Quantum Mechanics and Reality

Peter Verheyen

Quantum mechanics: Are we seeing reality as it is? Dr Peter Verheyen from the Sola Society and Academy at Vienna University examines whether quantum mechanics and information serve as the fundamental descriptions of reality. Anton Zeilinger, Alain Aspect, and John F. Clauser were awarded the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics for their contributions to Quantum Mechanics, establishing QM as the foundation of reality. ‘Einstein was wrong, God plays dice, Quantum Mechanics rules.’

It is argued in this work that in order to explain the conflict between Bell's inequality (BI) and quantum mechanics (QM), it is neither necessary to give up the notion of Einstein locality (LOC), nor that of reality, as is done in some recent work. The definite existence of EPR's “elements of reality” is shown by using a result in a former thought experiment by M. Renninger. Einstein locality is saved by sticking to the failure of counterfactual definiteness (CFD) at the level of individual quantum processes.

Quantum mechanics (QM) is the most successful theory in the history of physics, yet it remains conceptually incomplete. Two key puzzles—the measurement problemand anomalies of subjective time-pointto a deeper layer of reality that transcends classical physics. The DSRR (Dynamic Subjective Rendering of Reality) hypothesis proposes that reality is not a static structure but an informational process dynamically regulated by consciousness. The quantum collapse is interpreted as an informational response to a demand for experience, while the subjective stretching of time arises from a change in the frequency of consciousness's informational update—the parameter νz. DSRR thus connects physics, psychophysics, and the philosophy of information into a single, experimentally verifiable framework.
