0:08 - 0:12The following documentory presents new developments in Neuroscience
-
0:12 - 0:18and a solution to the many current unsolved problems in physics.
-
0:18 - 0:21While it keeps clear of metaphysical correlations
-
0:21 - 0:25and is solely focused on scientificaly verifiable data,
-
0:25 - 0:33it also has philosophical reprecassions pertaining to life, death and the origin of the universe.
-
0:33 - 0:37Due to it’s many layers and density in presentation,
-
0:37 - 0:41it may require multiple viewings to fully comprehend its implications,
-
0:41 - 0:44even though considerable effort has been made,
-
0:44 - 0:49to simplify the complex scientific concepts that are discussed.

1:19 - 1:21Cápitulo 1
-
1:21 - 1:24Dios está en las neuronas
-
1:30 - 1:36El cerebro humano es una red de aproximadamente cien mil millones de neuronas.
-
1:36 - 1:40Diferentes experiencias crean diferentes conexiones neuronales
-
1:40 - 1:43que produce diferentes emociones
-
1:43 - 1:45Y dependiendo de cuales neuronas son estimuladas
-
1:45 - 1:48ciertas conexiones se hacen más fuertes y más eficientes
-
1:48 - 1:51mientras que otras pueden vuelven más débiles.
-
1:51 - 1:54Esto es lo que se llama plasticidad neural.
-
1:54 - 1:56Alguien que entrena para ser un músico
-
1:56 - 1:58will create stronger neural connections that link
-
1:58 - 2:03the two hemispheres of the brain in order to be musically creative.
-
2:03 - 2:09Virtually any sort of talent or skill can be created through training.
-
2:09 - 2:12Rudiger Gamm, who was a self-admitted ’hopeless student’,
-
2:12 - 2:16used to fail at basic maths and went on to train his abilities
-
2:16 - 2:18and became a famous ’human calculator’
-
2:18 - 2:23capable of performing extremely complex mathematics.
-
2:24 - 2:27Rationality and emotional resilience work the same way.
-
2:27 - 2:31These are neural connections that can be strengthened.
-
2:31 - 2:38Whatever you are doing at any time, you are physically modifying your brain to become better at it.
-
2:38 - 2:42Since this is such a foundational mechanism of the brain,
-
2:42 - 2:47being self-aware can greatly enrich our life experience.
-
2:51 - 2:56Part 1: Social Neuroscience
-
2:58 - 3:02Specific neurons and neurotransmitters, such as norepinephrine,
-
3:02 - 3:10trigger a defensive state when we feel that our thoughts have to be protected from the influence of others.
-
3:10 - 3:13If we are then confronted with with differences in opinion,
-
3:13 - 3:17the chemicals that are released in the brain are the same ones
-
3:17 - 3:22that try to ensure our survival in dangerous situations.
-
3:23 - 3:24In this defensive state,
-
3:24 - 3:29the more primitive part of the brain interferes with rational thinking
-
3:29 - 3:33and the limbic system can knock out most of our working memory,
-
3:33 - 3:36physically causing ’narrow-mindedness’.
-
3:36 - 3:41We see this in the politics of fear, in the strategy of poker players
-
3:41 - 3:46or simply when someone is stubborn in a discussion.
-
3:46 - 3:48No matter how valuable an idea is,
-
3:48 - 3:54the brain has trouble processing it when it is in such a state.
-
3:54 - 3:58On a neural level, it reacts as if we’re being threatened,
-
3:58 - 4:01even if this threat come from harmless opinions or facts
-
4:01 - 4:07that we may otherwise find helpful and could rationally agree with.
-
4:18 - 4:22But when we express ourselves and our views are appreciated,
-
4:22 - 4:26these ’defence chemicals’ decrease in the brain
-
4:26 - 4:30and dopamine neurotransmission activates the reward neurons,
-
4:30 - 4:34making us feel empowered and increasing our self-esteem.
-
4:34 - 4:38Our beliefs have a profound impact on our body chemistry,
-
4:38 - 4:42this is why placebos can be so effective.
-
4:42 - 4:47Self-esteem or self-belief is closely linked to the neurotransmitter serotonin.
-
4:47 - 4:50When the lack of it takes on severe proportions,
-
4:50 - 4:57it often leads to depression, self-destructive behavior or even suicide.
-
4:57 - 5:03Social validation increases the levels of dopamin and serotonin in the brain
-
5:03 - 5:10and allows us to let go of emotional fixations and become self-aware more easily.
-
5:18 - 5:21Part 2
-
5:21 - 5:24Part 2: Mirror Neurons & Consciousness
-
5:25 - 5:30Social psychology often looks at the basic human need to fit in
-
5:30 - 5:34and calls this the normative social influence.
-
5:34 - 5:41When we grow up our moral and ethical compass is almost entirely forged by our environment.
-
5:41 - 5:49So our actions are often a result of the validation we get from society.
-
5:49 - 5:51But new developments in neuro-science
-
5:51 - 5:57are giving us a better understanding of culture and identity.
-
5:57 - 6:03Recent neurological research has confirmed the existance of empathetic mirror neurons.
-
6:03 - 6:08When we experience an emotion or perform an action, specific neurons fire.
