Superchannel—Inside and Beyond Superstring
a baryon, they are three together and as meson they are two together both of which constitute
the hadron. There is something disturbing about all this as far as the space-excluding foundations
of the whole of physics is concerned.
At the first encounter, general relativity does not appear to exclude space but as soon
as it is confronted with the question of what it means for a form to flow, it lacks the answer
because things that move in general relativity remain as detached from space as in Newtonian
and quantum mechanics. The apple may fall into the receptive curvature of space rather
than be pulled down directly by a heavier weight as given by Newton but it is still as materially
detached from its spatial context as a billiard ball rolling around a rubber sheet.
Quarks do not come alone. They cannot be separated from what includes them. So if
quarks don’t come alone what happens when an attempt is made to separate them? They pull
away but still remain together. Imagine two things immersed in a pool of water. If you pull
them apart, they still remain pooled together by water, as if by glue. Now imagine space serving
the same role as water. In a way quarks are bringing the discrete atomic outlook into
question, suggesting that things are not as they appear superficially and that separateness is
an illusion because the deeper our enquiry reaches, the more we are confronted with the reality
of forms flowing into one another with space included. One wonders how people like
Heraclitus and Wordsworth could reach this understanding of the universe, which transcends
the foundations of classical and modern mathematics and the paradigms of physics without
any of the costly paraphernalia of modern laboratory science? Actually, in a way they were
at an advantage because without that paraphernalia and its accompanying mindset they were
free to enquire simply, as a child might. They could ask themselves questions like ‘what
would the universe look like if it was purely made of space’ and ‘what would it look like if it
was pure matter, containing no space’? Between the answers of formless and a dimensionless
point would come the realization that matter and space can’t be isolated from one a-
nother, but are instead combined in a cosmic dance of energy flow – dynamically transfiguring
space!
To embrace this fundamental truth, however, would mean to abandon the classical outlook,
remodel the relativity outlook and begin all over again the quantum journey in which
the discreteness of quantum is replaced by a distinct but not fully definable dynamic form
that harmonizes within instead of antagonizing its natural, omnipresent source. This is what
an inclusional and transfigural outlook both requires and offers. If this outlook is brought to
bear on the quantum world, quarks would no longer be points, which indeed they are not, but
dynamical forms that by their very nature include some positively responsive aspect within
some negatively receptive aspect. Here positive and negative are not the antagonistic opposites
of collision and exclusion, but the reciprocal complementarities of the communion and
natural inclusion of one in the other.
This brings us to Heraclitus again. Heraclitus' main teaching concerned the "unity of
opposites". Unity of opposites entails one thing being made of two sides which contain one
another in different levels. A day is composed of daytime and night-time in which one is
contained in the other through the day without exhausting it. Another example is the present,
which dynamically includes both past and future. We will return to this later when we explore
the fluid logic numbers of Transfigural Mathematics (TfM) and one of their zero spirals
called the zeroplines.
Now to our further exploration of strings:-
A string, being a discrete length, is of the form:
