Geometry is one of the oldest disciplines in human history, yet the worlds it can describe extend far beyond its original use. What began thousands of years ago as a way to measure land and build pyramids was given rigor by Euclid in ancient Greece, became applied to curves and surfaces in the 19th century, and eventually helped Einstein understand the universe. Yang-Hui He sees geometry as a unifying language for modern physics, a mutual exchange in which each discipline can influence and shape the other. In the latest episode of The Joy of Why, He tells co-host Steven Strogatz how geometry evolved from its practical roots in ancient civilizations to its influence in the theory of general relativity and string theory — and speculates how AI could further revolutionize the field. They also discuss the tension between formal, rigorous mathematics and intuition-driven insight, and why there are two types of mathematicians — “birds” who have a broad overview of ideas from above, and “hedgehogs” who dig deep on one particular idea.

Oops, I did it again - click - oops, I did it again - click - oops, did it again....He built a time machine in his car. It caught fire. The government showed up. Then Britney Spears bought one.Yes, really.Welcome to the mind of Francoie Gagnon, Quebec's very own chrononaut, consciousness tech inventor, and DIY engineer of mind-matter machines. In this episode of Open Loops, Francoie joins Greg to talk about the real story behind time travel technology: scalar waves, Tesla coils, radionic devices, and vortex-powered quantum portals.A French-accented conspiracy theorist who isn't ranting about Macron? Count yourself in. Francoie's been researching fringe science and time travel tech since the dial-up days. He's spoken directly to the legends—Al Bielek, Preston Nichols, Steven Gibbs, even claimed contact with John Titor. He's built devices based on the Philadelphia Experiment, opened miniature portals, and had actual users vanish (for real). Oh, and he's been featured on MTV.This is not your typical “aliens built the pyramids” fare. This is DIY time travel for the curious mind.  If you're into parallel timelines, dimensional shifts, quantum weirdness, or just want to know what kind of time machine Britney Spears allegedly bought on eBay... this episode delivers.Where the impossible meets meticulous Canadian tinkering, Francoie's story will make you question your clock, your past, and whether your microwave is secretly a stargate.Buckle up, traveler.Francoie's Links: http://timenomore.tripod.comHis YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@ThinkHarder The Paranormalis Forums to find Francoie's time adventures - https://paranormalis.com/forums/time-machines-experiments.61/ Let Greg know how you like the show.

Part 1 of today's Morning Show is a newly recorded interview with Hope Larson in which she talks about "Very Bad at Math- a Very Graphic Novel." Her main character is an otherwise successful high school student who struggles terribly with math. It turns out that she - like the author- suffers from a condition called Dyscalculia (similar to Dyslexia, but involving the swapping of numerals rather than letters.) Part 2- an archival interview from 2019, features Professor John D. Stein talking about his book "How Math Explains the World- A Guide to the Power of Numbers from Car Repairs to Modern Physics."

We dive into an article written in The Journal of Modern Physics called "Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena, Extraterrestrial Life, Plasmoids, Shape Shifters, Replicons, Thunderstorms, Lightning, Hallucinations, Aircraft Disasters, Ocean Sightings." I'll read some excerpts pertaining to shapeshiftiing and we ponder the argument of animal vs object. We then drop some bombs about new discoveries inside and underneath the Great Pyramid Plateau at Giza. Wowsers. Here's a link to article and video on the pyramids:https://gregreese.substack.com/p/sar-scan-of-khafre-pyramid-shows?triedRedirect=trueI've made the article from the Journal of Modern Physics available for free patrons and the public at my patreon page:www.patreon.com/ryansingerHope to see you on the road this summer! www.ryansingercomedy.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/me-paranormal-you-with-ryan-singer--5471727/support.

