A humid Friday night in a Brisbane pub. Ceiling fans useless. Footy on the TV with no sound. Adam’s already two pints in when Anna walks in with a grin and a couple more. She drops them onto the table so hard the foam nearly jumps out. Anna: Jesus, mate, you look like someone just… Continue reading A start again

Currency
If we don’t voluntarily realign currency with physical limits, physical limits will do it for us—brutally. Unsustainable currencies—fiat, debt-expanded monetary systems, petro-currencies—scale because they decouple from physical constraints. They borrow coherence from the future and call it “growth.” Three mechanical reasons: a) They’re amplitude multipliers, not coherence signals Debt + leverage + derivative layers create… Continue reading Currency

Part I — Universal Axioms of Information Dynamics I.1 Axiom of Animation*Matter became animate when information lifted loop-gain beyond unity.*¹ Existence precedes animation: the field and matter may persist in inert form when loop-gain remains below unity. In such conditions, perturbations decay and no pattern endures. Animation begins only when recursive information channels amplify perturbations… Continue reading 42
A field of infinity
Before anything began,the field was full—of infinite probability. It kept offering itselflike a coat no one had lost. Then,a slight nod—a wink of reality—and suddenly everythingpretended to make sense. The wave didn’t have facility,so it just went,maybe slightly left of center. One probability fell in lovewith a boundary condition.Another became a chair. Someone eventually asked,“Is… Continue reading A field of infinity
The Ballad of Smoke and Resonance
(Banjo type) They mined the ore from mountains high, they dredged the deepest seam,They fed the hungry furnaces that roared like some dark dream.The coal was ground to ashes, and the oil to choking flame,Each joule of heat was counted not as gift, but as a claim. The smelters sang like thunderclouds, the wires hummed… Continue reading The Ballad of Smoke and Resonance

From First Principle to Consciousness: An Information-Wave-Matrix Cosmology 1. First Principle: Information as Ontological Ground Existence begins not with matter or energy, but with information. Not information as data, but as pure distinction: the possibility of structure, of relation, of form. This informational substrate precedes time, space, and substance. It is the most fundamental level… Continue reading Busy day
All that glitters
Tribute to ABB Patterson Out where the ranges rise and roll,Where rivers carve the land,The quartz lies deep in granite veinsLike bones beneath the sand. It’s not by chance, nor idle whim,That crystals form so true—They’re born of fire and pressure’s gripAnd time’s relentless brew. But nestled in that stony heart,A fleck of gold may… Continue reading All that glitters
