The Devoid Hypothesis: Older version (v.0)

Introduction

The Devoid hypothesis is a different way to understand the ubiquitous nature of energy.
As it is still a work in progress, expect this to be very dynamic (as in, expect parts to be rewritten and expanded on as the science world expands and also depending on when I have time to write).
Some stuff that will be written about is as follows.
Why: the range of gravity is infinite; time is misunderstood; locality seems to be violated in the quantum world (it isn't); and why other stuff happens.
What are: quantum fluctuations; virtual particles; dark energy & dark matter; and other stuff.

Where did the hypothesis come from?
Some ideas have been lingering in my mind for a long time. They originate from the time I was trying to figure out why I perceive and process things slower than most.
It seems to have to do with thought processes that try to get as many possibilities as possible from a tiny bit of information. That is what kind of slows everything down. Since a young age, I was often confronted with my sluggishness. Not much has changed.

At some point, my thoughts about everything created a construct in my mind where all kinds of things happened. So I started looking at which of the constructs seemed to match with reality.
That is when I discovered the amazing road humanity had taken to figure a lot of it out. There was so much in my mind that aligned with what was already known about the essence of reality. During this search I learned about a lot of people and experiments.

Still, there seems to be a lot of missing stuff. There may be another way to look at it all, and that is what I will attempt to explain here. Before I did this, there were some scientists I tried to contact to iron out the details. No response yet, but it’s understandable as it appears like, here is someone who suddenly popped out of nowhere. (Update: since creating and sharing this website, there were some responses with useful insights.)
As I am mostly doing this alone, it’s still a very rocky road.

Here follows the most 'compressed' but at the same time the most 'plausible' and still 'understandable' version of how to explain the Devoid hypothesis.

It's not the whole thing yet, because Synchron, Neuralink nor Kernel have finished their 'brain-computer interface' (or BCI). Just kidding, I'm not waiting for a BCI, but it will be interesting when it works.

Devoid § 1

The Devoid hypothesis

It's nothing new to state that the universe is teeming with activity, and that only a very small part is visible to us.
The big difference here will be the way to understand how this can be. Instead of looking at the visible and trying to work it all out, there may be another way.
Humanity has come a long way in understanding how it all works. The fields of the biggest (Cosmology & General Relativity) and the smallest (Particle Physics & Quantum Mechanics) are at the edges of our understanding. It was logical to conclude that while looking at the smallest and looking at the furthest, there would be a point where it all becomes invisible, unless you can figure out a different way to look at it all. We will probably find new ways to expand our scope in those fields. But maybe we also need to look at it all in a new way to figure out new ways to expand it (our scope).
I think we have enough information to start looking at it all from a different angle.

**The invisible part**

Most activity happens at a resolution we can’t detect (yet). During one bit of this activity, every kind of energy, from the lightest to the very heavy, is temporarily created when energy interacts with itself. Some of this energy is already becoming matter and antimatter particles. Some of it annihilates and becomes other particles or energy again.
But some of this gets a bit heavier, but then collapses similar to the way a sun can collapse. (the infinities in the formulas are real)
All of this happens in an infinitesimally small amount of space and time.
If there is nothing much happening in the vicinity, this goes almost unnoticed.
That is what the quantum fluctuations are.

All the fields we know of (and the ones we still don't know of) are an emergent effect of energy's self interaction. But the chance that nothing more happens in this bit of activity is very small, as we have seen earlier that some annihilation causes some energy to interact again in a similar way. Almost the same happens, but now some heavy matter and antimatter particles get to interact with multiple other matter and antimatter particles. As there are bigger annihilations, there are also heavier particles forming, which can again collapse into a super-tiny collapsed sun. (not gonna use its popular name here yet, before some people start to panic for no reason)

At the same time, some of the heavier particles interact with others to form even heavier ones. And the annihilations in the vicinity cause them to accelerate, which causes new emergent effects.
This continues process causes some particles and antiparticles to very temporarily become visible.
That is what virtual particles are.

This all happens continuously and everywhere (yes, everywhere as in everywhere). If you look at your hand and imagine the space between the atoms, it happens there too. And it even happens throughout the atoms or anything else in existence or that you can imagine.
It’s ubiquitous.
That is what the invisible universe is.

**The visible part**

The buildup of what happened above and its emergent effects of energy interacting with itself are nothing compared to what happens next.
We will now look at some familiar matter. The part we know best, because we can see and touch most of it, emerges in a more complex way than the part we don't see, but it is very similar.
What we know about matter is important to keep in mind for this part. Now we will look at what happens in the 'invisible' part and add charges in the mix. People who know about spin can add that and other quantum stuff too, but without it, it's already pretty complicated.

As the whole quantum fluctuation and virtual particle stuff goes on, some regions will have many unstable particles and many stable ones. We tend to see stability as a border where, on one side, the particles are that exist too short to be accounted for as matter.
This part of the border was discovered when we started smashing particles together really hard.
That is what the 'particle zoo' is.

And on the other side, the particles that 'live' longer exist. The continuous interaction of energy with itself simultaneously creates the mutual existence of the leptons for example electrons and quarks, and forces for example photons, gluons, and gravity.
(more on leptons, quarks, and forces in another chapter)
That is what the elemental particles are.

If they were living things, we would call that a symbiotic relationship, but one where nobody gets to leave. They are however allowed to go wherever they want, as long as they don’t leave the system.
That is where the underlying mechanism that leads to the conservation laws comes from.

All of those particles are very important, and that is the level of existence from where our perceived reality is constantly being regenerated. There are all kinds of particles and combinations of particles in existence, but because of the very limited attention span of our senses and sensory equipment, we tend to only pay attention to the ones that are stable.
The synergy of all particle interactions eventually becomes the elements. And the chemical compositions are, in turn, the synergy of the elements.
That is what the elements and their chemical compositions (the molecules) are.

This can happen when the accumulations of these particles form pairs and get arranged in more stable combinations.
The buildup of everything that happened up until now causes matter to get created, of which some gets annihilated, which causes some to get accelerated. That causes some matter to accumulate and get heavier for some bigger annihilations, causing some bigger accelerations and bigger accumulations of matter (and all of that is happening simultaneously and includes antimatter). Matter is highly condensed energy.
That is what matter is.

Some of these very big accumulations of matter will be unstable and split into smaller ones, causing more matter and energy action. The process continues and now the accumulation and splitting of matter will cause more stable matter, but again some annihilating, some splitting and some collapsing.
That is what the visible universe is.

There's much more going on in the invisible universe than our sensors can currently detect.

