Sounds like an interesting read. I've had thoughts similar to this in that perhaps matter is analgous to some of the consciousness theories the AI folks are discussing. If a system becomes complex enough consciousness just happens. Perhaps Buddha was right matter = consciousness.

This is what Jesse is more or less been theorizing on. Its puzzling to say the least. By E=Mc^2 Photons have mass in the same breath anything traveling the speed of light has infinite mass. I'm starting to think what Jesse has been describing is ether and not really photons. See the link...

Why would you try to travel a physical distance in order to travel in time? Time is not a physical dimension. The reason it is suggested to travel at the speed of light is because time becomes unstable at the that instant allowing an entry point to the time dimension. a tear in the thread...

Jesse, Sorry to leave you hangin. I've been extraoridinarily busy lately. Its landscaping season and work was heating for a minute. I'm not sure what you're asking me here so could you rephrase. Its 90 billion km^2/s^2, which is not a speed. So nothing would move that fast. Well never say...

Yeah sorry, I am engineer so I tend to be grounded in reality.

The frequencies would be dependent on the amount of energy released by the electrons. If you a bunch of electrons at different energy states wallah. I'm not following how the quadractic fits in here?

You're absolutely right. Its pretty tough to prove a photon has zero energy at rest.

Photons have mass, which is frequency dependent. The only the don't have mass is when they are at rest, which they never are.

What you are describing is a mechanical longitudinal wave, sound is a spherical longitudinal pressure wave. Light is not longitudinal it is a transverse EM wave. The term for what you are describing is diffraction. Where we are getting hung up is not the mechanics of wave theory, but the...

I don't disagree with you, light is everywhere, but do you believe that photons do not move and have zero velocity?

Not really :) Because the way I'm reading Jessebonin statement is that light is not in transit, which makes no sense in my mind. The very directional nature of shadows suggests light is coming from a source and can be blocked or redirected causing a shadow. (Standard Physical Model) I'm...
