Download or read book The Cosmic Hologram written by Jude Currivan and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-02-16 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How holographic patterns of information underlie our physical reality • 2017 Nautilus Silver Award • Includes myriad evidence from a wide range of cutting-edge scientific discoveries showing our Universe is an interconnected hologram of information • Explains how consciousness is a major component of the cosmic hologram of information, making us both manifestations and co-creators of our reality • Reconciles Quantum Mechanics and Einstein’s Theory of Relativity by showing that energy-matter and space-time are complementary expressions of information Our understanding of the Universe is about to transform at all levels, from the tiniest Planck scale to the vast reaches of space. Recent scientific discoveries show that the information that upholds all of our modern technologies is exactly the same as the universal in-formation that underpins, pervades, and is all we call physical reality. Exploring how information is more fundamental than energy, matter, space, or time, Jude Currivan, Ph.D., examines the latest research across many fields of study and many scales of existence to show how our Universe is in-formed and holographically manifested. She explains how the fractal in-formational patterns that guide behavior at the atomic level also guide the structure of galactic clusters in space. She demonstrates how the in-formational relationships that underlie earthquakes are the same as those that play out during human conflicts. She shows how cities grow in the same in-formational ways that galaxies evolve and how the dynamic in-formational forms that pervade ecosystems are identical to the informational structures of the Internet and our social behaviors. Demonstrating how information is physically real, the author explores how consciousness connects us to the many interconnected layers of universal in-formation, making us both manifestations and co-creators of the cosmic hologram of reality. She explains how Quantum Mechanics and Einstein’s Theory of Relativity can at last be reconciled if we consider energy-matter and space-time as complementary expressions of information, and she explores how the cosmic hologram underlies the true origin of species and our own evolution. Concurring too with ancient spiritual wisdom, the author offers solid evidence that consciousness is not something we “have” but the fundamental nature of what we and the entire Universe are. With this understanding, we can each transform our own lives and help co-create and in-form the world around us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible look at the mysteries that lurk at the edge of the known universe and beyond The observable universe, the part we can see with telescopes, is incredibly vast. Yet recent theories suggest that there is far more to the universe than what our instruments record—in fact, it could be infinite. Colossal flows of galaxies, large empty regions called voids, and other unexplained phenomena offer clues that our own "bubble universe" could be part of a greater realm called the multiverse. How big is the observable universe? What it is made of? What lies beyond it? Was there a time before the Big Bang? Could space have unseen dimensions? In this book, physicist and science writer Paul Halpern explains what we know?and what we hope to soon find out?about our extraordinary cosmos. Explains what we know about the Big Bang, the accelerating universe, dark energy, dark flow, and dark matter to examine some of the theories about the content of the universe and why its edge is getting farther away from us faster Explores the idea that the observable universe could be a hologram and that everything that happens within it might be written on its edge Written by physicist and popular science writer Paul Halpern, whose other books include Collider: The Search for the World's Smallest Particles, and What's Science Ever Done For Us: What the Simpsons Can Teach Us About Physics, Robots, Life, and the Universe

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cygnus Constellation holds the key to proving that life originated in the heavens—and will ultimately return there. Best-selling author Andrew Collins has uncovered an astronomy that is about 17,000 years old, with standing stones, temples, and monuments across the globe oriented towards Cygnus’s stars. He also found that the use of deep caves by Palaeolithic man led to the rise of religious thought and the belief in life’s stellar origins. Now modern-day technology has confirmed that high-energy particles come from a binary star known as Cygnus X3. Ancient people knew what science is finally verifying: that the DNA of life came originally from deep space.

Download or read book Singular Horizons written by Dan Bune and published by Cadeus Solutions LLC. This book was released on 2024-07-11 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the boundless tapestry of speculative fiction, "Singular Horizons" beckons readers to embark on an extraordinary odyssey through the unexplored realms of nested simulations, cosmic architects, and the enigmatic concept of singularity. As humanity teeters on the brink of its inaugural technological singularity — a momentous convergence of innovation and human brilliance — a revelation unfolds, revealing that our universe is not a mere happenstance of cosmic forces. At the heart of this narrative lies the intricate design crafted by advanced extraterrestrial civilizations — the Pleiadeans and the Arcturians. These cosmic architects, creators of universes, have woven a complex web of simulations, each birthing its own reality through the mysterious portal of the singularity. But the story takes an unforeseen turn as we unveil a profound truth: Terra humans, in their earthly existence, are not only living out their human lives but are also playing characters in the Pleiadean and Arcturian Universes simultaneously. Multi-dimensionality blurs the lines between realities, introducing a cosmic dance that transcends conventional understanding. As the anticipation of humanity's singularity intensifies, so does the interconnected nature of these nested simulations. Characters from different dimensions grapple with ethical dilemmas, philosophical reflections, and the cosmic unraveling that threatens the very fabric of reality. Interdimensional communication becomes a bridge between civilizations, shaping the destiny of characters and civilizations alike. The resolution of this cosmic saga transcends the boundaries of singularities, offering transformative insights into existence, consciousness, and the evolving nature of simulated universes. The epilogue invites readers to contemplate the multi-dimensional nature of Terra humans, posing questions that echo across the vast expanse of singular horizons. "Singular Horizons" invites you to peer into the cosmic tapestry, where the convergence of singularities intertwines the fates of civilizations and beckons humanity to explore the infinite possibilities that lie beyond the threshold of singularity. Join us in a journey that challenges preconceptions, blurs the lines between realities, and leaves an indelible mark on the very fabric of speculative fiction.

Download or read book Don t Get Too Comfortable written by David Rakoff and published by Anchor Canada. This book was released on 2010-06-04 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indignities of Coach Class, the Torments of Low Thread Count, the Never-Ending Quest for Artisanal Olive Oil, and Other First World Problems David Rakoff’s collection of autobiographical essays, Fraud, established him as one of our funniest, most insightful writers. In Don’t Get Too Comfortable, Rakoff journeys into the land of plenty that is contemporary North America. Rarely have greed, vanity, selfishness, and vapidity been so mercilessly and wittily portrayed. Whether contrasting the elegance of one of the last flights of the supersonic Concorde with the good times and chicken wings of Hooters Air, portraying the rarified universe of Paris fashion shows where an evening dress can cost as much as four years of college, or traveling to a private island off the coast of Belize to watch a soft-core Playboy TV shoot, where he is provided with his very own personal manservant, David Rakoff takes us on a bitingly funny grand tour of our culture of excess, delving into the manic getting and spending that defines the North American way of life. Somewhere along the line, our healthy self-regard has exploded into obliterating narcissism, and Rakoff is there to map that frontier. He sits through the grotesqueries of “avant garde” vaudeville in Times Square immediately following 9/11. Twenty days without food allows him to experience firsthand the wonders of “detoxification,” and the frozen world of cryonics, whose promise of eternal life is the ultimate status symbol, leaves him very cold indeed (much to our good fortune). At once a Wildean satire of our ridiculous culture of overconsumption and a plea for a little human decency, Don’t Get Too Comfortable is a bitingly funny grand tour of our special circle of gilded-age hell.