-
6:08 - 6:13But when we observe someone else performing this action, or when we imagine it,
-
6:13 - 6:20many of the same neurons will fire again, as if we were performing the action ourselves.
-
6:20 - 6:27These empathy neurons connect us to other people allowing us to feel what others feel.
-
6:27 - 6:30And since these neurons respond to our imagination,
-
6:30 - 6:35we can experience emotional feedback as if it came from someone else.
-
6:35 - 6:40This system is what allows us to self-reflect.
-
6:42 - 6:46The mirror neuron does not know the difference between it and others
-
6:46 - 6:52and is the reason why we are so dependant on social validation and why we want to fit in.
-
6:52 - 7:00We are in a constant duality between how we see ourselves and how others see us.
-
7:00 - 7:04This can result int confusion in terms of identity and self-esteem.
-
7:04 - 7:08And brain scans show that we experience these negative emotions
-
7:08 - 7:11even before we are aware of them.
-
7:14 - 7:18But when we are self-aware, we can alter misplaced emotions,
-
7:18 - 7:22because we control the thoughts that cause them.
-
7:22 - 7:27This is a neural chemical consequence of how memories become labile when retrieved
-
7:27 - 7:31and how they are restored through protein synthesis.
-
7:31 - 7:36Self-observing profoundly changes the way our brain works.
-
7:36 - 7:39It activates the self-regulating neo-cortical regions
-
7:39 - 7:45which give us an incredible amount of control over our feelings.
-
7:45 - 7:51Every time we do this, our rationality and emotional resilience are strenghened.
-
7:51 - 7:57When we are not being self-aware, most of our thoughts and actions are impulsive
-
7:57 - 8:04and the idea that we are randomly reacting and not making concious choices is instinctively frustrating.
-
8:04 - 8:08The brain resolves this by creating explanations for our behavior
-
8:08 - 8:13and physically rewriting it into our memories, through memory reconsolidation
-
8:13 - 8:17making us believe, that we were in control of our actions.
-
8:17 - 8:21This is also called backward-rationalization
-
8:21 - 8:28and it can leave most of our negative emotions unresolved and ready to be triggered at any time.
-
8:28 - 8:31They become a constant fuel to our confusion as our brain
-
8:31 - 8:37will keep trying to justify why we behaved irrationally.
-
8:41 - 8:45All this complex and almost schizophrenic subconscious behaviour
-
8:45 - 8:50is the result of a vastly parallel distributed system in our brain.
-
8:50 - 8:54There is no specific center of consciousness.
-
8:54 - 9:00The appearance of a unity is in fact each of these separate circuits being enabled and being expressed
-
9:00 - 9:03at one particular moment in time.
-
9:03 - 9:08Our experiences are constantly changing our neural connections,
-
9:08 - 9:12physically altering the parallel system that is our consciousness.
-
9:12 - 9:18Direct modifications to this can have surreal consequences that bring into question
-
9:18 - 9:22what and where consciousness really is.
-
9:24 - 9:28If your left cerebral hemisphere were to be disconnected form the right,
-
9:28 - 9:31as is the case in split-brain patients,
-
9:31 - 9:35you would normally still be able to talk and think from the left hemisphere,
-
9:35 - 9:40while your right hemisphere would have very limited cognitive capacities.
-
9:40 - 9:43Your left brain will not miss the right part,
-
9:43 - 9:47even though this profoundly changes your perception.
-
9:47 - 9:54One consequence of this is that you can no longer describe the right half of someones face.
-
9:54 - 9:58But you will never mention it, you will never see it as a problem,
-
9:58 - 10:03or even realise that something has changed.
-
10:03 - 10:07Since this affects more than just your perception of the real world,
-
10:07 - 10:12and also applies to your mental images, it is not just a sensory-problem,
-
10:12 - 10:17but a fundamental change in your consciousness.
-
10:25 - 10:29Part 3
-
10:29 - 10:32Part 3: God Is In The Neurons
-
10:32 - 10:35Each neuron has a voltage
-
10:35 - 10:39which can change when ions flow in or out of the cell.
-
10:39 - 10:42Once a neuron voltage has reached a certain level,
-
10:42 - 10:45it will fire an electrical signal to other cells,
-
10:45 - 10:47which will repeat the process.
-
10:47 - 10:51When many neurons fire at the same time, we can measure
-
10:51 - 10:54these changes in the form of the wave.
-
10:54 - 10:58Brainwaves underpin almost everything going on in our minds,
-
10:58 - 11:02including memory attention and even intelligence.
-
11:02 - 11:10As they oscillate on different frequencies they get classified in bands such as alpha, beta and gamma.
-
11:10 - 11:13Each are associated with different task.
-
11:13 - 11:18Brainwaves allow braincells to tune in to the frequency corresponding
-
11:18 - 11:22to their particular task, while ignoring irrelevant signals,
-
11:22 - 11:27similar to how radio homes in different waves to pick up radio stations.
-
11:27 - 11:31The transfer of information between neurons becomes optimal
-
11:31 - 11:34when their activity is synchronized.
-
11:34 - 11:38This is the same reason why we experience cognitive dissonance,
-
11:38 - 11:44the frustration caused by simultaneously holding in contradictory ideas.
