A birds-eye view of quantum mechanics, relativity, computing, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence raises the possibility of using mathematics to implement a wide variety of ideas including Leibniz's Monadology and Greek Monism for the first time in history.

Particularly how the mind works into things.
As far as I can tell, the "hard problem" of explaining the mind from its neurobiological basis is eliminated.
You'll need to read the paper to get more of the idea.

The paper itself makes no reference to the hard problem.
It takes a different approach, one that is counter intuitive to the current science.
You should really read it.
It's only a couple pages long.

What is it > that creates a distiction worth the difference with this idea of yours? Good question. It took me some time to answer it appropriately.
Here's part of the conclusion in the updated version of the paper:
"The goal worked toward by such a team is a purely mathematical expression of nature and the mind that until now has only been expressed as a combination of mathematics, language, philosophy, and art.
For example, string theory and brane mechanics both posit hidden dimensions and visible dimensions. But the variables representing all the dimensions belong to the same physical resource (the computer, or the paper, or the scientist's head, ect.). We are using language to express what is going on in the mathematics by saying "these variables are hidden, and these variables are visible."
In the steps described by this paper, mathematics alone expresses two sets of information and distinguishes them from each other by storing them in two different types of resources."

Your welcome to prove me wrong by computing the fine structure of Hydrogen's spectrum using your program, though.

Androcles - 12 Dec 2007 13:16 GMT : > Atomic shells don't have funny shapes. They are spherical. : : The 'shell' is a statistical likelihood of shape at any instant, a metaphor, : a mnemonic. Yes indeed, and most molecules are not spherical either. It would conceivable to describe the hundreds of artificial satellites currently in orbit about the Earth as a "shell", but spherical? Not when most of them are in elliptical orbits.

I posted new steps based on information science and neuroscience to develop a new class of hypotheses.
A theory is quite a ways off, especially if I have to do it all myself.

It seems Robert Lanza's bio-centric theory of the universe seems to fit into this new framework.
I don't think any of the statements made in the paper are all that controversial.

I'm yet to see you compute _anything_ a first year physics student can do as homework.

Do you think I could get into a college?
I don't have much for money.
