Paradigm Shift

 It being the case that the crises in international relations may only be resolved at a higher dimensional non geopolitical focus, what is required is the convening of the world’s governments. This must be centered upon basic common goals. 

These are delivering the fruits of scientific progress toward uplifting the standard of living and all that entails. It further prioritizes key research areas and applications. I have previously outlined these on this platform. 

Rigorous scientific thought must provide a long term future for the inhabitants of this planet as we move our civilization outward.

Dante Alighieri and Culture Wars

Is it the case that the caregiver in a monogamous human relationship seeks to reform their mate according to their own preferences? And furthermore isn’t it the case that when these same mates stubbornly refuse to communicate their relationship becomes rather hellish.

And this brings me to Dante. Recall to mind he was in a dark woods at midlife pining for any direction out. It was the principle of producing a transformative poem in obeisance to his beloved Beatrice. On today’s political stage, we are like Dante in a dark woods. We are being tested upon whither goes society.

Dante Alighieri created a sort of almost living vehicle in his Divine Comedy. For what he did was a blow against the oligarchy of his day. The vernacular became the new medium for great and beautiful art and science. That is revolutionary. 

Our current unfinished business is to create a unifying narrative that brings humanity to the next stage.

Physical Topology and Incongruities of Perceptual Space Resolved

 Since on a hyper-dimensional torus, for instance, the astronomical universe is finitely bounded and recursive due to its arrangement of complex covering surfaces, it is not surprising that light should also complete such covering circuits since it is unable to be destroyed. 

This would explain why those forms of elemental matter, whether particles or waves, which are congruent with this property of light, i.e. that of indestructability, should not also be recursively superposed since they may traverse such a hyper-dimensional and notably finite surface. In fact, it would not be surprising in that regard if superposition of recursive forms of energy and matter were not happening apparently randomly due to their very such bounded finite nature although almost immeasurably large. 

Thus the local realism finite axiomatic suppositions of our naïve sense certainty melt away. But that is in accord with the ontological topology of that which determines those very senses. The wonderful yet to be uncovered anomalous topology of the evolving multiply connected Riemannian singularity poled surface complex hypersphere. Such that the apparent irrationality is resolved at a higher perspective. 

The issue confronting our society is in sharing such wonderful insights collaboratively instead of continuously threatening to obliterate each other. That is truly irrational, unlike the geometry of the physical, living and creatively conscious realms of being.

The Antimatter Era

 If we survive the terrible twos of humanity’s evolution, the current nuclear age will be succeeded by the fusion (thermonuclear age) within the next decade or so. If we don’t suicide human civilization shortly, we will emerge from the terrible twos into preadolescence. That will mean the advent of the next sequential age after fusion, i.e. the antimatter age.

This arrow of human time is conformal with the reigning in of energy, the capability of biophysics advances in gene and proteomics and using the electromagnetic spectrum for communications as well as and at least as importantly, if not more so — Art. This is in no wise science fiction. Evolutionary trajectories are what Leibniz hailed as pre-established harmonically. Geometrically they are in the meta mathematical realm of the psyche, if you will. Such that as we advance our understanding of the synchronicity of curvature and dimensionality with numeric and meta numeric spacetime, that pathway by necessity create a succession of ascending phases in human development.

The Psychology of Trusting a Thoroughly Corrupt Establishment

 In the name of creating an empire based on a false dichotomy dreamed up in the 18th century between capitalists and workers, the United States was captured by fanatics bent upon global geopolitical domination. It really wasn’t until the “have nots” sans culottes set up an irrational retaliatory form of anarchy in France that the U.S. could be later recruited to provide the firepower for such schemes. The bette noir of communism on the heels of defeat of the axis powers in WWII came as a convenient excuse to formalize the rampant military expansionism of today’s “rules based order.” 

The decision to wantonly slaughter civilians in carpet bombings in Germany and then the deployment of two atomic bombs in Japan served as a sort of object lesson rationalism accepted popularly in the collective consciousness that this was now to be the role of America as superpower. This is why today so many of our citizens go along to get along with the unleashing of unending geopolitical wars short of all out thermonuclear war. We decide to look the other way convinced that somehow the wholesale human slaughter that we engage or accede to is in the end a sort of necessary price to pay for “normalcy.” 