IL MIO PRIMO LIBRO È DISPONIBILE ORA https://amzn.to/40fJhNe Che cosa sono i PLASMOIDI? Alcuni parlano di una nuova forma di vita aliena extraterrestre basata sul plasma. Dopo gli avvistamenti UFO/UAP del New Jersey, si è scatenata questa nuova teoria delle sfere di plasma, appunto i plasmoidi, e un nuovo studio parla di queste nuove entità aliene. In questo video, esploriamo il fenomeno affascinante e misterioso dei plasmoidi. Cosa sono realmente? Si tratta di semplici sfere di plasma, oppure di una manifestazione aliena legata agli avvistamenti UFO e UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena)? Approfondiamo le ipotesi scientifiche e le teorie più controverse, analizzando avvistamenti documentati, come quelli legati agli UFO nel New Jersey e ad altre segnalazioni di fenomeni aerei inspiegabili. Parleremo del significato dei plasmoidi, delle loro caratteristiche, e dei casi storici che li vedono protagonisti, tra cui i leggendari avvistamenti UFO sopra città e oceani. I plasmoidi possono davvero spiegare certi fenomeni extraterrestri? Oppure sono una chiave per comprendere eventi atmosferici poco noti? Con un approccio critico e basato sulle evidenze, affrontiamo il legame tra sfere di plasma, alieni e UAP, svelando ciò che la scienza (e la speculazione) hanno da dire su queste enigmatiche entità.

November 1974 became known as the “November Revolution” in particle physics. Two teams on either side of the US discovered the same particle - the “J/psi” meson. On the "J" team, at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, Sau Lan Wu and colleagues were smashing protons and neutrons together and looking for electrons and positron pairs in the debris. Over at Stanford on the other side of the US, Dr Michael Riordan was in a lab with the "psi" team who, in some ways the other direction, were smashing electrons and positrons together to see what was created. They both, unbeknownst to each other, found a peak around 3.1Gev.It was shortly after that the full significance was clear. The existence of this particle confirmed a new type of quark, theorised in what we now call the Standard Model, but never before observed - the Charm quark. And with Prof Sau Lan Wu's team's subsequent discovery of gluons – the things that hold it all together – a pattern appeared in what had been the chaos of high energy physics and the nature of matter. Sau Lan and Michael (author of "The Hunting of the Quark: A True Story of Modern Physics") tell Roland the story.Prof Matthew Genge and colleagues at the Natural History Museum in London have found evidence of a bacillus growing on samples of the asteroid Ryugu brought back from space by the Hayabusa 2 mission. Rather than evidence for alien life, as they suggest in a paper this month, the contamination shows how easily terrestrial microorganisms can colonise space rocks, even when subjected to the strictest control precautions.And And Per Ahlberg of Uppsala University and colleagues report in Science how they have taken a load of fossilised faecal matter and mapped out the evolution of dinosaur diets. First came the carnivores… then the vegetarian revolution…(Photo: Samuel Ting (front) shown with members of his J/psi experimental team.

We challenge the mainstream notion that the speed of light is always constant. By examining Einstein's theories and various experiments, we explore how gravitational potential can cause light speed to vary, particularly near massive objects. We delve into the concept of "effective speed of light" and discuss how gravity influences time, leading to differences in clock rates at various altitudes. Additionally, we critique traditional interpretations of spacetime curvature and propose a model where light speed changes based on the medium and gravitational conditions. Join us as we rethink foundational physics assumptions and explore the implications of these findings.Podcast published on 08 Nov 2024.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/lehto-files-investigating-uaps--5990774/support.

We're diving deep into the core issues plaguing modern physics and questioning whether our scientific models truly reflect reality—or if they're just mathematical constructs keeping us stuck. From the mysteries of the double-slit experiment to the unaddressed inconsistencies in gravity and quantum mechanics, we'll challenge mainstream assumptions and explore why revolutionary ideas are often dismissed. Could it be time for a paradigm shift in science, much like when Galileo and Einstein redefined their eras? Join us as we rethink the fundamentals and ask: Is it finally time for a scientific revolution?Podcast published on 01 Nov 2024.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/lehto-files-investigating-uaps--5990774/support.

