Like all writers, I research and explore avenues of fact and fiction to create the worlds in my stories and bring people to life. This is just some of my Behind The Scenes work.
- Dark Matter, Tachyons? What’s that all about?
The theory that dark matter could be composed of tachyons is aspeculative idea in physics. Tachyons are hypothetical particles that, unlike normal matter, always travel faster than light. According to current understanding of physics, they violate the laws of causality and have yet to be observed. As for Dark matter,… - Evolution of Mathematical Awareness
Our brains inherent ability to find and utilize mathematical patterns provides a strong evolutionary advantage. On a more general level, understanding geometric relationships helps organisms navigate their environment, predict movements, and solve problems related to survival and reproduction. Natural selection would follow the same principles and favour brains that could… - Intelligence as an Emergent Property 2
We can only consider the possibility of biological neural structures as an emergent property based on what we currently know. Perhaps there are underlying forces or laws we are not aware of. Like for example, the discovery of quarks, the Higgs field and dark matter and dark energy. Neural structures… - Consciousness, Entropy and Negentropy
The tendency for order to arise in all aspects of biological and material existence (Terran and cosmological) that lead to possible life and intelligence might be a potential indication of a fundamental property Just as there is a fundamental law of Entropy, that, at the other end, there is a… - Intelligence as an Emergent Property 1
Intelligence as an Emergent Property.The fact that complex emotions are observed in various species beyond humans lends credence to the theory of emotions as emergent properties.Emergent properties arise from the complex interaction of simpler components. The whole system exhibits characteristics that none of the individual parts possess.In the context of… - Dark Matter Discussion with Gemini
Cloudtales: Is there a pattern to the distribution of galaxies where the effects of dark matter have been seen? Gemini: Yes, there is a strong correlation between the distribution of galaxies and the inferred presence of dark matter. Here’s how: These observations suggest a pattern:Dark matter is more concentrated in… - Dark matter and extra dimensions?
Extra dimensions could help explain the abundance of dark matter. The Standard Model of particle physics predicts that there should be much less dark matter than we actually observe. However, if dark matter particles live in extra dimensions, they could be much more abundant than expected. Extra dimensions could help… - Alice Bertha Clayden
Alice was the first woman to hold a senior rank in the police force, and paved the way for other women to join the detective branch. Alice was born in 1885 in Grantham, Lincolnshire, the daughter of a police inspector. Alice first worked as a teacher and a social worker.… - Glori
Gloria first appears in ‘The Mechanics’ she appears again in ‘Magic – Day One.’ Gloria a technorganic being one of a race evolved from a complex synthesis of metals, alloys, and organic matter. Their bodies can, over time, morph and adapt to survive and blend in to live on any… - Squats in Kings Cross in 1970’s
There were a lot of squats in the Kings Cross area in 1979. The area was in a state of decline at the time, with many abandoned buildings. This made it a prime target for squatters attracted by the cheap rent and the sense of community.Some of the most famous… - Kings Cross 1979.
King’s Cross in 1979 was a very different place than it is today. It was a run-down and neglected area, with many vacant buildings and empty lots. The station was dirty and overcrowded, and the surrounding streets were full of crime and poverty. The area had a long history of… - Zero-Point Energy
The Autonomous Intergalactic Consciousness Detection Device uses Zero-point energy. Julanan mechanics have successfully developed Zero-point generator/batteries that all come in the shape of cubes of various sizes right down to a sub-millimetre scale.Zero-point energy is the lowest possible energy a quantum mechanical, physical system may have. It’s a fundamental concept…
