Conscious Voxel Model

Asrar Hussain

Published Jul 3, 2025• 0 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

Modern physics assumes space-time as either continuous or probabilistically discrete in quantum contexts. However, advancements in simulation theory and computational modeling suggest the need for an alternate ontology. We propose that space is not a flowing continuum but a static 3D voxel grid, activated only when observed

Physics From Consciousness

Donald D. Hoffman

Scientific investigation of the classic mind-body problem has failed to produce a viable theory. As McGinn puts it, We know that brains are the de facto causal basis of consciousness, but we have, it seems, no understanding whatever of how this can be. I propose that the obstruction is commitment to a physicalist ontology: It is not possible to obtain consciousness from unconscious ingredients. I propose instead the ontology of conscious realism: Consciousness and its contents are all that exists. Matter, brains, and space-time are among the contents of consciousness, dependent on it for their existence. For a conscious realist the mind-body problem is to show precisely how conscious agents construct the macroscopic and microscopic physical world. I propose a mathematically rigorous account of conscious agents and their dynamics, and of their construction of the physical world. In particular, I propose that the physical world is a species-specific user interface, and that quantum physics represents properties of the stable dynamics of conscious agents. Symmetries of these stable dynamics are the source of the symmetries studied in quantum physics. I present a concrete dynamics for pairs of conscious agents that exhibits SL(2,C) symmetry, and from this obtain a physical representation of the dynamics in terms of relativistic spin half particles. This representation allows one to canonically associate a discrete patch of Minkowski space-time to each such pair of conscious agents, and suggests that, at the smallest scale, space-time is discrete. This suggestion comports well with current approaches to quantum gravity.

Theory of the Finite Resolution Observer: Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity as Aliasing and Latency Artifacts of Discrete Voxel Rewriting

Kapitanov Fedor

Ontological Resolution Theory (ORT) — Paper J (v1.0) This paper presents a rigorous ontological model in which physical reality is a discrete 4D Face-Centered Cubic (FCC) lattice (k=12) governed by deterministic voxel state rewriting. By discarding the paradigm of continuous spacetime and fundamental differential equations, we mathematically demonstrate that the pillars of modern physics are macroscopic interface illusions: The Absence of Motion: Physical dynamics is an illusion arising from frame comparison. Nothing moves; voxel states simply rewrite from one Tick to the next. Quantum Mechanics as Aliasing: A macroscopic observer, constrained to a 4-bit interface, samples only ~3% of voxel information per Tick. Superposition is strictly redefined as a pending rewrite buffer. The wave function is a time-averaged probability of defect presence, and measurement is buffer commitment. Gravity as Rewrite Latency: Gravity is not spacetime curvature, but computational delay. When voxel load approaches its 133-bit capacity, the rewrite rate drops, manifesting to external observers as time dilation. The Schwarzschild radius ($R_S = 2M$) is derived exactly from the channel saturation condition. Tensors as Macroscopic Statistics: The metric tensor and the Einstein field equations ($G_{\mu\nu} = 8\pi T_{\mu\nu}$) are not fundamental laws. They are thermodynamic limits—continuous statistical approximations of discrete network routing delays over $\sim 10^{60}$ voxels. This framework eliminates the QM-GR schism by proving both theories are effective descriptions of a single discrete substrate operating at different load regimes (low-load for QM, high-load for GR). The paper includes exact numerical verifications (>99% accuracy for standard model parameters derived from pure geometry) and strict falsification criteria.

Relay Transmission Theory (RTT): A Discrete Information-Network Model of Spacetime and Wave-Particle Duality Resolution.

Igor Rachkovskiy

This paper introduces the Relay Transmission Theory (RTT), a novel ontological framework that defines the Universe as a stationary three-dimensional grid of discrete cells (voxels). RTT proposes that the motion of matter is not a physical displacement of an object but a sequential informational relay of states between stationary nodes. By defining the particle as a discrete cell record and the wave as its probabilistic translation process, RTT provides a fundamental, non-paradoxical resolution to wave-particle duality. The theory redefines time as the cumulative clock rate of the system and explains inertia as a programmatic "relay delay."

The Radical Continuum: A Timeless Ontological Foundation for Determinism, Quantum Mechanics, and Consciousness

Berry Aarts

This paper is based on my research about the universe as whole. How it really is functioning. Totally different as we expect it does. There is nu time only a continuum of processes. Nothing else. Time only exists in the mind of the observer. Read the paper for more info.
