The Philosophy of Fractals Quotes

“When guns came into existence, so too did the natural right to a fair and reasonable defense against them.”
― Rick Delmonico, The Philosophy of Fractals

“With entanglement each particle creates one hemisphere of a growing sphere (two dimensional sheet), if the particle has spin, the entire sphere is spinning and an interruption at one pole of the sphere instantly affects the other pole.”
― Rick Delmonico, The Philosophy of Fractals

“Foundational Principles:
Nature is lazy, it likes to copy.
Everything is information.
Information is not stuff, it is relationships.
All behaviors are constrained by relationships.
All behaviors are emergent.
Every engine takes advantage of a difference.
Everything is an approximation of something else.
Ratio may be the only thing that is discrete.
The bending of spacetime is a variation of scale.
Behavior is built from a quantum of action in a field.
If dimensions are virtual in the same way that the dimensions of consciousness are virtual then the density of information in a field will affect the scale or bending of spacetime.
Gravity and scale are related.
Gravity and information are related.
Information and scale are related.
If it's relational, there's a geometry involved.
Truth as a scale coordinate; truth lives in the macro world, the micro world is uncertain.
Truth as a time coordinate; truth lives in the past, the future is uncertain.
Information from the micro future is formed into a macro past.
The process of formation involves entanglement. Coffee and cream;
1) separate,
2) complex,
3) homogeneous.
Information appears to increase and then decrease.”

“A particular behavior moves through a system in the same way as cars move on the roadways. On the interstate, you have a large macro motion followed by main roads connecting cities and the smaller roads connecting towns and tract streets or dirt roads. As a fractal structure, the dimensions of some fields are like the interstate (think Sierpinski gasket), where one path goes a great distance and another one is very short, and when you add self organization to the mix, these behaviors begin to exhibit distinctions and influences of greater and greater complexity moving into deeper and finer levels.
Think of each dimension as a particular path on the fractal.”

“A photon at rest has no mass (no mass, no energy) and at the speed of light all of the energy is stored as a change over time and distance traveled, in other words, frequency. Does the photon disappear when it is absorbed by the electron? This would not make sense, we are not talking about particles. The scientist has not figured out that the measurement has become more real than the thing being measured.”

“When the unsophisticated agents begin disrupting the system to the point of collapsing the system or destroying the integrity, they must be taken out. Sophisticated agents enhance the health of the system so by definition, any excessive turbulence is unhealthy and must be scrutinized. A well designed system is self correcting with turbulence that is minimal and brief. We should be relying on our best citizens for guidance and they must possess and exercise a strong fiduciary commitment. Secrets always prevent the possibility of making our leaders accountable.”

“Where does scale come from? Scale is nature repeating the same step over and over. Complexity increases over time. The more complexity, the more information. The idea of virtual dimensions is that action, in relation to it's source, chooses a direction and depending on the action, creates the path it travels through, there is no empty stage that was there before the action. When a photon takes off in some particular direction a two dimensional virtual sheet is created for the wave to travel through. An interruption can create a one dimensional time-like line perpendicular to the sheet (the collapse of the wave function) to occur. The motion is transferred from these various virtual dimensions in discrete or quantum-like ratios. All of the relationships are discrete but not necessarily the scale. The curvature of space and time are variations of scale.”

“Nothing can be completely described because of levels of description. No matter how much information we use to describe a tree, it will always be incomplete. The only complete description of the tree is the tree itself. We can always add more, no question, because there is the life cycle of the tree and the context in which the tree resides until we have included everything, whatever that means.”
― Rick Delmonico, The Philosophy of Fractals

“If our material reality is some form of interface and there is another underlying geometry involved, how would we notice it? I think, levels of description in information theory or something along those line would be useful.
Entanglement suggest some form of awareness. With humans, we are in a sense, entangled by intimate disclosure and shared experience. The information becomes shared, to some degree of resolution.”
― Rick Delmonico, The Philosophy of Fractals

“We are not talking about waves or particles, what we are talking about is a quantum of action in a field. This thing we call a particle is a quantum of action that becomes more focused by a process we have not described and this thing we call a wave is the potential in the field. How can a wave be quantized? The wave is a precise ratio of potential.”
