if any one during the watching thought "aren't there 11 dimensions?" watch:

interesting!

things don't really have to be that complicated, i feel, but i did like the bit about the next 'dimension' up holding the key to infinite variability of possible/probable timelines and 'everything is' manifestation.

this reminds me of the work of ouspensky in which he made an early attempt to equate the limitations of a two dimensional plane with the intellectual capabilities of an animal such as a dog. three dimensional space with the intellectual capacity of a human, and so on, imagining that from the standpoint of a dog, a human has capabilities hinting of the miraculous!

here, a dog cannot conceptualize three spacial dimensions, according to ouspensky, and thinks of a tumbling dice as a strange 2 dimensional object which doesn't tumble, but changes its outline or shape. a barrel tumbling end over end changes from a circle to a rectangle and back again, with such a 3d concept of tumbling being beyond its normal ken of comprehension. how might fourth density manifestation be equally perplexing for the human mind to comprehend?

as for eleven dimensions - i prefer to use the term densities, as in the loo material. the connection here could be that if you look at the 7 densities as predicated by ra, we see the 8th repeating the first, as with the visible colour spectrum or the musical octave. as with the octave which represents the white keys/diatonic/doh - re - mi scale on a piano, one could conceivably surmise that the chromatic musical scale - which includes the black as well as the white keys - may represent not only the 11 steps with the 12th repeating the first, and nestled within the octave, but another way of viewing the octave of densities of universal experience.

i could be off base with this - can anyone envision 12 steps in the visible light spectrum? mark

wow. talk about synchronicity! i have pages upon pages of diagrams of the octave and how that whole process would work. some i drew up today. that is what i compared this to, too. like when we get over the 7 density it would be the same as getting over 10/11 dimension (whatever you wanna call it). actually, a density is the rate at which we are vibrating... and dimension would be the direction of force... because essentially there are only two aspects of the great whole: the vibration(heart beat, etc.) and the force (light/consciousnesses, etc.) thus our consciousness can extend through dimensions while our beat is vibration. dimension is a line, point to a point while the beat is originated in one point extending into infinity. pulse.

lee smolin is my favorite contemporary theoretical physicist, and i've got a gut feeling about this. do any of you more advanced physics members see any correlation here between this article and the dewey b. larson's reciprocal system of physical theory that david discusses?



a theory of reality beyond einstein's universe is taking shape – and a mysterious cosmic signal could soon fill in the blanks

it wasn't so long ago we thought space and time were the absolute and unchanging scaffolding of the universe. then along came albert einstein, who showed that different observers can disagree about the length of objects and the timing of events. his theory of relativity unified space and time into a single entity - space-time. it meant the way we thought about the fabric of reality would never be the same again. "henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade into mere shadows," declared mathematician hermann minkowski. "only a kind of union of the two will preserve an independent reality."

but did einstein's revolution go far enough? physicist lee smolin at the perimeter institute for theoretical physics in waterloo, ontario, canada, doesn't think so. he and a trio of colleagues are aiming to take relativity to a whole new level, and they have space-time in their sights. they say we need to forget about the home einstein invented for us: we live instead in a place called phase space.

if this radical claim is true, it could solve a troubling paradox about black holes that has stumped physicists for decades. what's more, it could set them on the path towards their heart's desire: a "theory of everything" that will finally unite general relativity and quantum mechanics.

october 8, 2011 - nobel prize for quasicrystals not supposed to exist.

the discovery of pentagonal symmetry in crystals - even though rejected for decades - has “fundamentally altered how chemists conceive of solid matter.”

$1.5 million 2011 nobel prize in chemistry

dan shechtman, ph.d., technion-israel institute of technology in haifa, israel, has received the 2011 nobel prize in chemistry after three decades of ridicule by his science peers. “i was thrown out of my research group ( in 1982). they said i brought shame on them with what i was saying (about discovering quasicrystals). i never took it personally. i knew i was right and they were wrong.” since prof. shechtman's 1982 discovery, quasicrystals have been produced in laboratories and a swedish company found them in one of the most durable kinds of steel, which is now used in products such as razor blades and thin needles made specifically for eye surgery. quasicrystals are also being studied for use in new materials that convert heat to electricity.

when i read this, this is what i pictured with each color being a note mixing into the next.

can anyone more advanced in physics than me (that wouldn't be hard) explain this patent to me? sounds like a
cold-fusion sort of device?

magnetic vortex - experimental proof

the video linked here shows experimental proof of the existence of a magnetic vortex. the direction of rotation changes when magnetic polarity is reversed.

usually, we see magnetic field lines shown as bending straight back from one end of the magnet to the other. correctly, what should be shown is magnetic lines of force in a vortex configuration, with flow spiraling into the magnet (or out of it) in a right-hand or left-hand turning motion, depending on the magnetic polarity.

it appears to me that the separation of magnetic poles, and the tension that is created by this stable distancing of two opposing poles, creates rotation which, incidentally, is the seed of all matter.

the work was done by pedro alexandre lino silva, a portuguese free energy researcher. his site is http://linoavac.no.sapo.pt/

Not sure if this the forum to post.

I know most of us already knew it exist but looks like there is finally a scientific proof for the god particle. (or Higgs Boson)

I heard CNN talking about the discovery of the Higgs Boson A.K.A the god particle so i hopped online to learn more. http://www.cnn.com/2012/07/04/tech/p...higgs-particle