-
11:47 - 11:54Will is merely the drive to reduce dissonance between each of our neural circuits.
-
11:56 - 11:59Evolution can be seen as the same process,
-
11:59 - 12:03where nature tries to adapt, or 'resonate' with its environment.
-
12:03 - 12:07By doing so, it evolves to the point where it becomes self-aware
-
12:07 - 12:11and begin to ponder its own existence.
-
12:11 - 12:15When person faces a paradox or wanting purpose
-
12:15 - 12:18while thinking that human existence is meaningless,
-
12:18 - 12:21cognitive dissonance occurs.
-
12:21 - 12:25Throughout history, this has led many to reach for spiritual and religious guidance,
-
12:25 - 12:36challenging science, as it failed to give answers existential questions, such as: "Why or what am I?"
-
12:44 - 12:47Part 4
-
12:47 - 12:50Part 4: I am Athene
-
12:50 - 12:59"The mirror neuron does not know the difference between it and others".
-
13:07 - 13:13The left cerebral hemisphere is largely responsible for creating a coherent belief system,
-
13:13 - 13:19in order to maintain a sense of continuity towards our lives.
-
13:19 - 13:24New experiences get folded into the pre-existing belief system.
-
13:24 - 13:29When they don't fit, they are simply denied.
-
13:29 - 13:35Counter-balancing this is the right cerebral hemisphere, which has the opposite tendency.
-
13:35 - 13:39Whereas the left hemisphere tries to preserve the model,
-
13:39 - 13:44the right hemisphere is constantly challenging the status quo.
-
13:44 - 13:47When the discrepant anomalies become too large,
-
13:47 - 13:51the right hemisphere forces a revision in our world view.
-
13:51 - 13:54However, when our beliefs are too strong,
-
13:54 - 14:00the right hemisphere may not succeed in overriding our denial.
-
14:04 - 14:09This can create a profound confusion when mirroring others.
-
14:09 - 14:12When the neural connections that physically define our belief system
-
14:12 - 14:18are not strongly developed or active, then our consciousness, the unity of all the separate
-
14:18 - 14:25active circuits at that moment, may consist mainly of activity relates to our mirror neurons.
-
14:25 - 14:27Just as when we experience hunger,
-
14:27 - 14:34our consciousness consists mostly of other neural interactions for consuming food.
-
14:34 - 14:41This is not the result of some core “self” giving commands to different cerebral areas.
-
14:41 - 14:50All the different parts of the brain become active and inactive and interact without a core.
-
14:50 - 14:56Just as the pixels on a screen can express themselves as a recognizible image when in unity,
-
14:56 - 15:02the convergence of neural interaction expresses itself as consciousness.
-
15:02 - 15:06At every moment we are, in fact, a different image.
-
15:06 - 15:12A different entity when mirroring, when hungry, when watching this video.
-
15:12 - 15:18Every second we become different persons as we go through different states.
-
15:18 - 15:24When we use our mirror neurons to look at ourselves, we may construct the idea of identity.
-
15:24 - 15:32But if we do this with our scientific understandings, we see something completely different.
-
15:32 - 15:39The neural synergies that produce our oscillating consciousness go far beyond our own neurons.
-
15:39 - 15:44We are equally the result of cerebral hemispheres interacting electrochemically,
-
15:44 - 15:50as we are of the senses connecting our neurons to other neurons in our environment.
-
15:50 - 15:56Nothing is external. This is not a hypothetical philosophy,
-
15:56 - 15:58it is the basic property of mirror neurons,
-
15:58 - 16:03which allow us to understand outselves through others.
-
16:03 - 16:07Seeing this neural activity as your own, while excluding the environment,
-
16:07 - 16:10would be a misconception.
-
16:13 - 16:18Our superorganismal features are also reflected in evolution,
-
16:18 - 16:23where our survival as primates relied on our collective abilities.
-
16:23 - 16:29Over time, the neocortical regions evolved to permit the modulation of primitive instincts
-
16:29 - 16:36and the overriding of hedonistic impulses for the benefit of the group.
-
16:36 - 16:42Our selfish genes have come to promote reciprocal social behaviors in superorganismal structures,
-
16:42 - 16:48effectively discarding the notion of "survival of the fittest".
-
16:48 - 16:53The brain`s neural activity resonates most coherently when there is no dissonance between
-
16:53 - 16:59these advanced new cerebral regions and the older more primitive ones.
-
16:59 - 17:04What we traditionally call “selfish tendencies” is only a narrow interpretation of
-
17:04 - 17:08what self-serving behavior entrails, wherein human characteristics are
-
17:08 - 17:16perceived through the flawed paradigm of identity… instead of through a scientific view on what we are:
-
17:16 - 17:23a momentaly expression of an ever-changing unity with no center.
-
17:23 - 17:28The psychological consequences of this as an objective belief system allow
-
17:28 - 17:31self-awareness without attachment to the imagined self,
-
17:31 - 17:36causing dramatic increases in mental clarity, social conscience,
-
17:36 - 17:43self-regulation and what`s often described as 'being in the moment'.
-
17:52 - 17:56The common cultural belief has mostly been that we need a narrative,
-
17:56 - 18:01a diachronic view on our life, to establish moral values.