DemystifySci is on the road again, still thinking hard about the nature of the universe. In this episode, recorded on a tropical island somewhere in the middle of the Pacific, we dive into the noble tradition of mystical physics, with a little help from Walter Russel, a painter, sculptor, and mystic from the turn of the 20th century. Our goal is twofold. First, to lay the groundwork for why we think there is much to be gained from finding the “needle in the hay” in the ideas of visionary thinkers who approach nature by an intuitive rather than empirical vector. The second is to explore the ideas that inspired Terrence Howard's models - because we're headed down to Los Angeles to record with him in person. As always, we seek to find the best pieces of the ideas on offer and articulate them to everything else that we have come to know about the cosmos.

Ralston College Humanities MA Dr John Vervaeke is a cognitive scientist and philosopher who explores the intersections of Neoplatonism, cognitive science, and the meaning crisis, focusing on wisdom practices, relevance realization, and personal transformation. Ralston College presents a lecture titled “Levels of Intelligibility, Levels of the Self: Realizing the Dialectic,” delivered by Dr John Vervaeke, an award-winning associate professor of cognitive science at the University of Toronto and creator of the acclaimed 50-episode “Awakening from the Meaning Crisis” series. In this lecture, Dr Vervaeke identifies our cultural moment as one of profound disconnection and resulting meaninglessness. Drawing on his own cutting-edge research as a cognitive scientist and philosopher, Vervaeke presents a way out of the meaning crisis through what he terms “third-wave Neoplatonism.” He reveals how this Neoplatonic framework, drawn in part from Plato's conception of the tripartite human soul, corresponds to the modern understanding of human cognition and, ultimately, to the levels of reality itself. He argues that a synoptic integration across these levels is not only possible but imperative.   — 00:00 Levels of Intelligibility: Integrating Neoplatonism and Cognitive Science 12:50 Stage One: Neoplatonic Psycho-ontology and the Path to Spirituality 41:02 Aristotelian Science: Knowing as Conformity and Transformation 46:36 Stoic Tradition: Agency, Identity, and the Flow of Nature 01:00:10 Stage Two: Cognitive Science and the Integration of Self and Reality 01:04:45 The Frame Problem and Relevance Realization  01:08:45 Relevance Realization and the Power of Human Cognition 01:20:15 Transjective Reality: Affordances and Participatory Fittedness 01:23:55 The Role of Relevance Realization: Self-Organizing Processes 01:31:30 Predictive Processing and Adaptivity 01:44:35 Critiquing Kant: The Case for Participatory Realism 01:53:35 Stage Three: Neoplatonism and the Meaning Crisis  02:00:15 Q&A Session 02:01:45 Q: What is the Ecology of Practices for Cultivating Wisdom? 02:11:50 Q: How Has the Cultural Curriculum Evolved Over Time? 02:26:30 Q: Does the World Have Infinite Intelligibility? 02:33:50 Q: Most Meaningful Visual Art? 02:34:15 Q: Social Media's Impact on Mental Health and Information? 02:39:45 Q: What is Transjective Reality? 02:46:35 Q: How Can Education Address the Meaning Crisis? 02:51:50 Q: Advice for Building a College Community? 02:55:30 Closing Remarks   — Authors, Ideas, and Works Mentioned in this Episode:    Antisthenes Aristotle Brett Anderson Byung-Chul Han Charles Darwin Daniel Dennett D.

I have had the privilege of working closely with Frank Wilczek for over 40 years, on and off, and we have written perhaps a dozen scientific papers together over that time. Our collaborations together were always a source of joy, and often of wonder, and I am pleased to say that a number of them had significant impact on our fields of study. While I have had the privilege of working with many talented scientists during my career, Frank is unique. He is one of the most broadly read, deep, and creative scientists I have known. To first approximation, he has read everything in science, and one of the characteristics of our own collaborations that has been so much fun is entering an entirely new field of study and learning how much is known about it, and how that knowledge might be used in new contexts. Frank is likely the most significant theoretical physicist of my generation, and along with Ed Witten, perhaps the intellectually most gifted. That he won the Nobel Prize for work performed as a graduate student with David Gross to develop the theory of one of the four known forces in nature is notable, but it just scratches the surface of his interests and accomplishments. While Frank and I have appeared onstage together on numerous occasions, I was waiting for the opportunity to sit down with him for an extended period to discuss his life in science, and the areas of study that reflect the most significant developments of recent times, and the outstanding challenges in our field. It was a pleasure to be able to do so for this podcast. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, and that it inspires your interest in the world around us.