Devoid § 2

**The 'mind- & space bending' part**

Some of those earlier mentioned very big particles will be stable, but at some point become too massive for their sizes and collapse into super-tiny black holes (finally, its popular name). These will evaporate matter into energy before you can say 'ah'. These virtual black holes are already a bit bigger, but still are unnoticeable to us, although this is going on everywhere. The interactions they have among each other and also between all previously described interactions of energy, quantum fluctuations, virtual particles and matter, eventually have various additional interesting emergent effects that happen everywhere. They even happen right before our eyes and within us.
That is what virtual black holes (also called Planck relics) are.

So as you can see (or rather not see), the visible and invisible universe interact right under, and throughout our noses. This happens because of the ubiquitous nature of energy. Emergent effects and the infinities at any point in space are there because of this. We don’t realize the existence of an unimaginable amount of fast matter evaporating virtual black holes that are all around us. They are even throughout us (yes, everywhere), We don’t realize their existence, because this all happens at a very tiny scale and in a very small amount of time constantly. But the effects become 'visible' when big regions of space collapse into themselves, as during a supernova, that can leave a very condensed form of the accumulations of these virtual black holes throughout space.

These all have additional direct and emergent effects among all the other previously mentioned phenomena. Everything is happening continuously. From the continuous interaction of energy with itself up until the merging of black holes. The formation of a black hole can be seen as the point when a force that we tend to call very weak actually wins over matter. (gravity will be 'looked at' in another section)
There are a huge number of undetectable black holes, a lot of incredibly large ones, and almost every size in between. Expect many more black holes "that should not exist" to be discovered in the future. Depending on their size, they either evaporate matter into energy extremely fast or for a very, very long time. (time will also be 'watched' in another section)
They are the infinities (in reality and in formulas) that most scientists seem to hate so much.
That is what black holes are.

Now the charge (and spin and other quantum stuff) part becomes more important. Although charge wasn’t mentioned in "The 'invisible' part", it doesn't mean it wasn't there. All interactions of pure energy start to happen way below Planck lengths, and this is what keeps us from detecting all of this directly.
While the process of energy interaction with itself goes on, the charges emerged. At the quantum level, it happens so much that they mostly cancel each other out. But at some regions where they don't cancel each other out, they can actually build up.
That is where the charges come from.

The charges are very weak at first, and continuous buildups make them much stronger. They are still unimaginably weak. But also keep in mind that the process of energy interacting with itself constantly everywhere is still ongoing. So even though there are buildups of charges now, newly emerging charges can still cause any of the effects mentioned earlier. Because of the continuous energy interaction, some even stronger regions of these buildups of charges will either repeatedly cancel each other out or build up even more at some points, causing some new emergent points of very strong charges. These are the charges that only have effect on extremely short distances. We call these effects forces, and because they seem like points to us, we sometimes see this effect as particles. Where the overlaps of these interactions are the highest, the interactions appear to us as the Quarks.
Those are what the strong force, the Gluon force carrying particles and the Quarks are.

So the charges are now very strong at short distances and form new synergies between each other. As those synergies are further and further apart, they will become weaker at some distance. But still keep in mind that even here, the process of energy interacting with itself constantly everywhere is still ongoing. So even though there are buildups of synergies of charges now, newly emerging charges can again still cause any of the effects mentioned earlier. This causes some new ways that the charges can behave, where now some are positive, some are negative and some cancel out becoming neutral. All of these are the charges that only have effect on short distances.
Those are what the weak force and the W & Z force carrying particles are.

The accumulations of the various buildups of charges on top of the continuous interaction of energy with itself causes bigger buildups of charges and forces that again will form new energy interactions, particles of matter, or all of the above. This causes more of all of the above and now even more emergent effects, of which some are new.

**The 'sophisticated' part**

Everything written up to now had mostly been derived from what is known about the universe, what experiments revealed up until now and what they are currently still revealing.

What all the previous parts were about, were here to place the setting in which the universe unfolds in a whole new perspective. Some of what has been described until now may have sounded like it is a description of the Big Bang theory. That is true, as it is very similar. This hypothesis doesn't try to change any current models. It just tries to give a different perspective of why all of it happens.

The continuous interaction of energy with itself is 'The Big Bang' happening over and over again everywhere continuously. Most of it is undetectable to us, because it happens below Planck scales. Although we are not aware of this happening ubiquitously and constantly, this is what keeps reality flowing.
On an activity scale from zero to infinity, observable reality is only in a very small section. This section has an upper and a lower limit.
The part closest to zero is around the point at which it seems like everything is almost stationary. We have a name for it.
That is what absolute zero is.

At this point, some charges (also with all other quantum stuff) and emergent effects suddenly change.
But because of the emergent effects that have already happened up until now, that point is not the same for every material. There are a lot of possible configurations of elements that can cause all kinds of effects. The way the interaction of energy with itself ends up influencing everything becomes a bit more pronounced now.
That means that based on the configurations of matter, the kinds of fields that there are, and the pressures involved, the real temperatures where this change happens will not be the same as absolute zero for everything.
This is why the temperatures or pressures this all happens can differ so much among the elements and also among complex combinations of the elements.
That is where the critical temperatures of the elements and of their chemical compositions comes from.

Where matter is almost stationary, so the temperatures are very low, the accumulation and emergent effects of energy interacting with itself leads to the most activity in these very dense regions. This means there is a lot more activity in the 'invisible part' as was described in an earlier section. And, although it seems to us like some charges suddenly disappeared, they actually became stronger below the scales we are familiar with. That is why magnetic fields can suddenly 'pin' stuff in thin air, why electricity can suddenly flow without resistance and why liquids can suddenly flow with zero viscosity.
Those are what superconductivity and superfluidity are.

Every other interaction happens in the regions where the propagation of everything mentioned about the interaction of energy with itself (especially of the photon) is lower or higher than the regions where electromagnetic-radiation detection is possible.
So everything propagating slower than absolute zero and everything propagating faster than the speed of light is basically invisible to the current state of our sensors and sensory equipment.
At these regions is where we will eventually find dark matter and dark energy.
That doesn't mean dark matter and dark energy are only there. Like everything else that occurred during the multiple interactions of energy with itself, they are also occurring constantly everywhere, but beyond a scale we can comfortably detect currently (January 2020).

There is much more I would like to write about. However, although this hypothesis has infinity at its core, I don’t have an infinite amount of time.