-
18:01 - 18:06But with our current understandings of the empathic and social nature of the brain,
-
18:06 - 18:11we now know that scientific view, with no attachment to our identity or “story”,
-
18:11 - 18:19yields a far more accurate, meaningful and ethical paradigm than our anecdotal values.
-
18:22 - 18:26This is logical, since our traditional tendency to define ourselves
-
18:26 - 18:30as imaginary individualistic constants neurally wires
-
18:30 - 18:34and designs the brain towards dysfunctional cognitive processes,
-
18:34 - 18:42such as compulsive labeling and the psychological need to impose expectations.
-
18:46 - 18:51Practical labeling underpins all forms of interactions in our daily lives.
-
18:51 - 18:57But by psychologically labeling the self as internal and the environment as external,
-
18:57 - 19:06we constrain our own neurochemical processes and experience a deluded disconnection.
-
19:11 - 19:16Growth and its evolutionary side-effects, such as happiness and fulfilment,
-
19:16 - 19:21are stimulated when we are not being labeled in our interactions.
-
19:21 - 19:27We may have many different views and disagree with one another in practical terms,
-
19:27 - 19:31but interactions that nevertheless accept us for who we are,
-
19:31 - 19:35without judgment, are neuropsychological catalysts that wire
-
19:35 - 19:44the human brain to acknowledge others and accept rationally verified belief systems without dissonance.
-
19:44 - 19:50Stimulating this type of neural activity and interaction alleviates the need for distraction
-
19:50 - 19:57or entertainment and creates cycles of constructive behavior in our environment.
-
19:57 - 20:02Sociologists have established that phenomena such as obesity and smoking,
-
20:02 - 20:07emotions and ideas, spread and ripple through society in much the same way
-
20:07 - 20:15that electric signals of neurons are transferred when their activity is synchronized.
-
20:20 - 20:24We are a global network of neurochemical reactions.
-
20:24 - 20:28And the self-amplifying cycle of acceptance and acknowledgment,
-
20:28 - 20:32sustained by the daily choices in our interactions,
-
20:32 - 20:36is the chain-reaction that will ultimatly define our collective ability
-
20:36 - 20:45to overcome imagined differences and look at life in the grand scheme of things.

The Grand Scheme of Things -
21:12 - 21:14based on research by Athene
-
21:14 - 21:17edited and narrated by Reese015
-
21:17 - 21:23music by Professor Kliq
-
21:26 - 21:29Throughout Chiren's ongoing research, I have made a simplified
-
21:29 - 21:33but comprehensive overview of his current findings.
-
21:33 - 21:41This is my interpretation of the first few months of his work of unifying quantum physics and relativity.
-
21:41 - 21:46While it may, at times be difficult to follow due to the subject matter's complexity,
-
21:46 - 21:53it also has some philosophical implications, which are addressed in the epilogue.
-
21:53 - 21:57Over the past century, many groundbreaking discoveries have led to
-
21:57 - 22:01scientific paradigm shifts in our understanding of the world.
-
22:01 - 22:07Einstein's theory of relativity revealed how time and space are the same fabric,
-
22:07 - 22:10while Niels Bohr's research helped us understand
-
22:10 - 22:13the building blocks of matter trough quantum physics,
-
22:13 - 22:18a realm that only exists as "an abstract physical description".
-
22:18 - 22:22Afterwards Lui De Broglie discovered all matter,
-
22:22 - 22:29and not just photons or electrons has quantized wave/particle-duality.
-
22:29 - 22:33These breakthroughs have led to new schools of thought about the nature of reality
-
22:33 - 22:38and inspired popular metaphysical and pseudoscientific theories,
-
22:38 - 22:45such as the human mind being able to command the universe through positive thinking.
-
22:45 - 22:53However attractive, these theories have no verifiable evidence and can slow down scientific progress.
-
22:58 - 23:04Einstein's law of special and general relativity applied in modern day technologies,
-
23:04 - 23:10such as GPS satellites, where the accuracy of calculations would drift more than 7 miles per day
-
23:10 - 23:16if consequences such as time dilation would not be taken into account.
-
23:16 - 23:22Time dilation is best illustrated by how moving clocks run slower.
-
23:22 - 23:24Other implications of relativity are:
-
23:24 - 23:32length contraction, meaning that object in motion decrease in length and the relativity of simultaneity,
-
23:32 - 23:36it is impossible to say in an absolute sense,
-
23:36 - 23:43whether to events occur at the same time when they are separated in space.
-
23:43 - 23:46Nothing can travel faster than the speed of light.
-
23:46 - 23:51This means that is a bar of ten light-seconds long would be pushed forward,
-
23:51 - 23:57it would take ten second before the action can take place on the other side.
-
23:57 - 24:04Without this time interval of ten seconds, the bar does not exist in its entirety.
-
24:04 - 24:12This is not due to our limitations as observers, but due to an inherent consequence of relativity,
-
24:12 - 24:19where time and space are interconnected and can not exists without each other.
-
24:22 - 24:27Quantum physics provides a mathematical description of much of the wave/particle-duality
-
24:27 - 24:31and interactions of energy and matter.
-
24:31 - 24:38It departs from classical physics, primarily at the atomic and sub-atomic scales.