Dr. John Vervaeke and Sevilla King delve into intricate topics that cut across philosophy, psychology, and science. The conversation commences with an in-depth exploration of the "meaning crisis" and secular humanism. Sevilla King tackles the limitations of subject-object metaphysics, while Dr. Vervaeke expounds upon nominalism and its implications for understanding the world's patterns. They discuss Neoplatonism as a potential grounding philosophy for a "religion that's not a religion," and contrast it with the complexities of modern thought. As the conversation evolves, they engage in vibrant debates about embodiment, rationality, the potential and pitfalls of scientific inquiry, and the nature of love and truth. Dr. Vervaeke uses illustrative analogies, and Sevilla King emphasizes the role of mindset and the cultural implications of scientific paradigms.

Sid Chhabra is a computer scientist and scholar of Vedic cosmology. His research has revealed startling quantitative similarities between the predictions of ancient works and modern mathematical physics. Fundamentally, however, Sid approaches cosmology as an integrative art that requires one to put themselves into a cosmic context on a daily basis. He argues that cosmology is a study rich with meaning for each person's journey through this world.

Scientists agree that our universe is finely tuned for the existence of life. But is the fine-tuning a happy accident or the result of foresight? On this ID The Future, host Brian Miller continues his conversation with Rabbi Elie Feder and Rabbi Aaron Zimmer, hosts of the Physics to God podcast. Feder has a PhD in mathematics and has published articles on graph theory. Zimmer has training in physics, and has studied mathematics, philosophy, and psychology. Both men also have extensive rabbinical training. Through their podcast, Feder and Zimmer invite both secular and religious listeners on a journey through modern physics as they offer rational arguments for an intelligent cause of the universe. In the conclusion to their discussion, Feder and Zimmer explain why the cosmological constant is one of their favorite examples of fine-tuning. They also share the importance of exploring the teleological causes, or purposes, of natural phenomena. To help listeners grasp the difference between efficient causes and teleological causes, they give the example of a carpenter who builds a table. Is the carpenter the cause of the existence of the table? Or is the idea of the table in the carpenter's mind the cause? Or both? Using modern physics, say Feder and Zimmer, an objective justification for the purpose of the universe can be made. Enjoy this provocative and illuminating discussion!

Death might seem to render pointless all of our attempts to create a meaningful life. But Professor Dean Rickles argues that only constraints―and death is the ultimate constraint―make our actions meaningful. In order for us to live full lives, Dean believes it is the finiteness and shortness of life that brings meaning. In this episode we explore how this insight is the key to making the most of the time that we do have. Dr. Dean Rickles is a Professor of History and Philosophy of Modern Physics at The University of Sydney. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Leeds with a thesis on conceptual issues in quantum gravity. He is also the Co-Director of the Sydney Centre for Time, an Advisor for The Lifeboat Foundation, and Co-leads a Templeton Foundation-funded interdisciplinary project on the flow of time. His primary research focus is the history and philosophy of modern physics, particularly quantum gravity and spacetime physics.  Dean's authored dozens of peer-reviewed articles along with a number of books. He is also a member of the New York Academy of Sciences and the Foundational Questions Institute.  The primary focus of our conversation was on his latest book, Life Is Short. I personally really enjoyed it, and midway through I set it aside to send Dean a request to be on the podcast as I knew I needed to connect and discuss it.  Life is Short explores how death limits our options and forces us to make choices that forge a life and give the world meaning. Therein Dean writes that people often live in a state of indecision, in a misguided attempt to keep their options open. “By reminding us how extraordinary it is that we have any time to live at all, Life Is Short challenges us to rethink what gives life meaning and how to make the most of it." Dean has said that he, himself feels that that life is too short, so I asked him about some of the ways he lives his, albeit too short life, in full. While this is a deep, deep conversation that covers many disciplines, our specific discussion on Life is Short I think will be of interest to anyone wanting to live their life in full.