Most of the interactions described until now are at such a small scale that we see all those interactions as almost the same thing.
But there is a way to interpret it all differently without having to change current models. For example, by only adding the missing parts or a better understanding of why some models work only in some fields, but not in others. And also understanding why there are so many theories that appear to be correct in certain areas, and why some of them seem to be conflicting or don't seem compatible with each other.

If I only had more time (or a 'brain-computer interface' 🙂 ).

Seems like we've hit the bottom of the rocky road for now, but this is definitely not the end.

Devoid § 3

**The 'crazy' part**

Keep everything in mind that has been brought up in the previous chapters. Now replay it all multiple times continuously. You see us going from energy to matter and back again in countless ways. And it all has to do with deceleration and acceleration. We also see that the maximum speed we can observe in propagation of electromagnetism is the speed of light (electromagnetic radiation). That is how we can get to one of the most popular formulas ever imagined. But in its most popular form, relativistic effects at extremely high velocities, acceleration, and deceleration are ignored.
That is how the formula E=MC² could be derived.

While charges (and spin) cause the changes in acceleration and direction of energy (and matter), their effects beyond small scales adds up almost like factorial sequences. There are several ways this can be explained, and we haven’t yet come across an experiment that will help us pinpoint which explanation is the proper one for reality.

While charges in combination with spin tend to accelerate and send matter in a certain direction, it tends to accelerate and send antimatter in another direction.

It’s about velocity

The first interactions of energy with itself caused phenomena that at first propagate near infinite speeds. Extremely high speeds means extremely hot. That is why we see the early universe as very hot.
That is where part of the idea of the Big Bang theory comes from.

The buildups of these interactions and the buildups of the resulting phenomena caused those speeds to gradually decrease. That is how everything that is very hot, when left alone, always cools down and never seems to rise in temperature. At the same time, everything that is very cold will be warmed up.
That is where the underlying mechanism that leads to increasing entropy comes from.

It's about momentum

What we detect as being a photon is the excitation in a cross-section where there is an interaction of the photon during the propagation of electromagnetic radiation. When we observe (or measure), we cause an excitation in the region of the already ongoing interaction of what we are trying to detect on top of the ongoing interaction of energy at scales below the Planck length.
All of that happens at extremely high speeds, and that is where weird things can happen. The effects are however too small to have any measurable effects because of the low sensitivity of our current measuring equipment.
We can however sometimes detect what happens at the edges of these scales as anomaly’s at large distances or some randomness in a vacuum at small distances.
That is where the underlying mechanism that leads to the quantum measurement problem comes from.

The slowdown of the now propagating, interactions of energy with itself cause more interaction and therefore more buildup of particles causing more kinds of particles and their emergent effects. There are regions where these will overlap more than others. But some of these overlaps will cause a region of extreme slowdowns, and again this causes extreme buildups gradually until there is a fussy region where the overlap almost isn't possible anymore.
That is where the underlying mechanism that leads to the Pauli exclusion principle comes from and what fermions are.

The fussy regions where the overlap almost is not possible anymore are still being influenced by the whole story from the previous Devoid hypo sections. This causes all particles to appear as some kind of fussy cloud. And the regions where these gradual overlaps are the greatest is where we can "detect" the electron. The electron is any part of the cloud where additional gradual overlap ceases to be possible. What actually makes observing the electron possible is the fact that the observation itself (or the way sensors work) adds even more overlapping in the region where we are probing. So, when we detect the electron in a place, we can ignore the cloud part.
That is what the electron is and where the underlying mechanism that leads to the apparent collapse of the wave function comes from.

It’s about (emergent) time, we explain space

The first occurrence of energy interacting with itself is like a point that propagates in the form of a sphere. This infinitesimally small nudge is the moment space starts to be created. In this tiny space, the same occurs repeatedly, creating more of it.
That is what space is.

At the same moment the emergent effect called space is created, there is another emergent effect created from it simultaneously, where there is now a distance stuff can travel and a motion through space.
That is how (emergent) time emerges along with space.

That space is an emergent effect and time simultaneously emerges with space can be seen in the theory of relativity. And as a result, time and space are interwoven in an inverted kind of way.
That is how the formula of Special relativity could be derived and where the underlying mechanism that leads to space-time comes from.

Because of the vastness of the universe, this interwoven inverted relationship between space and time is almost unnoticeable to us except when measuring with extremely precise measuring equipment. The reason that the effects of it aren’t noticed at 'normal' speeds is because the space time relationship is very dependent on very high speeds, acceleration, and deceleration.
Before you get to extreme speeds, accelerations or decelerations, everything seems relatively normal.
To take changes in motion into account, General relativity was derived, and that is where the underlying mechanism that leads to curved space-time comes from.

For every measurement where time is involved, you will need space and time. And no matter what direction in space you go, time will emerge from it, whether you go forward or backward in space.
That is where the underlying mechanism that leads to the arrow of time comes from.

At the tiny instance before the interaction of energy with itself happens, infinite speed temporarily equals zero speed. This is where the first entanglement happens, and how everything else that follows is at that level equally entangled.
That is where quantum entanglement starts.

It’s all about resolution

If the interaction of energy with itself seems like a highly quantized event, why does it all look so analog at large scales? And why does the occurrence of these interactions appear particle like, while the propagation of these occurrences seems like waves?

Even though everything is basically made from the same particles, the resolution is so high that our senses can not discern what is really happening.
That is why reality doesn’t appear quantum in nature, while everything is made of quantifiable parts.
That is where the underlying mechanism that led to the particle like view of nature comes from, but is weirdly also why reductionism could seem like the way to go.

That particle like nature is the result of interactions between intermediate states of emergent effects during deceleration and acceleration. The changes are continuous or analog changes in velocity.
In some sense, our way of seeing the world as analog instead of quantum is how reality actually works on the most fundamental level and why it is not wrong to see it all as being very smooth. It is just that it is not the whole story.
That is where the underlying mechanism that led to the wave like view of nature comes from.

When taking a much closer look at how energy, particles or matter behave, it became apparent that it could be both wavelike and particle like in nature.
That is where the underlying mechanism that led to the wave-particle duality comes from, and why quantum could seem like the way to go.

There is of course much more we need to be aware of. First are the interactions themselves that interact. Then you have the emergent interactions that interact with the other interactions. And also the emergent interactions that can interact again with other emergent interactions or other fundamental interactions.
That is where the underlying mechanism that led to the emergent view of nature comes from, and why emergence could seem like the way to go.

At some point we have to realize that it is not one way or the other, but it is all of the above. That includes the effects between emergent interactions themselves, which also contribute massively to reality and are just as real as what we usually want to consider as (or believe to be) reality.

