• "As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain, and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality."

  • -- Albert Einstein

Founding assumtions:

• The universe is an evolutionary process. There have been many universes before this one, of which this one is a modified pattern.
• Being evolutionary, patterns that are the best at surviving survive. That is the only real law. Stability is persistence.
• The universe's structure is its function. Structures exist because they have a function, otherwise they are discarded since it's easier to for patterns to survive if they are less complex. (Sometimes, of course, useless structures will stick around for a little bit before they get evolved out. But in the long run, useless structures go away.)
• Since the universe is setup to support life, life must be part of the universe's function.
• Life is an apperture through which the universe observes itself.
• The universe needs life to observe itself and make intelligent modifications.
• The power of intelligence is in its imprecision. If intelligence was completely precise, it would only see what exists. Because it makes mistakes, it can see things that don't exist. Imagination is what creates new things in the universe.
• The beauty of the universe is that it is a quantum system which can observe itself as smooth.
• Mathematics is like a waveform in a quantum field. It is an overall approximation of trillions of tiny particles all obeying a simple rule.
