Dead universes

Consider a universe with m spatial dimensions and n time dimensions. These universes are classified as (w + ) universes. For example, our universe could be a (3 + 1) universe with three spatial dimensions and one dimension of time. Max Tegmatk of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, suggests that all universes—except for a (3 + 1) dimensional universe—may be dead universes in the sense that they are devoid of observers. He believes that higher-dimensional spaces cannot contain traditional atoms or perhaps any stable structures. In a space with less than three dimensions, there may be no gravitational force. In universes with more or less than one time dimension, living creatures could not make predictions. These ideas are so fascinating that I would like to explain them just a bit further. [Pg.203]

As a brief aside, we note that many chemical reactions are similarly kinetically rather than thermodynamically controlled [72-77], in like manner as Eq. (8). While only chemical reactions are discussed in Refs. [72-77], the same principle likewise applies with respect to all kinetically rather than thermodynamically controlled processes, for example kinetically rather than thermodynamically controlled physical and nuclear reactions. As we discussed in Sect. 4 if nuclear reactions were thermodynamically rather than kinetically controlled then there would be nothing but (iron + equilibrium blackbody radiation) — an iron-dead Universe. [Pg.246]

The human micro-psi perceiver is here a hybrid object. The site of interchange between the human and the porous material universe is itself a hybrid, one that was emerging in the cultural imagination of late-nineteenth-century modernity. That period s technological innovations, particularly the telegraph and telephone, weakened the boundaries between human minds and suggested to some the viability of occult concepts such as telepathy and communication with the dead. As Pamela Thurschwell notes,... [Pg.74]

My root teacher once said, In Qabalah, God is the only authority, all else is advice. We do not escape the consequences of our actions because some authority—living, dead, or fictitious—tells us to do something.

BioEnviroTech, Inc., is a supplier of bacterial products based upon natural saprophytic (those that digest only dead organic matter) and facultative (those that can modify their metabolism to live in the presence of free oxygen and with exposure to sunlight) bacteria for bioremediation. The technology is commercially available and has been tested by the National Environmental Technology Applications Center (NETAC) of the University of Pittsburgh Applied Research Center. [Pg.398]