-
24:38 - 24:44The mathematical formulations are abstract and the implications are often non-intuitive.
-
24:44 - 24:51A quantum is the minimum unit of any physical entity involved in an interaction.
-
24:51 - 24:55The elementary particles are the basic building blocks of the universe.
-
24:55 - 25:00They are the particles which all other particles are made of.
-
25:00 - 25:04While, in classical physics we can always split things into smaller bits,
-
25:04 - 25:11for a quanta this is impossible. As a result, the quantum world presents many unique phenomena
-
25:11 - 25:14that can not be explained through classical laws,
-
25:14 - 25:22such as quantum entanglement, the photoelectric effect. Compton scattering and many more.
-
25:22 - 25:27There are many exotic interpretations of our quantized world.
-
25:27 - 25:31The most widely accepted among physicists include the Copenhagen interpretation
-
25:31 - 25:34and the many-worlds interpretation.
-
25:34 - 25:38Current trends show substantial competition from alternative interpretations,
-
25:38 - 25:42such as the holographic universe.
-
25:50 - 25:52Part 1
-
25:52 - 25:57Part 1: De Broglie's Equations
-
25:57 - 26:02While both quantum physics and Einstein's laws of relativity are essential to
-
26:02 - 26:05our scientific understandings of the universe,
-
26:05 - 26:11there are many unresolved scientific problems and, thus far, no unifying theory.
-
26:11 - 26:13Some of the current questions are:
-
26:13 - 26:17- Why is there more observable matter than antimatter in the universe?
-
26:17 - 26:20- What is the nature of the arrow of time?
-
26:20 - 26:23- What is the origin of mass?
-
26:23 - 26:29One of the most important keys to finding the answer to these problems are De Broglie's equations,
-
26:29 - 26:34for which he was awarded the Noble Prize in physics.
-
26:34 - 26:38This formula shows how all matter has a wave/particle-duality,
-
26:38 - 26:42meaning that there are moments in which it behaves as a wave
-
26:42 - 26:45and others where it behaves as a particle.
-
26:45 - 26:49The formula combines Einstein's famous E=mc^2 (c squared) equation
-
26:49 - 26:53with the quantized nature of energy.
-
26:53 - 26:56Experimental evidence includes the interference pattern
-
26:56 - 27:01of C60 fullerene molecules in a double-slit experiment.
-
27:04 - 27:09The fact that our consciousness itself seems to be made up out of quantized particles
-
27:09 - 27:13has been the subject of many mystical theories.
-
27:13 - 27:18And while the relation between quantum mechanics and consciousness is unlikely to be as magical
-
27:18 - 27:27as recent esoteric movies and literature claim, there is nevertheless a profound implication.
-
27:35 - 27:43As De Broglie's equations apply to all matter, we can fundamentally establish that C equals hf,
-
27:43 - 27:49where C stands for consciousness, h for the constant of planck and f for frequency.
-
27:49 - 27:53C is responsible for what we experience as the now,
-
27:53 - 27:58a quantized or minimum unit of and interaction.
-
27:58 - 28:04The sum of all moments C uptil the current moment is what shapes concept of life.
-
28:04 - 28:07This is not a philosophical or theoretical statement
-
28:07 - 28:13but an inherent consequence of all matter and energy being quantized.
-
28:13 - 28:21The formula shows how life and death are abstract constructions of C(now).
-
28:21 - 28:28Another conseqeunce of De Broglie's equations is that the rate at which matter or energy fluctuates
-
28:28 - 28:36and acts like a wave or a particle is relative to the frequency of the frame of reference.
-
28:36 - 28:40Increases in frequency due to velocity are relative to others
-
28:40 - 28:44and bring about phenomena such as time dilation.
-
28:44 - 28:50The underlying reason is the uneffected experience of time relative to the reference frame
-
28:50 - 28:57where space and time are properties of quanta and not the other way around.
-
29:04 - 29:05Part 2
-
29:05 - 29:11Part 2:
Antimatter and Unperturbed Time -
29:11 - 29:17Large Hadron Collider (Switzerland)
-
29:20 - 29:28Antiparticles are created everywhere in the universe where high-energy particle collisions take place.
-
29:28 - 29:33This process is artifically simulated in particle accelerators.
-
29:33 - 29:38When matter is created, antimatter is created simultaneously,
-
29:38 - 29:46hence why the lack of antimatter is one of the biggest unsolved questions in physics to date.
-
29:46 - 29:52When we trap antiparticles through electromagnetic fields, we can study their properties.
-
29:52 - 29:57The quantum state of particles and antiparticles can be interchanged by applying
-
29:57 - 30:02the charge conjugation [C], parity [P], and time reversal [T] operators.
-
30:02 - 30:03To clarify:
-
30:03 - 30:08If a physicist whose body was made of antimatter, would do experiments in a laboratory
-
30:08 - 30:13also made of antimatter, using chemicals and substances made of antiparticles,
-
30:13 - 30:19he would find almost exactly the same results as his matter counterpart.
-
30:19 - 30:25But when they would merge, immense energy would be released proportional to their mass.
-
30:25 - 30:30Very recently, Fermilab discovered how quanta such as mesons are switching
-
30:30 - 30:363 trillion times per second from matter to antimatter.
