2010-"Brooks (Base) Square (BS): The Architecture of Space-Time (TAOST) and The Conspicuous Absence of Primes (TCAOP) -the complete work (Rules 1-177)
The table of numbers that, while excluding the *prime numbers ... and only the *prime numbers ... reveals the number patterns that are primary ... primordial ... to the structure of the Universe. This primordial matrix defines the Inverse Square Law (ISL) that informs gravity, light (electromagnetism) and atomic structure ... the underpinnings of that which we see as the observable Universe. It is the architecture of space-time itself ... that which ultimately informs ... that is, reveals its disposition that in turn presents the physical laws, and their expression, of light, gravity and the structure of matter ... that fundamentally defines the true structure of the Universe ... seen and unseen ... encompassing all matter (light and dark) and all energy (light and dark). The ISL is a key relationship describing the interplay of space and time. It is postulated here that the true underpinnings of space-time itself are inherently defined by numerical relationships ... numbers ... the numbers of Brooks (Base) Square (BS).
2009-"GoMAS: The Geometry of Music, Art and Structure ...linking science, art and esthetics" ~ That simple geometric principles can be responsible for the manifestation of the multitudes of beauty, diversity and richness of Nature is further supported here in this paper. The Inverse-Square-Law (ISL), a simple geometric principle, is shown to be the common link between physics, chemistry, biology, and the science and esthetics of music and art. Nature has incorporated the ISL as the major game rule to building the cosmos. Our perception of pleasing form, color and sound is prophetically built into our sensory being, our biologic evolution, and our structural past.
2008- "The Conservation of SpaceTime ~The role of the Higgs, graviton and photon bosons in defining Dark Matter = Dark Energy (the inverse of) ~
2008-"Quantum Gravity ...by the book" ~Merging Quantum Mechanics with Gravity~ a simple, non-mathematical insight.
2007-"The History of the Universe - update - 'The Big Void'" ~A short, update supplement to "Dark Matter = Dark Energy (the inverse of): The Conservation of Spacetime by The Conservation of Force" and "The History of the Universe in Scalar Graphics."
2006-"The Butterfly Prime Determinant Number Array (DNA)~conspicuous abstinence~". ~The role of the highly ordered positive space pattern of the odd non-primes in revealing the reverse, negative space pattern of the primes as a determined number array is revealed.
-"The Butterfly Prime Directive ... ~metamorphosis~". ~There is a logic behind the ordered and predictable pattern of prime numbers.
2005- "Butterfly Primes ... let the beauty seep in". ~An ordered and predictable pattern for the prime numbers emerges.
-"The LUFE Matrix: E=mc2 ... and then some". The focus is on energy. From Einstein's initial insight into the transformation between mass and energy, we now have a large number of similar transformations between energy and the other fundamental parameters of matter ... i.e., charge and spin ... and their activities within their space-time environments such as velocity and acceleration, frequency and temperature, momentum, pressure and force, potential difference, heat and work, etc.
