17 Nov 2007 A Theory of Everything
![[Rant]](http://www.graxdomain.co.uk/images/site/Rant01.jpg)
I am a great believer of multiple dimensions of reality. The idea that there are several different universes in other dimensions with different versions of me seems very plausible. Kinda like Jet Li's The One, only without the bad soundtrack chosen by a nu-metal emo kid. I once read this article in the science magazine New Scientist which talked about the idea of time being purely a human perception. It gave an example of the frog's perception of time being a fraction slower than the fly's perception of time, therefore the frog missed the fly when it tried to eat it. I wish I could remember which issue it was because it was fascinating. Anyway there was a theory of reality in there which I would like to paraphrase and make into my own words:
"Anything and everything that is possible in life and reality happens all at once; time, space, matter, human emotions and choices, everything. This creates a kind of reality White Noise (much like the colour of white is the reflection of all light bouncing off an object, so too is the 'white light' of all possibilities).
"Human perception of reality is a series of still frames that goes in order, much like a Zoetrope. Therefore whenever someone makes a choice in life, or is guided down a particular path in life he is perceiving one set of snapshots of reality.
"This, in theory, can accommodate the idea of 'Free Will VS Predetermined Fate'. That is to say both can exist at the same time because everything has happened (past, present and future) at once, which covers fate, but mankind has the choice of perceiving one set of reality, hence the free will part."

I remember reading a comic, Marvel's Hyperion from Supreme Power fame in fact, and in it there was a character called Arcanna, of Squadron Supreme (Earth-31916) . She has the ability to perceive and influence parallel quantum dimensions, which is kinda similar to what I just said. Upon reading her Wiki entry I found this length page about Many-World interpretation. I have yet to read it due to it's sheer length, but I'm sure it's a fascinating read.
What do you guys think about all this?

Somehow i stumbled onto your page, i don't remember when or how, but i bookmarked it because i loved your writing style, it makes me feel like my thought processes have been captured in writing, but filtered through a different person. i've heard a lot of ideas about time being a perception that way, and did have an idea that children and adults perceive time differently, but i have never thought about animal interactions that way! so awesome. science magazines can be so fun. anyway, thanks for the good writing on the web.