If anyone or anything would threaten to disrupt this false normalcy narrative of the necessary control of what Eisenhower called the military industrial complex then there must be a curtailment of those threats. Whether or not this is even consciously examined by the populace is beside the point.  The acceptance of the rules of the game acts as consent. There are always rationalizations.

A Fully Cooperative Platform for Autonomous Planetoids in Space

 Imagine the progress in the biophysical realm that we can achieve some centuries hence. The components of the proteome that will make possible extending the healthspan and organ and bodily regeneration will increasingly be practical. 

For instance, the problem of the sleep/wake earth rotational cycle governed by the suprachiasmatic nucleus will be in our power to alter along with healthspan extension. Manufacturing food, fuel and living environments for such artificial planetoids from the raw materials in space will have been mastered. 

With the above humanity’s experience of time will be altered such that our psyche will shed much as a chrysalis does its false worldview of predator prey relationships due to scarcity. Physical labor will be totally replaced via robotics such that the newly freed human spirit will be given free reign to problem solve and create beauty. 

The history of our society’s brutal infancy before we moved off the earth will be distant collective memories. Our past wars over the control imperium of financial shackles will seem risibly unreal. We will encounter no enemies to struggle over finite resources because resources will truly for all practical purposes be infinite. And as such the scientific process whereby we go beyond limitations in taming yet unknown properties of space and time will be the province of us all in solidarity as opposed to the slave mentality of each against all.

Unexamined assumptions result in war

 People in power are captives to their precepts about why they are where they are. It is the clash of these assumptions that include emphatically that warfare is a fact of life regardless of the era in human history. This is not equivalent to the popularized maxim of a "clash of civilizations." Such maxims smack of the pipedreams of authors who would characterize worldviews of nations. Say Tocqueville for instance.  

This misses the forest for the trees. And interestingly results from said authors failure to examine their own assumptions about the way in which the zeitgeist determines things. It is a framework founded upon a particularly dreadful assumption that humans are merely amoral talking animals. Such are very much in the sense that frameworks lie behind hypotheses in mathematics, religion and science. 

However, due to the current technological status of our control over states of matter, we find ourselves by necessity unable to escape examining our assumptions about warfare. Because we could easily by miscalculation wind up with no future. 

Thus it is a predominate urgency to broadcast the message to convene the powers and agree upon an overriding mission for humanity's pathway out of this crisis. 

 

Time for Humanity

 We know of various segmentations of time for all realms of physical reality. There are half lives of radioactive elements as well as for fusion in the interiors of stars. Then there are the regular exudations and waves of radiation of cyclical growth and regeneration of plants and animals. These manifest themselves at the nano dimension of proteins and DNA all the way up to the level of the populations of species interactions. 

We currently have telescoped our uniquely human conception of time into a very narrow range due to fomenting of crises of potential extermination of society due to the sequalae of financial breakdown and impending global nuclear warfare. This theme of the veritable one minute to midnight syndrome is pervasive and colors all our comings and goings, willy nilly. It is a cultural pessimism that promotes a vitiated and rather ugly type  of escapism crudely dressed up as "freedom."

However, for a moment or two, let us explore an alternative perspective of a kind of potentially adjusted timeframe for humanity. Suppose we set our sites on populating Mars and terraforming it over the next century or so. Simultaneously, we will create a habitable "planetoid" fueled by matter anti matter reactions for likewise terraforming the next potentially habitable planet in the closest "Goldilocks zone" star system. This endeavor will perhaps be accomplished say in a few centuries. As part of this mission, we will also extend the health span of individual humans by many years.

What we have pointed toward here may seem like a fantastical vision of science fiction. But if we were to mentally put ourselves back  a mere say two centuries of human history would not what we take for granted as technological accomplishments seem fantastical? Thus time is relative to the happiness of humanity's mission orientation. In that sense we experience the simultaneity of eternity in the realm of scientific and artistic truly human imagination.