Now it’s up to the science people to leave everything intact that has already been proven and at the same time start rethinking the missing parts with all of this in mind.

Devoid § 4

**The 'insane' part**

As everything mentioned in earlier chapters happens repeatedly, so does the creation of space (and time) as mentioned in the previous chapter.

Why does gravity appear so weak compared to the other forces?

What makes gravity appear to be so much weaker than the other forces is that the interaction of energy with itself before there was space and time has been going on and is still going on. The more this happens, the more space is created, and this causes gravity to be spread out by the expansion of space itself (more on gravity in another chapter). The time scale on which this dilution occurs is so vast that from our point of view it seems almost unchanging.
That is the underlying mechanism that causes gravity to appear so weak, and where the underlying mechanism that led to the expansion of space comes from.

Why is the expansion of space accelerating?

As more and more and more space is created, there is more and more room for much more interactions of energy with itself. Below Planck scale, this causes a rapid expansion of space, but only where there is nothing else in that space above Planck scale to interact with. Because this happens at a scale where no electromagnetic radiation is emitted, this process is undetectable to us with our current detectors (2020). This is part of why we only see space more rapidly expanding at large distances, but can’t detect yet what’s causing it.
That is where the underlying mechanism that led to the acceleration of the expansion of space comes from, and what most of dark energy actually is.

**Why is there so much space (and past-time)?**

Because (in the beginning) there is nothing massive to interact with that would slow this process down, these interactions grow exponentially. And because there is exponentially more space being created during this, space itself grows even more exponentially along with it, wherever there’s nearly nothing with a mass.
And this also rapidly repeats while the fundamental form of energy still constantly keeps interacting ubiquitously. As the first level of confined energy grows exponentially, the regions in between still have fundamental energy interactions that cause more space (and time) to emerge, in turn causing more fundamental energy interactions causing much more space.
That is where the underlying mechanism that led to cosmic inflation comes from.

Un-puzzling the uniformity of the CMB

So now and then, there are some interactions of energy happening close to each other that cause virtual particles to appear in the quantum fluctuations as mentioned in an earlier chapter. Because these are nearly massless and very short-lived, space still continues to rapidly expand, but not as rapidly in these regions where there is some mass now. As the masses grow, they will eventually reach a point where they extend beyond the Planck scale, but until that point is reached, electromagnetic radiation is still not able to propagate. At the same time, the regions without these masses also keep on rapidly expanding.
All of this motion is causing yet another emergent form of energy we call heat, but at this level it remains mostly at its hottest form and opaque while, simultaneously, the earlier mentioned cosmic inflation is taking place.
That is the underlying mechanism that led to the cosmic microwave background appearing so uniform.

Un-puzzling the appearance of the cosmic web

What mass actually is will be weight in upon in another chapter. But these parts with mass will be the seeds where more and more mass will be grown until you get more and more matter.
And because the parts without mass still keep on rapidly expanding, there are vast spaces where there appears to be almost nothing with some regions where there is matter.
That is the underlying mechanism that led to the cosmic web looking the way it does.

It’s even weirder than we thought

Keep everything in mind that has been brought up in the previous chapters.
But we’ll take a step back for a moment.

When there’s only energy, there’s no space and time. Every interaction of energy with itself causes mass, space, and time. That is what causes an entangled state of everything, either massless or with mass. The way these interactions cause emergent interactions of energy which cause even more interactions, cause many kinds of entangled regions that are interacting with each other.
This is the underlying mechanism that led to every ’field theory’ in existence.

Uncertainty emerges from the large numbers of energy’s self interactions below Planck scale

As the chains of energy interacting with itself spreads out like three-dimensional ripples in a four dimensional pond (if we consider time as being the fourth dimension), there are multiple cross-sections of interaction that are moving along with it.
Every interaction causes pockets of energy and emergent properties. The pockets are confined energy and there are many levels of it along with emergence in between. The massive amounts of times this all happens below the Planck scale leads to most of the quantum world looking massively random. Our understanding of this will keep on being very cloudy until we better understand the mechanisms happening from inside and near the smallest black holes (also called virtual black holes and more recently Planck relics) up to the largest ones.
This is the underlying mechanism that led to ’the uncertainty principle’ and the so called ’Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics’.

Side note:
Why turbulence can’t be solved (yet)?
As some cloudiness of our understanding below the Planck scale extends into our understanding at the macro scale, turbulence will remain unsolvable. The problem with turbulence is that it extends the uncertainty emerging from large numbers of energy’s self interaction below the Planck scale into the macro scale. In order to get to the most accurate description of turbulence, we need to find out what happens below the Planck scale first. Until then, the randomness emerging from interactions below the Planck scale will keep us from truly solving turbulence.

Which leads us to other hard to explain stuff to be explained next

A very closely related phenomenon is superposition. But superposition also isn’t actually about physical objects. We can only observe superposition when we limit the amount of possible interactions in the entangled parts massively. When this isolation is done properly, distance doesn’t matter. But any change in this isolated state will make it appear like the entanglement between the parts ceases to exist. In reality, it actually became even more entangled, causing us to lose the ability to have an overview of what is entangled. (In a way, we became part of the superposition and entanglement again, and that is why we can’t see the previously isolated parts as isolated anymore.)
In reality, the underlying interaction of energy with itself as mentioned in the previous chapters causes the behavior of physical objects to appear spooky (regarding entanglement and superposition).
That is the underlying mechanism of a quantum-superposition, and why superposition and entanglement are so unstable at macro scales.

So any additional asymmetric ripples of interactions will cause a superposition to end, while at the same time everything in the universe is fundamentally still entangled. It just all appears to behave differently because it is currently not yet possible to see the bigger picture. Under the hood, it all is the interaction of the same energy with itself.
That is the underlying mechanism that leads to quantum-entanglement.

But quantum-entanglement and quantum-superposition aren’t spooky

Although looking at superposition and measuring entangled systems seems like there is some kind of action at a distance going on, the entangled parts are basically part of one (from our point of view very large) particle. This might sound a bit insane, but under the hood it is the interaction caused by the same energy interacting with itself. There are many levels of entanglement caused by this same interaction of energy. As mentioned in the previous chapters, energy is ubiquitous and continuously interacting with itself.
That is how entanglement makes it appear like faster than light (FTL) transfer of information is possible.

