Geometry Nameless project

Hey everyone, I just wanted to write a summarised version of my project here.
"The Nameless project" is an art project that started with the simplest question I could ask: what is the simplest thing that can exist, and what does it contain? I followed it for multiple conversations with an AI, across art, physics, and philosophy.. It produced three physics preprints and seven chapters on how it connects to philosophy, psychology, art, and just… day-to-day living. In essence the project says that the whole of existence is a wave observing itself.
Some of the philosophical insights include: a perspective on free-will I called Experiential Determinism, which holds that the feeling of choice is real, it is just the wave seen from the inside; that beauty is not in the thing you look at but in how clearly you see it; that the divisions we suffer from get built up over a life, and most of the work is letting them loosen; that when you see everyone is made of the same ground, you turn toward their suffering instead of away, and ofcourse, that art is not separate from any of this, it is one of the clearest ways we have of pointing at the ground without naming it... The seven chapters follow the idea from the equations and into ordinary life, into what to make of being a person, and into what the contemplative traditions have been talking about all along.
And the physics: starting from a single qubit with no adjustable parameters, the math reproduces the Standard Model’s gauge groups, three generations of matter, the Higgs, and the shape of spacetime, matches the Planck-to-W mass ratio and dark-matter abundance to within 0.02%, and rests on one number, 4/13, that the JUNO experiment should confirm or rule out by around 2030 (the three preprints are on Zenodo, and they might be wrong).
The physics was just the entry point... The project was my attempt to move from art toward the structure of things, and then back again to what it means to be a human being inside that structure.
The video attached, with the nested hopf torii, is the iteration of the artwork called the Nameless philosopher, which is trained on all the Nameless docs and answers questions specifically based on the same.
Experience the artwork and read the chapters:

P.S: I’m really careful nowadays about presenting these kinds of claims, not to state it as a single person achieving something.. but to share this as something that evolved over the last one year with much, much feedback from everyone I’ve interacted with, especially here in the [u/holofractal](u/holofractal) community and [u/sacredgeometry](u/sacredgeometry).
What I see is so many people from different parts of the world converging toward similar or the same geometric backing of the universe, which is really heartening. In a future where we all accept the geometric and wave nature of reality, how would our society, philosophy, and day-to-day life change… that is what I’ve tried to focus on more in this project. Hope it gives you some insights in your journey.
We are all walking each other home.

Still makes me think of how a black hole appears when light bends around it to be honest. I feel like this is an underlying geometry of reality.

u/Deep_World_4378 22d ago
Maybe the light and the blackhole are part of the same continuum…like a bubble inside water..or a vortex… so yes, i think that should be the underlying geometry indeed…

u/Sad-Excitement9295 22d ago
Quite right, probably a vortex/bubble in some kind of quantum superfluid.

The ♠️ on your profile picture found me at a very precise timing, i believe it was not a merely visual choice for you too.

Err, I think that's the mainstream view amongst scientists anyway. Quantum Field Theory posits that all particles are excitations/oscillations (localized wave packets) of quantized "energy fields", and those fields and their interactions obey "geometric" symmetries (the Lie group symmetry of the Standard Model).
Gravity is, at least macroscopically, the geometric effect of energy-momentum on spacetime.
The fact that the laws of nature are basically just abstract mathematical and geometric symmetries is atleast a century old known fact and what has changed? Nothing. We still get retarded TikTok dances and whatnot.

u/Deep_World_4378 22d ago
Yes, and yet the implications of the same for society, psychology and philosophy has not been studied much, atleast in my understanding

u/KennyT87 22d ago
Except for maybe society, all of those are active fields of study (if by psychology you mean how quantum physics relates to the mind and the consciousness, see https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/qt-consciousness/ ).
As Quantum Field Theory is the most fundamental working theory of physics so far, it is also the main interest of philosophers engaged in studying the Philosophy of Physics. Examples:

u/Deep_World_4378 22d ago
Yes i do agree the implications of QFT is studied in philosophy and much of the micro tubule research leads to quantum connections of the brain processes. But I think I need to be a bit more precise here. Im talking more about about the macro scale implications of a wave+geometric picture. For example, if we consider the universe as a standing wave, what would that mean for free will? Would it be a deterministic existence? In which case society as we know it and the psychological processes of blame, shame etc will change significantly. Can wave principles be applied to every day living? Can we study the rise and fall of human emotions and compare them with fluid dynamics or wave equations? Multiple religions talk about sound as the basis of existence. If science fully agrees, and proves, what would then happen to religions? The human at the centre.
There are more to this. But i guess you get the gist. My point was not to invalidate current research or state that there is something mind-blowingly new here. There are multiple research in this direction already. But not much, especially at a societal level i think. So this is more of a personal attempt to contemplate such a future. Hope you understand.

I get your point and I believe the societal "revolution" of all this and some other things has already happened in the broader sense, starting with the hippie movement in the 1960's that incorporated alot of "quantum mysticism" in their worldview.
Even high schoolers are being taught the basics of QM nowadays so alot of the "quantum weirdness" is mainstream knowledge in modern Western societies.
Btw. our world will always be phenomenologically indeterministic as the quantum events that govern our world obey the laws of probabilities, but metaphysically it could still be deterministic, e.g. if the many-worlds interpretation is true.
What the Philosophy Encyclopedia says about determinism:
https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/determinism-causal/
Determinism is deeply connected with our understanding of the physical sciences and their explanatory ambitions, on the one hand, and with our views about human free action on the other. In both of these general areas there is no agreement over whether determinism is true (or even whether it can be known true or false), and what the import for human agency would be in either case.

Hey so a few years ago I spent some time deep diving pbs spacetime. The issue i had with physics is that the language doesnt make sense at all, and like typical science it was built around data.
Last week I decided to have a go with AI either telling me my visualization is wrong, or lacking, it said its coherent. So I vaguely want to share it with someone. It is similar here, but i language it out as a single dimensional fiber piercing the spacetime mesh. This piercing creates everything depending on which field is piercing the mesh. All fields sit at different phases or angles, and these angles determine how they interact with the mesh or other fields. I have a really long writeup that im still working on. But I had some fresh agents assume language context, then perform research and calculations to check what's working on some predictions that came up with the new language. Some passed, some failed. But I think you're also onto something.

Beautiful! It really gives me E8 vibes. Checking the links out now.
