What is Fundamental?
We have many different ways to talk about the things in the physical universe. Some of those ways we think of as more fundamental, and some as “emergent” or “effective”. But what does it mean to be more or less … Continue reading
Third Quasicrystal Found
By Paul J. Steinhardt et al. – http://www.nature.com/srep/2015/150313/srep09111/full/srep09111.html, CC BY 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=40522020 Quasicrystals1,2, short for quasiperiodic crystals, are solids able to violate the conventional rules of crystallography because their structure is “quasiperiodic” rather than periodic; that is, their atomic density … Continue reading
An Argument Against the Platonic World
Pierre Curie (1894): “Asymmetry is what creates a phenomenon.” Against symmetry, is what constitutes time as a measure. So there is this argument in there too.:) My aim in this essay is to propose a conception of mathematics that is … Continue reading
Are you a Platonist?
Kant, however, is correct in that we inevitably try and conceive of transcendent, which means unconditioned, objects. This generates “dialectical illusion” in the Antinomies of reason. Kant thought that some Antinomies could be resolved as “postulates of practical reason” (God, … Continue reading
The Architecture of Matter?
Buckminsterfullerene-perspective-3D-balls I cannot say for certain and I speculate. Bucky balls then bring to mind this architectural structure? Let me give you an example of a recent discovery. I have to wonder if Bucky was a Platonist at heart……with grand … Continue reading
The Journey For Natural Quasicrystals
“From future structural and kinematical studies of known quasicrystals, such as AlNiCo, these principles may be established providing a new understanding of and new control over the formation and structure of quasicrystals. See: A New Paradigm for the Structure of … Continue reading
Unus Mundus-One World
Unus mundus, Latin for “one world”, is the concept of an underlying unified reality from which everything emerges and to which everything returns.The idea was popularized in the 20th century by the Swiss psychoanalyst Carl Jung, though the term can … Continue reading

Flatland in Expression?
Professor Konstantin Novoselov talks about his Nobel Prize winning discovery graphene, and what the future holds for it in the 2012 Kohn Award Lecture SEE: Graphene: materials in the flatland See Also: 2012 : WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE DEEP, ELEGANT, … Continue reading
Two Paul Steinhardt Projects: "Cyclic Universe" and "Quasicrystals"
Two Paul Steinhardt Projects: “Cyclic Universe” and “Quasicrystals” Paul Steinhardt Albert Einstein Professor in Science, Departments of Physics and Astrophysical… Quasi-elegance….As a young student first reading Weyl’s book, crystallography seemed like the “ideal” of what one should be aiming for … Continue reading
Process Fractal vs Geometry Fractals
Let proportion be found not only in numbers, but also in sounds, weights, times and positions, and whatever force there is.Leonardo Da Vinci The Mandelbrot set, seen here in an image generated by NOVA, epitomizes the fractal. Photo credit: © … Continue reading