**Why can’t anything with mass (includes information) go FTL?**

While there is an entangled particle which fills the universe at the lowest level of confinement, the propagation of effects will have to go through all later levels of confinement, with the mentioned emergence also happening along the way. The levels of confinement (and emergence) to propagate through at the macro scale are so much that nothing with mass can ever exceed the maximum speed limit. If any mass were accelerated to that speed, it will lose any confinement and decay right back into energy. (more on that in the next chapter)

When we examine the microscale carefully, we will realize the speed limit is caused by the rate at which space (and time) emerge.

Devoid § 5

**The 'hardest' part**

We tend to think that everything needs to be conserved. According to most, that is a must for us to exist. It’s a must for existence. And we do our best to keep everything as conserved as possible.
That is why our first tries on the road to understand reality were governed by laws that have to obey conservation. It’s human nature to do our best to make sure that whatever explanation we come up with for reality, also makes (our) existence possible.

**Most (if not all) scientific laws are scale dependent

These laws were considered universal until we realized they are scale dependent. That is why the use of the word law in science is very uncommon these days. They can’t be called laws at every scale.
For example, the ‘law’ relating to gravity works at very large scale. Electromagnetism is closely related to gravity, but while gravity is easily observed at large scales, it is harder to do so for electromagnetism. And the hypothetical graviton is probably energy from the moment space came into existence. If the graviton exists, we will see it as a particle of an amount of energy we currently can’t create. This is why we can’t observe it as a particle yet. But this particle may actually be filling the universe.

The conservation laws and information paradox only appear at our level of reality**

Our urge to need to conserve stuff also eventually led to the so-called information paradox.
Although this is solvable, the idea that information can’t be lost is in the end another law that existence doesn’t really need. There are many interactions going on below a scale we can imagine from which existence emerges, and what exists is constantly being regenerated from there.
From our point of view, it never appears this way until we examine reality very closely. As energy interacts and gets confined multiple times, new interactions emerge. These cause new forms of confinement and new interactions multiple times until we get to our level of reality from which we derive what we currently know.
That is why the conservation laws and the information paradox appear the way they are.

The true nature of energy

At the level of energy the whole quantum information paradox evaporates, but it can still be, and will be, solved at the level of matter, which is a very condensed form of energy.
However, that’s not the way energy works at the fundamental level. There, energy exists devoid of space and time as we know it. This can sound strange to us, as space and time seem a necessity for existence. But energy doesn’t have that limitation at the fundamental level. It’s just energy.
It can’t stay in its pure form and keeps interacting with itself constantly, instantly causing confined energy, space and time. Confined energy has many levels and, mostly without realizing it, these have received a lot of naming schemes throughout humanity's history. The thing is we have always felt something is there, even in places there seems to be nothing.
Ultimately, everything is confined energy, whatever we name it.

What’s the matter before there’s matter?

The following will seem paradoxical, as at our level of confinement, we always need to add energy for anything to happen. When trying to figure this out from what we observe, down to the level of energy, we can’t add enough energy to get to the most early forms of confinement.
But energy itself is abundant, ubiquitous, and devoid of space and time before self interaction.
It is at the first interaction that energy confinement, space, and time emerge. The first level of confinement is kind of like splitting energy into two entangled regions.
This is the starting point of what later becomes matter and antimatter.

Splitting during energy interactions causes most symmetry

Up until now it is all still mostly energy interactions causing more and more confined entangled regions. All of these regions are very symmetrical. And although the interactions and forms of confinement become more and more complex, the splitting confined entangled regions keep on looking as mirror images of each other. If you want to see this in action, you would have to figure out how to probe what is happening beyond the Planck scale and beyond the electromagnetic region of the universe that is visible to us. Unfortunately, our current technology doesn’t have that capability yet (2020).
This is the underlying mechanism that led to symmetry and Noether’s theorem.

About invisible energy

As fundamental energy is still interacting everywhere, the regions between confined energy keep on causing more space and time to emerge and more confined energy (more on that later) to emerge. As mentioned earlier, this in turn causes exponentially more fundamental energy interactions and even more space and time to emerge. From our perspective, it looks like some form of energy is pushing things apart in regions where there seems to be nothing.
This is where the underlying mechanism of most of what we call dark energy comes from.

About invisible matter

The confined energy is also still interacting with other energy including itself, other confined energy and the underlying fundamental energy where everything originated from. All of this energy becomes more and more confined constantly at many levels until you get to very confined forms of energy like what we call matter. But long before we get to that level of confined energy, there are levels that don’t emit any electromagnetic radiation. We do notice it’s there, but we can’t detect it directly with our current sensory equipment.
This is where the underlying mechanism of most of what we call dark matter comes from.
_{(More on why better names for ‘dark energy’ and ‘dark matter’ will be ‘invisible energy’ and ‘invisible matter’ is coming up in chapter seven.)}

Math and statistics apply

The more confinement of energy there is forming in many levels, the more complicated the interactions become and the more phenomena emerge.
When stuff is this statistical, confined, massive in numbers and moves through space, we can easily put numbers to it, measure it and do calculations on it.
This is why the universe appears to be governed by mathematical physics and seems highly statistical.

And because it was the same energy that interacted causing everything to eventually emerge, all the mathematical formulas we come up with for explaining all kinds of seemingly different natural phenomena will point more and more to the same direction. The more we realize how to combine the formulas, the more accurate the descriptions of how it all works become.
This is why some scientists expect there to be a theory of everything.
_{(A better understanding of emergence is needed to get there.)}

However…

There is a pitfall most theories fall into. You see, the enormous amounts of data involved with natural phenomena make it possible to use mathematical trickery and still get highly accurate results. The problem with this is that what actually happens goes over our heads and leads to many possible explanations for how this all works.
That is the underlying mechanism that led to highly accurate theories that accurately predict most natural phenomena, but can’t explain (yet) why they happen as they do.

It’s not an actual multiverse

There will only be part of why this is mentioned here, as it is a very long story.
When there was the new understanding of quantum mechanics, people realized there was a lot going on and there were multiple possible outcomes at the same time. The quantum world is a world where anything that can happen actually happens. It all just happens so fast that we don’t consider that to be part of actual reality, as at the macro scale we always see only one outcome. The weird thing is that all outcomes are everywhere until there is an interaction (often called a measurement). This has been experimentally proven many times. Misunderstanding how many levels of confinement lead to many levels of entanglement led some people to incorrect conclusions. This caused some to theorize that the many other outcomes must have gone to other worlds or universes. It’s more like they are hidden below the Planck scale within the universe, because “There's plenty of room at the bottom” as a scientist once said.
Then there is the idea that the universe is finely tuned, and combined with the earlier mentioned ‘anything that can happen will happen’ from the quantum world, we get to many worlds with different possible outcomes.
Ultimately, it’s all one universe, even though there is a lot of it we don’t have access to.
That is some of the contexts where the ideas of the multiverse arose from.