-
30:36 - 30:40When we study the universe from a quantized frame of reference C,
-
30:40 - 30:46we have to take into account all experimental evidence that applies to quanta.
-
30:46 - 30:52This includes how matter and antimatter are created simultanously in particle accelerators
-
30:52 - 30:57and how mesons switch back and forth between one and the other.
-
30:57 - 31:02This has significant consequences when applied to C.
-
31:02 - 31:07From a quantum perspective, every instance of C has an anti-C.
-
31:07 - 31:10This explains the missing symmetry or antimatter in the universe
-
31:10 - 31:15and is closely related to the arbitrary choice of emitter and absorber
-
31:15 - 31:19in the Wheeler-Feynman Time-Symmetric Theory.
-
31:19 - 31:27The unpertubed time t in the uncertainty principle is the required time or cycle for quanta to exist.
-
31:27 - 31:34Similar as observerved in mesons, our personal experience of time or interval of the current moment
-
31:34 - 31:40reaches its threshold when C is canceled out by its anti-C.
-
31:40 - 31:48C's interpretation of this single self-annihilating moment is framed within an abstract arrow of time.
-
31:48 - 31:55If we then want to define interaction and look at the basic properties of the wave/particle-duality of quanta
-
31:55 - 32:00all interactions would consist of interference and resonance.
-
32:00 - 32:03But since this isn't enough to explain the fundamental forces,
-
32:03 - 32:06we're required to use different models.
-
32:06 - 32:11This includes the standard model which mediates the dynamics of the known subatomic particles
-
32:11 - 32:17through forcecarriers and Einstein's general relativity which describes macroscopic phenomena
-
32:17 - 32:25such as the orbits of planets which follow a curvature or ellipse in space and helix in spacetime.
-
32:25 - 32:29But Einstein's model of spacetime doesn't hold up on quantum levels
-
32:29 - 32:35and the standard model needs additional fore carriers to explain the origin of mass.
-
32:35 - 32:38Without success, a unification of both models
-
32:38 - 32:44or theory of everything has been subjec of much research.
-
32:46 - 32:48Part 3
-
32:48 - 32:59Part 3: Theory of Everything
-
32:59 - 33:02Quantum mechanics is merely mathematical descriptions
-
33:02 - 33:07and their practical implications are often counter-intuitive.
-
33:07 - 33:10Classical concepts such as length, time, mass and energy
-
33:10 - 33:14can also be approached with similar descriptions.
-
33:14 - 33:21By building De Broglie's equations, we can substitute these concepts with abstract vectors.
-
33:21 - 33:26This is a probability-oriented approach towards the basic and already existing concepts in physics
-
33:26 - 33:32that allows us to unify quantum mechanics with Einstein's relativity.
-
33:32 - 33:33a) Quanta & Continuity
-
33:33 - 33:37De Broglie's equations show how all reference frames are quantized,
-
33:37 - 33:41including all matter and all energy.
-
33:41 - 33:48Particle accelerators have demonstrated that matter and anti-matter are always created simultaneously.
-
33:48 - 33:54The paradox of how reality can emerge from abstract building blocks that annihilate each other
-
33:54 - 34:00can be explained by using these quanta as the frame of reference.
-
34:00 - 34:06In a simplified analogy: we need to look at things through the eyes of a photon.
-
34:06 - 34:12The reference frame is always a quantum and defines how spacetime is quantized,
-
34:12 - 34:19when it 'increases' or 'decreases', spacetime 'increases' or 'decreases' as well.
-
34:19 - 34:24This is reflected in quantum mechanics as the mathematical description of the probability amplitude
-
34:24 - 34:32of the wave function or in Einstein's relativity as time dilation and length contraction.
-
34:32 - 34:39For a quantized frame of reference, mass and energy can only be defined as abstract probabilities
-
34:39 - 34:44or, if we want to be more concrete and establish a mathematical framework,
-
34:44 - 34:49as vectors which can only exist when we assume an arrow of time.
-
34:49 - 34:54They can be derived as resonance and interference with the reference frame,
-
34:54 - 34:58which defines the minimum unit or spacetime constant c,
-
34:58 - 35:04equivalent to the constant of planck in quantum mechanics.
-
35:04 - 35:09Experiments show how conversion of matter into energy through its antimatter
-
35:09 - 35:13brings about gamma rays with exact opposite momentum.
-
35:13 - 35:20What seems to be a conversion, is the ratio between opposite vectors interpreted as distance and time,
-
35:20 - 35:24matter and antimatter, mass and energy or interference
-
35:24 - 35:29and resonance within the abstract arrow of time C(now).
-
35:29 - 35:33The sum of opposite vectors is always zero,
-
35:33 - 35:37this is the reason for the symmetry or conversation laws in physics
-
35:37 - 35:43or why, at the speed of c, time and space are zero due to length contraction and time diletion.
-
35:43 - 35:47A consequence is the Heisenberg uncertainty principle,
-
35:47 - 35:49which states that certain pairs of physical properties,
-
35:49 - 35:55such as position and momentum cannot be known simultaneously to high precision.
-
35:55 - 36:01In a sense, a single particle is its own field.
-
36:04 - 36:12This does not explain our sense of continuity, where C cancels itself out within its own required interval.
