How do the Mobius and Klein models illuminate string theory?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the creation of a speculative fiction TV series set in a parallel universe where patriarchy was eliminated over 4,000 years ago. The narrative explores a world governed by women, characterized by the absence of war and a unique anarchic structure, while being under the divine guidance of a female deity named DAMATAR. The writer seeks to ensure the world feels credible and realistic, particularly in terms of scientific and technological advancements that would result from a prolonged period without conflict. The exploration of multiverses is a key theme, with a focus on how this alternate reality compares to our own, emphasizing the potential benefits of a society that has avoided the pitfalls of war. The writer also references Rene Hirsch's book "Masculine Civilization" as a source of inspiration for the project.

I'm a speculative fiction writer and playwright, a retired archirect with a master of architecture degree in theory, and a theater producer, director, and acting improvisor. I'm currently working on a TV series of 169 episodes exploring life in a contemporary parallel universe very much like our own, but in which patriarchy was successfully squelched by womankind over 4000 years ago. I would appteciate anyone's help in making this world credible and realistic.

:welcome:

Hello and welcome! My suggestion is to create a thread in our Sci-Fi Writers forum: https://www.physicsforums.com/forums/writing-and-world-building.220/

However, the plot shouldn't be too complicated as there are existing matriarchies on Earth to study, plus the fact that our current reproduction technologies don't really need men anymore sooner or later, presumably sooner. I haven't the details in mind and only remember I've read something about it, but it should be possible to find such articles.
 
Thanks for finding the correct PF forum and placing me there.

My focus will be on the concept of selecting from an an infinite number of multiverses to tell my story. It will tell of a parallel universe to our own in which humankind over the last 5,000 years or so managed to subdue and ultimately end "Man" kind's attempts to subvert control of the destiny of humans by sheer force of will. So as I say, "Patriarchy" never happened.

How would a qualified quantum physicist view the day-to-day realities of such a world? As commonto our own as it may seem, what sorts of pitfalls am I likely to fall into being merely a quantum physics layman.

Examples:
Over 4,000 or so years all war has been effectively abolished by the "Anarchic" governing structure under the guidance of women.

And that is to say that no "Matriarchy" has been allowed to establish itself either.

Effectively the planet has been run as a "Theocracy" for at least three millennia under the divine rule of "God"... a female deity whom I call DAMATAR.

So one concern I have is regarding the waste of human potential that war represents. Scientific and technilogicalprogress to mention just twoaspects of civilized advancement, must be as much as a millennia --- perhaps much more --- advanced than our own in such a "War-Free" world.

What does this do to my exploration of a "parallel" universe? Frankly I'm more interested in how our own times would be so muchimproved than a world which has moved at least a millennium beyond the wildest dreams of our own. Fascinating as this might be it is not my purpose.

As a resource let me refer anyone interested in all this to Rene Hirsch's brilliant book MASCULINE CIVILIZATION, which is where I have drawn some key aspects of the inspiration for my story. It is available on Amazon Kindle.

Thread 'Are Clone Ships a Better Alternative for Space Colonization?'

We've just had an interesting thread about generation ships, but I don't think that that is the most reasonable way to colonize another planet. Fatal problems: - Crew may become chaotic and self destructive. - Crew may become so adapted to space as to be unwilling to return to a planet. - Making the planet habitable may take longer then the trip, so the ship needs to last far longer than just the journey. - Mid-flight malfunction may render the ship unable to decelerate at the destination...

Thread 'AI Consciousness?'

I know this topic is extremely contraversial and debated, but I'm writing a book where an AI attempts to become as human as possible. Would it, eventually, especially in the far future, be possible for an AI to gain a conscious? To be clear, my definition of a consciousness being the ability to possess self-created morals, thoughts, and views, AKA a whole personality. And if this is possible (and let's just say it is for this question), about how long may it take for something to happen...

Thread 'Red Dwarf Star Systems -- Could they support life?'

This is a question for people who know about astrophysics. It's been said that the habitable zones around red dwarf stars are so close to those stars that any planets in the zones would be tidally locked to the stars in question. With one side roasting and another side freezing almost forever, those planets wouldn't be hospitable to life. a) Could there be forms of life--whole ecologies--that first evolve in the planet's twilight zone and then extend their habitat by burrowing...