About the age of the universe

The more we can observe, the more we can predict about the age of the universe. The current estimate is very accurate for the part of the universe we have access to, and that is huge.
It is not correct to suspect that the part we have access to actually is the entire universe. And it’s also not correct to suspect that the current estimated age is for the entire universe. What we are most familiar with is the electromagnetic part of the universe that can reach us. And most of it can’t reach us, as it recedes from us faster and faster due to the expansion of space.
The universe is way older and much larger than any current prediction (besides the ones mentioning infinity as an estimate).

Infinitely big? Maybe, maybe not.

The fact is that the universe beyond the boundary we have access to keeps on receding from us faster than the speed limit of the universe due to the expansion of space. At the same time, the bubble we have access to is shrinking due to that same expansion. But stating that the regions we don’t have access to are other universes doesn’t seem like the correct approach.
And why the several multiverse theories aren’t the correct approach can be deduced by realizing where most of these ideas arose from.
But in reality, it’s probably the amount of energy and its interactions that equals (or approaches) infinity. From our point of view, energy can exist beyond space and time. That sounds a lot like zero (energy) equals infinity (energy interaction or confinement).

_{We could state that there is a universe to explore below the Planck scale, but it’s all still in the same universe we are all part of.}

Fundamental energy interactions are constantly causing all levels of confinement and keep on reseeding existence constantly.

Devoid § 6

**The 'revealing' part**

The first level of energy’s self interaction causes confined energy with an attractive force. When viewed from a particle physics point of view, this is the first force carrying particle, and there might only be one. It also has a particle associated to it. (More on that later.) The amount of energy needed to recreate a similar particle is humongous.
This is the first and the strongest force (or one of the first and strongest forces) in the universe. The range is infinite, or rather “the entire universe”. Still, it is considered the weakest. That is a misunderstanding. To us, it appears to be the weakest. The reason is as follows (hints of this were already in the previous chapters):
At the first interaction of energy, the confined parts are attractive. The mediator of this attractive force is the first force carrying particle, with a mass similar to the energy of the first interaction. (This is an unimaginably large mass, and the amount of energy that ends up becoming the universe is a lot.)
As seen in previous Devoid chapters, from that same interaction space and time emerge simultaneously. This causes the earlier mentioned force carrying particle (and its associated particle, the graviton) to spread out. In the newly emerged space, the same occurs, spreading out that first force carrying particle even further. As this particle is spread out that much, the part we currently get to interact with is infinitesimally small, hence it appears to be the weakest force to us.
That is the underlying mechanism that lets us experience the force of gravity as weak.

**A 'New' form of matter**

The earlier mentioned forms of confinement aren’t considered matter, because those don’t interact in an electromechanical way. They are also much larger than we can imagine. And, because we only tend to think of matter as stuff that can’t pass through itself, we don’t realize it is everywhere.

Just as the first force carrier particle was being spread out resulting in the apparent weakness of gravity, there are some other kinds of particles being spread out similarly. This causes layers of huge particles that hardly interact. As later forms of confined energy pass through those layers, there are multiple parts of such a particle slightly interacting with it, causing us to detect a huge number of hard to explain particles in several groups (some of which can be seen in the standard model). And every particle in a group is highly identical.
Some of the particles that were created during the earliest energy interactions have been spread out so extremely that they hardly interact at all and are not affected by the exclusion principle. The wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation give a hint of the various sizes these ethereal particles can be, and there is no real size limit as they grow along with the expansion of the universe.
Although we hardly notice any of this, it becomes apparent at the extreme edges of general relativity and all throughout quantum mechanics. In a way, the extremely huge, hardly interacting particles are the missing link. They kind of are the hidden variables that make it appear like there is a collapse of the wave function, and spooky action at a distance.
There are huge particles that hardly interact, because they were extremely spread out by the expansion of space.

**A 'new' understanding of gravity**

As was mentioned in an earlier chapter, ultimately, everything is confined energy. The extreme levels of confinement that happen below the Planck scale causes mass with two parts that are similar to the parts of matter and antimatter.
(For lack of better words, they will be called matter and antimatter here, although these probably aren’t the kinds we are familiar with yet.)
The masses always have an attractive force, and these matter and antimatter parts are causing changes is space (and time). And the more confinement there is, the higher the masses are, which causes even more attractive forces and changes in space.
At this stage, most of the matter and antimatter gets back together and converts back into energy, causing repulsive forces pushing some matter and antimatter away from each other. While this is taking place, there is also still more energy interacting with itself, causing even more confined energy. When these get very high in mass, some collapse into virtual black holes, trapping a lot of matter (both matter and antimatter). Although these virtual black holes only exist for an unimaginably short moment of time, they do temporarily cause an extreme attractive force. While this is happening, they simultaneously evaporate into energy and the cycle continues.
This cycle creates a relatively stable field throughout the universe. Everything we know passes through it and, depending on the speed, gets to interact more or less with this field. It’s not really about the size of the stuff passing through it, but the amount of confined energy it contains.
The higher the amount of confined energy, the more interactions in that region, resulting in more attractive forces. It is the average of these forces throughout all the confined energy’s that causes the attractive forces between all the forms of confined energy. That is what we experience as gravity. And part of what we feel when accelerating is caused by the sudden increase in the amount of virtual black holes we get to interact with. And magnetism is analogous, but at a small scale.
That is where the underlying mechanism that led to the Higgs field comes from.

Understanding time dilation and length contraction

With the new understanding of gravity, we can repeat what was said in an earlier chapter about time and space, but let’s add time dilation and length contraction in the mix.
It all starts with energy interacting with itself. Everything we can observe, no matter how different it may appear, has energy as its origin. Matter is the most familiar form and also one of the most compressed forms of confined energy. As energy interacts with itself which causes space and time to emerge exponentially, some of the energy gets confined.
The confined forms of energy causes lesser space and time to emerge in those regions. Because the interaction of energy is also still going on there, there is more confinement of energy at multiple levels until it becomes what we call matter.
The more matter a region has, the more pronounced the lack of emergent space and time gets. This lack of space and time becomes more apparent at very high speeds, and in the direction of travel objects are shorter.
That is where one of the underlying mechanisms that lead to length contraction and time dilation comes from.