-
36:12 - 36:16But when these vectors are exponentially amplified or accelerated
-
36:16 - 36:19relative to and within the abstract arrow of time,
-
36:19 - 36:24the underlying mathematical algorithms, also describing the fundamental forces,
-
36:24 - 36:30can bring about a consistent reality, and have abstract building blocks.
-
36:30 - 36:34This is why the harmonic motion equations are used in many fields of physics
-
36:34 - 36:40involving periodic phenomena, such as quantum mechanic and electrodynamics
-
36:40 - 36:45or why Einstein's equivelence principle, used to derive the model of spacetime,
-
36:45 - 36:50states that there is no difference between gravity and acceleration.
-
36:50 - 36:56Because gravity is only a force when interpreted relative to an oscillating frame of reference.
-
36:56 - 37:03This can be illustrated with a logarythmic curve being reduced to a helix curve by the reference frame,
-
37:03 - 37:07making objects spin and move in orbits.
-
37:07 - 37:12Visually simplified, two amplified or growing apples will be interpreted to attract each other
-
37:12 - 37:18when observed by an amplified reference frame, as the size seems unaffected.
-
37:18 - 37:20The opposite occurs with interference.
-
37:20 - 37:27In a simplified analogy, the increase or decrease in the size of objects as we get closer or further away,
-
37:27 - 37:31is determined by the shift in vectors of the reference frame,
-
37:31 - 37:37similar to how a radio homes in on different waves to pick up radio stations.
-
37:37 - 37:43This also applies to the influence of gravity.
-
37:43 - 37:50In essence, independently of any reference frame, there are no fundamental forces.
-
37:50 - 37:54All interactions within our abstract continuity can be mathematically derived through
-
37:54 - 37:57interference and resonance, as long as the ever changing
-
37:57 - 38:04and fluctuating minimum unit or quantum, being the frame of reference, is taken into account.
-
38:04 - 38:08Experimental evidence includes the unseen effect in the standard model,
-
38:08 - 38:12where we can see the force-effect but not the actual force-carriers.
-
38:22 - 38:34b) Quantum Superposition
-
38:34 - 38:41The consistent continuity of reality doesn't require quanta to have any specific sequence in time.
-
38:41 - 38:45A quantum is not subject to any notion of space or time
-
38:45 - 38:50and can occupy all of its possible quantum states simultaneously.
-
38:50 - 38:54This is called quantum superposition and has been demonstrated in experiment such as
-
38:54 - 38:58the double slit experiment or quantum teleportation,
-
38:58 - 39:07where every electron in the universe for example could be the exact same one.
-
39:07 - 39:12The only requirement for an abstract arrow of time and consistent continuity or reality
-
39:12 - 39:18is the algorithm describing the pattern or abstract sequence of vectors.
-
39:18 - 39:22Since this continuity brings about our ability to be self-aware
-
39:22 - 39:30it inherently makes us subject to its mathematical consequences: the fundamental laws of physics.
-
39:30 - 39:35Interaction is merely an interpretation of what is essentially an abstract pattern.
-
39:35 - 39:40This is why quantum mechanics can only provide mathematical descriptions,
-
39:40 - 39:46since it can only describe patterns within infinite probabilities.
-
39:46 - 39:49When probability is expressed as C,
-
39:49 - 39:54the information necessary to describe the current moment or probability amplitude of C
-
39:54 - 39:59is also what embodies the arrow of time.
-
39:59 - 40:03The nature of the arrow of time is one of the biggest unsolved problem in physics
-
40:03 - 40:07and has been responsible for many new popular interpretation.
-
40:07 - 40:13The holographic principle for example, property of quantum gravity and string theories,
-
40:13 - 40:27theorizes how the entire universe can be seen as an information structure of only two dimensions.
-
40:27 - 40:44c) Time
-
40:44 - 40:49We transitionally associate the notion of an arrow time with the sequence of events
-
40:49 - 40:55that experience through the arrangement of short-term and long-term memories.
-
40:55 - 41:00We cam only have memories about the past not about the future and we've always assumed
-
41:00 - 41:04that this reflects the flow of time.
-
41:04 - 41:10Scientist only began to question this logic when discoveries in quantum mechanics demonstrated
-
41:10 - 41:17that some phenomena are not bound by our notion of time and that our concept of it is nothing more
-
41:17 - 41:22than our perception of the change in observable values.
-
41:22 - 41:27This is also reflected in time dilation and length contraction,
-
41:27 - 41:34which are part of the reason why Einstein established that time and space are the same fabric.
-
41:34 - 41:40An absolute sense, the notion of time does not differs from the notion of distance.
-
41:40 - 41:46Seconds are equal to light-seconds but cancel eachother out.
-
41:46 - 41:50To clarify: With distance and time being each other's opposites,
-
41:50 - 41:56the passing of time can be interpreted as distance that the hands of a clock travel
-
41:56 - 42:02as they move in a direction that is opposite to time.
-
42:02 - 42:09As they move forward in distance, they effectively move backwards in what we could call time.
-
42:09 - 42:14This is also why any single separate minimum unit of experience
-
42:14 - 42:19is always instantly annihilated within a timeless now.