Watch the video of Sir Roger's lecture here: https://youtu.be/smUYz9ti_bA Sir Roger Penrose, the celebrated English mathematician and physicist as well as author of numerous books, including The Emperor's New Mind: Concerning Computers, Minds, and the Laws of Physics, joined the Clarke Center to share a talk titled "Fashion, Faith and Fantasy and the Big Questions in Modern Physics" based on his book of the same name. In his book Fashion, Faith and Fantasy and the Big Questions in Modern Physics, Roger Penrose argues that fashion, faith, and fantasy, while sometimes productive and even essential in physics, may be leading today's researchers astray in three of the field's most important areas—string theory, quantum mechanics, and cosmology. * **String theory** is a branch of theoretical physics that attempts to unify all of the fundamental forces of nature in a single framework. However, string theory requires the existence of six extra hidden dimensions, which Penrose argues is not physically plausible. He also cautions that the fashionable nature of string theory can cloud our judgment of its plausibility. * **Quantum mechanics** is a fundamental theory in physics that provides a description of the physical properties of nature at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles. However, Penrose argues that quantum mechanics is based on a number of unproven assumptions, and that it may not be applicable to all physical systems. * **Cosmology** is the study of the origin, evolution, and eventual fate of the universe. Penrose argues that many of the current fantastical ideas about the origins of the universe cannot be true, but that an even wilder reality may lie behind them. Penrose concludes by arguing that fashion, faith, and fantasy should be replaced by physics: theories which, although they may be completely wrong, can at least be tested in the foreseeable future and discarded if they disagree with experiment or investigated further if not excluded by the results. The book has been praised by some physicists for its insights into the current state of physics, while others have criticized it for its negative tone and its lack of constructive proposals.

Maaneli has published his research in journals such as Physics Letters A, Journal of Physics, Pure and Applied Mathematics Quarterly, Entropy, and Symmetry, and has served as an anonymous referee for Physical Review A, Foundations of Physics, Fluctuations and Noise Letters, Studies in the History and Philosophy of Modern Physics, The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, and Cambridge University Press; his work has also been covered in Science, New Scientist, EurekaAlert!, Phys.org, and the Clubhouse show It's About Time!, among other media outlets. Outside of physics, Maaneli has contributed a philosophical essay, “Another Thing in This Universe that Cannot Be an Illusion,” to the volume, Sam Harris: Critical Responses, and will contribute an essay to the upcoming volume, Steven Pinker: Critical Responses. Maaneli is also a member of the Manhattan Institute and Adam Smith Society therein, and works with them to advocate for free markets and limited government. His shift to a more sensible view about climate change was initiated by reading Thomas Gale Moore's, Climate of Fear: Why We Shouldn't Worry About Global Warming, a book enthusiastically endorsed by his favorite economist, Milton Friedman, for making a compelling case that global warming will most likely bring net benefits to the general public.

Dean Rickles is Professor of History and Philosophy of Modern Physics at the University of Sydney and a Director of the Sydney Centre for Time. Life doesn't last that long. The ever present spectre of death looms large, even if you life to be 100. This can feel like a tragedy in many ways. What use are our efforts if they'll all be turned to dust eventually? A philosopher is needed here, to give us a fresh perspective. Expect to learn why keeping your options open is a path to an early grave, how you can remind yourself of the miracle that you're alive at all, the solution to living a listless, unintentional life, whether death is actually the only thing that gives life any meaning, the danger of being a sailor without a journey or a route and much more...