**Where did most of the antimatter go?**

While energy interactions are taking place, equal amounts of matter and antimatter are created, and they cancel each other out in a burst of energy. In the places where the amount of energy confinement is great enough to cause virtual black holes to form, not all matter and antimatter pairs get to cancel out. So, while both matter and antimatter are trapped in black holes, they cancel out, leaving most of only one type of matter ending up trapped inside the black holes.
The cycle where virtual black holes rapidly come in existence and evaporate out of existence is something that is continuously happening throughout space. That cycle will someday be observable, and a huge detector will not be necessary for that.
As the energy self-interactions are also going on throughout black holes, the emergent matter and antimatter keeps recombining into energy and virtual black holes again. This goes on throughout the black holes, but at the edge, some of that gets to leave the black holes in various forms of radiation. But most antimatter resides in all kinds of black holes.
And because we call what is on the outside (that part what we are very familiar with) ‘matter’, most of what stays behind in the virtual black holes throughout the universe is called the opposite, ‘anti-matter.’
Antimatter didn’t disappear, but is hidden in plain sight. Unfortunately, we can’t see the inside of black holes with our current sensory technology (2024).
That are some of the underlying mechanisms that led to the apparent lack of antimatter in the universe.

Let there be light.

What we know as light is actually the conversion of confined energy back to energy. Some examples of this are evaporating black holes or the recombination of matter and antimatter.
The earlier mentioned multiple cross-sections of interaction where pockets of various very dense forms of energy particles form, are at first moving at a distance so small that no detectable electromagnetic radiation is emitted. This mostly happens because it is being absorbed due to the high density of the confined energy particles created by the surrounding interactions.
As the space between these energy particles expands, the first familiar kinds of force carrying particles emerge (more on this in the next chapter).
When the distances become even greater, other configurations of energy confinement emerge, and it all begins to look a lot like what we are familiar with. This is how we go from energy to gravitation, through quantum chromodynamics and -electrodynamics to the electromagnetic universe and matter.
It was no accident that thinking about light led to great scientific advances throughout history.

If you are open-minded enough, you should by now have realized that it is the photon where it all starts. When the first energy confinement happens, it all behaves much like a photon that is trapped. We could have easily called the fundamental energy a photon.
But just as we needed names to make it easier to communicate about the elements, we did a similar thing with the photon. In the case of the elements, it would be hard to easily communicate about the reactions of the elements by only addressing them by proton number.
(It’s easier to say that iron interacting with oxygen forms rust.)
The interaction of the photon with itself at various levels of confinement makes it appear like there are several forces (or force carrying particles) that cause the existence of the particles that form matter.
As the first force carrying particle is spread out so much throughout the universe, we don’t recognize it as being a photon anymore. Because the way it interacts changes, we named it differently, like the gluon and the hypothetical graviton.
All forms of radiation are basically the recombination of matter and antimatter that converts them back into energy.

It can be difficult to look at what has already been relatively and reasonably understood for decades in a new and refreshing way, when current theories are already very accurate.
But it can also be revealing to understand existence in a new way, to trigger new ways of exploring reality.

Devoid § 7

**A 'new' understanding of existence

Curious person. 🙂
This part isn't quite ready yet.

Everything in the standard model of particle physics and beyond is actually multiple iterations of confined energy interacting amongst each other in several ways. And all of this keeps being regenerated from energy way below Planck scale, constantly interacting with itself. Most of these interactions are not visible to us, as they don’t emit any kind of radiation we can currently detect. Only when the accumulation of these interactions reach a certain amount and the emergent space reaches a certain size, electromagnetic radiation is emitted. This rarely happens, as there is much more empty space than there is stuff in space. What we perceive as reality is constantly passing through those iterations and, depending on the kinds of previous iterations that were already there, will either get more confined or less confined.
The confined energy caused by energy’s self interaction, the culmination of multiple iterations of that confined energy, and the synergy between all of it, is what ultimately led to existence.

A 'new' understanding of entanglement**

The previous chapter revealed a hypothetical “new” form of particles that are so spread out that they don’t interact in any currently detectable way. We do however notice their effects when we reduce the amount of interactions in a region of confinement in any form.
Some of these particles were created at the first interaction of energy’s self interaction, and are nearly as large as the universe. In a way, the idea that there are hidden variables wasn’t that far off, in contrary to what experiments are making us suspect. Anything in a superposition or entanglement is interacting directly with that layer of particles, so their state changes instantly, no matter the distance between them, because that doesn’t go through any higher levels of confined energy interactions.
Both the collapse of the wave function and the instantaneously measured result of particles in a superposition (no matter the distance between them) are caused by a particle that is much bigger than we ever would imagine, as mentioned in the previous chapter. However, while this happens instantaneously, the effects will still have to propagate through all levels of confinement that emerged after the particle (that has been extremely stretched by the expansion of space in the meantime) came into existence.
That is the underlying mechanism that lets us experience entanglement in a strange way.

**A 'new' understanding of time**

About the chronological vs. emergent vs. physical vs. biological vs. psychological vs…
There are a lot of forms of time, and that is part of what causes time to be a complex subject. What all the forms of time have in common, is change (or lack of change) itself. We have all kinds of mechanisms that deal with all of the different ways change can occur. But there’s more to time than that.
The kind of time we’re most familiar with is a construct that helps us to make accurate assumptions about occurrences. That is how we can get to the right place at the right time most of the time. This construct has been the reason behind most of the progress humanity has made. We will always have a love-hate relationship with time, but as most things it is neither good nor bad. It just is.
Because this form of time is basically an idea, some people tend to see time as imaginary, but as mentioned earlier, there’s more to time than that.
Anything you can think of, will automatically have time.

The thing about the cosmological constant

The cosmological constant is very interesting, in that it isn’t cosmological and might not even be a constant.
Although science is still not convinced of what it actually is, that what Einstein himself called his biggest blunder is indeed very real. So, here’s a hint at what is actually going on.
As the previous chapters explained, there is an abundance of energy interacting with itself constantly. This interaction causes confined energy, space, and time to emerge. As there is more space emerging there is more interaction of energy creating more confined energy, space and time. This rapid creation of space makes it look like a repellent force. Because this all happens beyond the Planck scale, it is invisible to us. That is why we should call it invisible energy. But, because we can’t see stuff in the dark that doesn’t emit any light, we called it dark energy.
The earlier mentioned energy interactions that cause confined energy are causing more confinement and heavier forms of confined energy. Because of the abundance of energy everywhere, these regions of confined energy can become very massive. (Some are even massive enough to contain enough mass below the Schwarzschild radius, to be a virtual black hole.) As this happens below the Planck scale, we don’t notice much of that, but virtual particles and virtual black holes are part of it.
As mentioned before, this is all invisible to us, so we should call it invisible matter. But again, because we can’t see anything in the absence of light, we went for dark and called it dark matter.
The cosmological constant, vacuum energy, most of dark energy, and most of dark matter are virtually the same (confined energy).

