Absolute physical reality is measured by laboratory
clocks and rulers. This reality is seen by the "physics observer" which is actually an inanimate lattice of clocks and rulers which record everything. The "laws of Physics" obey these recorded observations. According to these measurements there exists a Relativistic metric given by: ds^2 = -c^2 dt^2 + dx^2 (The flat Lorentz metric) However, this is NOT what the individual person actually SEES. The "apparent size" of the world is judged relative to a person's own individual body size (i.e. a 9 year old sees a world which is twice as large as an 18 year old, simply because he's only half the size of an adult). The same thing holds true for time. A 9 year old's mental speed is known to be only half that of an 18 year old (so called mental age) and this can be easily demonstrated. Adult mental speed is about 16 bits/sec whereas the mental speed of a 9 year old is only 8 bits/sec. Amazingly Thomas Edison himself first discovered this when he invented the movie projector. He discovered that for an adult you had to run the film at 16 frames/sec to make it "movie", but for a 9 year old you only had to run it at 8 frames/sec to achieve the same effect. A century of intense investigation has confirmed this to be a direct measure of a persons "mental speed". Fact is, a 9 year old sees a world that moves twice as fast as an 18 year old. This follows the human growth curve. And if we call this curve a(t), we can convert the ordinary Lorentz Metric into a "seen reality metric" by substituting a(t)dx for dx and a(t)dt for dt which gives us what I call the "SEEN REALITY METRIC" ds^2 = a(t)^2 ( -c^2 dt^2 + dx^2) In other words, as a person grows thru childhood he sees the world "shrinking" and "getting slower". Notice that dx now is a "co moving coordinate". And that the metric is what Physics calls a "conformal metric", because it is conformally flat. Note: although it is conformally flat, it is not actually flat, since the Riemann Curvature tensor is not zero… it contains terms in a’ and a". Okay, so what I have done is substitute the person's own "foot size" for the standard ruler, and the persons "mental speed" for the standard clock. We now have a metric written using a VARIABLE CLOCK and a VARIABLE RULER, but what we are saying is that it APPEARS that the person is not changing, but that actually the world is changing, it is SHRIUNKING and getting SLOWER. Now obviously this metric is NOT going to satisfy the laws of Physics.. a variable clock would mean that Newton's first law of motion wouldn't even hold true. BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER we are only taking about an "apparent world" not the real world! It is only the IMAGE of the world that is shrinking and slowing down... but this is important, because as they say "what you see is what you get". Now what I want to know is whether the above proposal, the "conformal metric" proposal is actually true! For instance, I explained this to a small group of physicists once and one of them raised his hand and said "if the Universe looked like it was contracting, why wouldn't all of the stars in the night sky appear to be blue?". Well, I was floored by the question.... of course there should be a "blue shift in the head" if my proposal was correct. BUT then I realized that NO, in fact there is NO HUBBLE SHIFT IN A CONFORMAL METRIC! yes the wavelengths are scrunched up by the contraction, but meanwhile the stock is speeding up by the same factor, the net result is that there is NO HUBBLEFREQUENCY SHHIFT. So my question really is this.... while the conformal metric obviously does not obey the DYNAMIC laws of Physics (Newton’s laws, Einstein's field equations etc.), it DOES appear to me that the conformal metric obeys the KINEMATIC laws of Special relativity. Note for instance that in a conformal metric the speed of light is ALWAYS ONE, so I think the Lorentz Metric is entirely justified. So.... can you see any further objections that would contradict my proposal of the fact that "HUMAN REALITY" is described by the conformal metric above described. In closing, let me mention that this is NOT A FRIVELOUS PROIBLEM. It is actually a scientific explanation of the phenomenon of "God", so called. Thanks in advance, George Hammond |
