Communicating Science (212)

Recently, I’ve developed a keen interest in fields like epigenetics and quantum physics, exploring alternative perspectives on existence.

Among the intriguing arguments I’ve encountered in various readings is the notion that the universe emerges from movement. This argument, though simple, carries a profound and perhaps even controversial implication.

This is how the author of meta-therapy, Mohammad Ali Taheri, explained his theory in one of his books:

“Imagine I am holding a piece of long and narrow wood. If I ask you to describe what you see in my hand you would say it is a long narrow piece of wood. however if  I make a circular motion with it fast enough, depending  upon the angle of your vision or how fast I am moving the piece of wood or where is the center of my motion you will see a circle or perhaps a cylinder. So here is another question, is this cylinder real?

Of course, it is real you might respond, you can see it, and also you might even feel the air that is moving because of its motion . Therefore it is real.

However, does the cylinder exist?

Perhaps it does not. The reason is that in the instant I stop moving the piece of wood the cylinder changes back into being a long and narrow piece of wood.

Well, you might ask how this is related to life and living things.

We all know that everything in this world is made of atoms and atoms are made of electrons which evolve around their nucleus. Additionally, electrons and nuclei themselves are made of subatomic particles which move around each other and furthermore most of an atom is just an empty space (which is greatly discussed in scientific articles specifically regarding quantum physics).  How atoms can with most of them being empty space give rise to solid objects. If we look at an atom from a distance, we will see spheres that are the consequence of electron clouds being formed by moving around their nucleus in specific orbits. Eventually, we perceive an atom as a solid matter.

Now let’s expand our atomic discussion by considering the human body. Knowing our body is made of millions of cells and every single cell in our body is made of electrons and protons. If we could stop electrons’ movement, the nuclei that will be left from a human can be gathered on a needle’s tip. Let’s get even closer and look at a collection of the nuclei. Each nuclei is made from protons and neutrons that move in certain directions. If we stop protons and neutrons movement, what will be left will be much less than 1 nanometer which consists of quarks and positrons, etc. .”

here is a musical twist of what I just said with more information

let us expand our discussion even more to outer space. Most of the outer space is also empty space, just like an atom. Planets and stars revolve around each other.  It is worth noting that we see planets and stars around us the way they are because we are positioned on planet Earth which happens to have a certain speed and position around the sun. This question comes to mind would we see galaxy and outer space the way we see it now if we were living on for example planet Neptune or planet Venus. If we were moving faster or slower than what we are moving now, the “reality” of outer space would be much different than what we have definitions for in books and scientific articles at the current time.

Conclusions:

1. the whole universe is made of atoms and therefore from movement.
2. we see things and based on our 6 senses we understand our surroundings. In fact, the entire universe is a consequence of the movements of electrons and we are seeing just an illusion.

Bizarre yet fascinating.