(Not?) About symmetry

Since the first interaction of energy that led to confinement, everything was and still is symmetrical. As we don’t yet have access to a bigger picture, we see symmetry breaking.
As larger and larger regions of the symmetrical particles move in different directions, they get to interact with other moving symmetrical regions in different ways. That causes some of the symmetrical parts to lose their symmetry. What emerges from those interactions appears to us as non-symmetrical entities (for lack of a better word for particles, forces and other stuff where we expected to find symmetry). Some of the regions where this occurs are so small that they are currently out of our reach. Other regions where it occurs are so large that they are currently also out of our reach.
Until we have better ways to explore the outer edges of size, at both the smallest and largest scales, we will not be able to observe that symmetry breaking isn’t a universal occurrence.
That is the underlying mechanism that let us to only observe symmetry breaking, but not the whole picture.

**Even ’The Big Bang’ is an ongoing process.**

If everything mentioned until now is understood at a deeper level, some may realize that the past event that is named the Big Bang didn’t actually start nor end, but is an ongoing process. This will remain this way for as long as energy interacts with itself (which is actually constantly happening below Planck scales).
Most (if not all) of these interactions happen below the Planck scale, and it all keeps on expanding. As the interactions cause more confined forms of energy, and as the expanding continues, it all grows past the Planck scale where most of the known forms of energy and confined energy emerge. That the Big Bang is still ongoing is mostly hidden to us by the vast amounts of interactions and confinement it takes to get to the tangible forms we call matter.
That is the underlying mechanism that hides the ongoing so called Big Bang.

’Black Holes’ and ‘Big Bang’ are each other’s reverse.

When any form of confinement is compressed below the Schwarzschild radius, the reverse of the Big Bang happens. This can happen at any scale, and is continuously happening everywhere. The speed at which this happens is from unimaginably fast at small scales to unbelievably slow at large scales.

Still have to write this.
(Everything moves at the speed of 'c’)

About infinities
Most of the time, infinities are regions where the interactions of energy with itself are causing emergent effects.

_{What did you think of the Devoid hypothesis so far?}
_{Let me know via the contact form.}

All of energies self interaction is creating, fueling and refueling all of existence all the time, while simultaneously creating all off time in the process.
We are all borrowing our existence from the same source, so why not make the best of it together?

Devoid § 8

‘Beyond’ existence

Curious person.🙂 This part isn't quite ready yet.

As we have come this far into the Devoid hypothesis, we reach the maximum and minimum limits of what is possible electro-mechanically. Those limits are absolute zero and the speed of massless particles.
For us, that is existence. Beyond that, it all becomes a bit fussy, as the smaller you go, the more entangled everything is.
There is a region so small where the interaction of energy with itself instantly creates a black hole that immediately evaporates into energy again. Even time and space are very different at that infinitesimally tiny scale, as they didn’t get enough ‘time’ to emerge properly there yet. And all the interactions at that scale are so massively entangled that when it reaches the scales we can detect, all particles appear to be the same to us.
That is the underlying mechanism that led to the groupings of fundamental particles (in particle physics) and how it is that every particle per group is identical.

As everything mentioned above causes multiple levels of confinement, there are certain regions that are stable. These stable confinement levels are caused when the sizes and masses are divided, causing lighter versions of the heavier forms of relatively stable confinement. The most stable of these are the building blocks of matter as we know it today. Every heavy form will decay into more stable, lighter forms as long as they are stable enough.
That is the underlying mechanism that led to the apparent repetition in sizes and masses of some fundamental particles.

So beyond existence, weird things can happen that are currently a bit harder to figure out scientifically. It’s a fussy region where a massive amount of energy exists that is still beyond space and time just before it gets to interact.
And then this interacting energy causes everything described in previous Devoid chapters to happen at an unbelievable scale. This means that a large amount of energy confinement already takes place way below Planck scale. The interactions amongst those causes a lot of different particles and other emergent phenomena.

Because of the complexity that emergence can bring, there is a whole separate body of work for that, as it starts to become even less probe-able scientifically. So to continue, we need to leave Devoid and enter Elute. Visit elute.me to explore that part. That may be a doorway to the realm of the emergence of life, consciousness and even spirituality, and these may someday also become a region we can probe scientifically.

(Big) Closing statement

As we have seen through Devoid, everything in existence has the same origin. Everything originated from energy. Energy does only one thing. It interacts. That is very simplistic.
So, from multiple iterations of energy’s simplicity, a large range of complexity emerges. Most of that emergent complexity is not stable (from our point of view), but it all maintains the stable forms of complexity we are familiar with. Then, from multiple iterations of all of that simplicity and complexity, other types of simple and complex interactions emerge.
The multiple iterations of that interaction and confinement lead to large networks of interactions and confinement (at multiple scales).
And again, multiple iterations of simplistic networks become complex. Some of those emerging networks can create novel networks as long as the underlying energy keeps on being fueled. That’s a simple form of replication.
From all of the above, more complex forms of all of the above emerges, including more complex forms of replication. Eventually, those in turn cause novel kinds of interactions and confinement, until at some point it all seems very ethereal. The emergence of life is one of those points. There, multiple iterations of the earlier mentioned more complex self replicating networks became even more complex. Those are the simple forms that became the building blocks for the complex forms. As that complexity went through multiple iterations, even more ethereal forms of complexity emerged. And once again, multiple iterations of that eventually let to consciousness. Multiple iterations of all of the above let to self awareness.

Now that this is going beyond what we can currently come up with, what is barely known, or currently barely knowable, we reach a point where most would slow down and end with the following famous words: “God only knows.”
I prefer to end with quoting Newton so we can continue on this journey together: “I leave it to the consideration of the reader.”

What we can know for sure is that the next generation of great thinkers will continue where the previous generation gets a bit stuck. And they often end up working together.
I don’t consider myself a great thinker. I just found a great stack of cards that was already placed there from great thinkers throughout history and continues to be added to.
All I did here is reshuffle the deck a bit to trigger new viewpoints for it all.

_{This page is not ready, but here we are. How did you end up here anyway?}
_{Let me know via the contact form.}

All we need to do is "raise our awareness".
The more we are aware that everything in existence has the same origin, the more we will become one within existence.

Congratulations, we have reached the end of our journey into Devoid. Curious as to what's up next? #MeToo! 🙂
Hope it can Elute us.