-
42:19 - 42:30The understanding sets the record straight between wave function collapse and quantum decoherence.
-
42:30 - 42:36Concepts such as life and death are mere intellectual constructs.
-
42:36 - 42:41And any speculative spiritual idea of an afterlife that take place in a realm
-
42:41 - 42:52where the rigid mathematical underpinning of this reality come to an end are equally fabricated.
-
42:52 - 42:57An important cosmological consequence is that the big bang theory,
-
42:57 - 43:03where the universe is traced back to one point by looking at the past, is a misconception.
-
43:03 - 43:07The traditional assumption of spacetime, where space is three-dimensional
-
43:07 - 43:11and time plays the role of a fourth dimension is inaccurate.
-
43:11 - 43:17If we would want to study the origin of the universe we would actually have to look "forward",
-
43:17 - 43:22since Cnow's time vector direction is opposite to the arrow of distance,
-
43:22 - 43:27from which we perceive an expending universe.
-
43:27 - 43:31Although this temporal mapping of the universe will only yield abstract concepts
-
43:31 - 43:37with no relation to its quantum underpinnings.
-
43:37 - 43:42Experimental evidence includes the accelerating expanding universe,
-
43:42 - 43:46following what is known to be an inverse or time-reversed blackhole metric,
-
43:46 - 44:00as well as many problems related to the big bang theory such as the horizon problem.
-
44:00 - 44:04d) Neurological Implications
-
44:04 - 44:09These derivations could bring up questions about free will,
-
44:09 - 44:16since awareness seems to only take place after the action within our perception of time.
-
44:16 - 44:21Most neurological investigations that have shed light on this question show
-
44:21 - 44:26that action is indeed taken before becoming conscious of it.
-
44:26 - 44:33But a deterministic point of view is based on an erroneous concept of time, as is illustrated
-
44:33 - 44:39by the mathematical probability descriptions in quantum mechanics.
-
44:39 - 44:45These understandings will be relevant in future neurological research,
-
44:45 - 44:49since they show how any neural circuit is a vector with direction,
-
44:49 - 44:57underpinning cognitive dissonance and interference or resonance within C.
-
44:57 - 45:01The ability understand and consciously alter these directions,
-
45:01 - 45:04acquired trough billions of years of evolution,
-
45:04 - 45:10confirms how important our belief system are in expending our awareness
-
45:10 - 45:13and how they affect our working memory
-
45:13 - 45:17which is responsible for the extent to which we can make connections
-
45:17 - 45:22and for the neural processes that create meaning.
-
45:22 - 45:28It also explains how artificial awareness will require a network of independent processors
-
45:28 - 45:38instead of linear sequence of complex algorithms.
-
45:38 - 45:41e) A Limited Interpretation
-
45:41 - 45:49Athene's grand unification is one solution that unifies quantum physics and Einstein's theory of relativity.
-
45:49 - 45:53While it answers many problems in physics such as the ones listed here,
-
45:53 - 45:59it is my limited interpretation of his first months of scientific research.
-
45:59 - 46:08What ever the outcome, it is clear that we have entered an era where science is open to everyone.
-
46:08 - 46:16And is we can preserve unfiltered access to a neutral internet, we can test the validity of our ideas,
-
46:16 - 46:21we can enhance our imagination by making new correlations,
-
46:21 - 46:51and we can be part of the evolution of our understandings of the universe and of the mind.
-
46:51 - 47:01Epilogue
-
47:01 - 47:06In quantum mechanics we have learned to approach reality differently,
-
47:06 - 47:10and see everything as probabilities instead of certainties.
-
47:10 - 47:14In a mathematical sense anything is possible.
-
47:14 - 47:20As well as in science as in our daily lives, the extent to which we can calculate
-
47:20 - 47:26or figure out probabilities is determined by our intellectual capability to recognize patterns.
-
47:26 - 47:32The less bias we are, the clear we can identify these patterns
-
47:32 - 47:37and base our actions on reasonable probabilities.
-
47:37 - 47:42Since it's in the very nature of our left brain's hemisphere to deny ideas
-
47:42 - 47:47that do not fit into our current paradigm, the more attached we are to belief system,
-
47:47 - 47:53the less able we are to make conscious choices for ourselves.
-
47:53 - 48:01But by observing this process, we expand our awareness and enhance our free will.
-
48:01 - 48:07It is said that wisdom comes with age, but with openness and skepticism,
-
48:07 - 48:11the key principle of the scientific method,
-
48:11 - 48:18we don't need decades of trial and error to sort out which of our convictions may be improbable.
-
48:18 - 48:22The question is not whether our beliefs are right or wrong,
-
48:22 - 48:30but whether or not being emotionally attached to them is more or less likely going to benefit us.
-
48:30 - 48:36There is no such thing as a free choice while being emotionally attached to a belief system.
-
48:36 - 48:40The moment we are self-aware enough to realize this,
-
48:40 - 48:58we can truly work together to figure out the real odds of what will benefit us the most.
-
48:58 - 49:10"The evolution of quantum mechanics has been one of unprecedented skeptical scrutiny towards our classical scientific paradigms. The self-awareness and willingness to revise our hypotheses, which are constantly challenged in science and humanity, will determine the extent to which we gain deeper understanding into the mind and the universe."
