STOE Plenum Is Real

John Hodge

The “plenum” in the Scalar Theory of Everything (STOE) is the component of the universe that is a continuous medium that interacts with matter particles. Because a medium is not directly detected in instruments, the question of its reality is controversial. This is linked with the question of whether quantum waves are real waves in the plenum or merely probability waves. The experiment to demonstrate the reality of the plenum as a component of the universe has been done. The conclusion is that the plenum is a real component of the universe.

Reality, information, and consciousness The universe as a cosmic quantum computer

uestions concerning reality have plagued human consciousness since the dawn of our existence.Philosophical and scientific researchers toy with questions such as 'what is real?' in a variety of ontological and epistemological manners, using a broad array of methods.Such questions, of course, only give rise to subsequent questions pertaining to the reality of consciousness itself.Is consciousness a product of the human body (ie, the brain), or is it perhaps a deeper, even spiritual, matter?

The Seed Theory (Obsolete Version): Unifying and replacing quantum physics and general relativity with “state physics”

Anisse Zerouta

Outdated version. This article has been superseded by a complete and updated theoretical framework:Gravity as Geometric Filtration — https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-6570489/v1Please refer to this version for any scientific citation or analysis.Quantum physics has profoundly disrupted our understanding of reality. Matter appears to be both a wave and a corpuscle and only reveals its properties upon observation.In this article, we propose a radically new perspective: what we perceive as reality is not reality itself, but a projection among countless others, originating from a deeper, unknown reality. This projection takes place on a multitude of microscopic and macroscopic perforated screens, generating an infinite number of parallel universes that interconnect through microscopic interpenetration.According to this theory, matter exists in only two fundamental states: a free state and a fixed state.In the fixed state, matter behaves like a corpuscle governed by the laws of general relativity, and interacts with elements of the same universe.In the free state, it behaves like a wave subject to quantum laws—interacting both with matter from the same universe and with matter from parallel universes.The wave-like nature of particles is an illusion—a human misinterpretation of what is, in reality, a multiversal corpuscular structure, born from the interference of matter across universes. This interference is made possible by perforations in the projection screens.We demonstrate how this framework allows us to reconsider and potentially eliminate the need for traditional concepts like gravitation, dark matter, dark energy, and black holes as we currently understand them.Furthermore, we propose new interpretations for superconductivity, quantum entanglement, and quantum teleportation. Finally, by manipulating the state of real matter to create macroscopic quantum objects, this theory opens doors to time travel, teleportation, antigravity, and inter-universe movement.
