"c" and "h" being on an axis gave lots of food for thought.
(Haven't thought about this in a while)
Rupert says that he thought up "Morphic Resonance", right? hen how were people in the early parts of last century talking about "Morphic Resonance" talking about it using the same exact term?
Pretty sure he claims to have invented it, but it's been a while.
@GaryPaulWood I think his claims are limited in scope to having given the hypothesis more standing via empirical testing, IE he is the first person to have demonstrated the phenomena, not necessarily think it. In fact, the very hypothesis itself lends credulity to this as anyone who subscribes to morphic resonance believes that idea's do not come from the mind but are seeded into the mind from outside of it itself via the morphic fields.
I'd have to go over it again.
It's interesting stuff, but I don't trust the guy. Is definitely trying to sneak in New Age woo-woo and such from my recollection of what he's selling.
He seems like a more posh and "respectable" version of Terrance McKenna, a complete CIA frontman.
@GaryPaulWood Its only "woowoo" from a james randii fedora tipper "skeptics" perspective. If you read what he says literally, nothing is empirically wrong. He's demonstrated a phenomena that as of yet doesn't have an explanation. Possible mechanisms include orchestrated objective reduction, pilot waves, and zenneck waves. The debate rages on. People in general do not like mysteries. They would sooner accept an incorrect answer than truth.
@GaryPaulWood I'm not sure what you mean. Super fluids definitely exist.
It's just a very interesting alternative to standard physics. The general premise is that instead of a "fabric" of "space-time", it is a substance that is rather similar (at least in certain aspects) to what we know of as "superfluid"
Definitely needs some work, but it does clear up a lot of things that are currently kinda not explained very well. Like just making up particles to fill every gap, even "virtual particles".
Freaking "virtual particles"... That made me pop my top for a moment.
But if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like nails... Or "particles"
@GaryPaulWood 100% this. Even "darfk matter" and "dark energy" is mechanistically identical to the Aether. Call them pilot waves, zenneck waves, morphic resonance, superfluid, call it whatever you want: it was once known as the Aether.
The "standard" model has failed us, it is time for a new generation to probe the intricacies of the universe. Without the old "giants" chaining them back from exploration.
We very much agree on that.
