continue reading →

Intersection of D Branes

Posted on February 14, 2006 by PlatoHagel

I’m not going to try and kid you with “this stuff,” as it is extremely beyond anything that any of us mere mortal can understand. So, if such a thought would be to simplify, then how would such thinking be … Continue reading →
