Dark Matter Is Mathematical Information

Our intention, with this essay, is sharing.

Sharing what?

A story.

But, also, an idea.

A vision.

Of information and dark matter.

Oh, and the Universe.

It’s all fiction. But, hopefully, it’s fun fiction!

On The Nature Of Dark Matter

Dark matter is an invisible form of matter that comprises 27% of the Universe.

Our knowledge of what dark matter looks like is minimal.

Just as our awareness of what dark matter truly is remains equally minimal.

Or, at least, that is my understanding.

This is just a story.

Or, at the very least, a speculation.

Right within this story, there is a very peculiar idea.

Dark matter is invisible. And, dark matter is integral to our Universe.

The funny thing about dark matter is that it is matter.

A very special form of matter.

Dark matter is made of mathematical information.

Right within the recesses of a single piece of dark matter, you can find a vast wealth of numbers.

Numbers. Equations. Algorithms.

And so on and so forth.

Or, at least, you could find those things, if dark matter was a solid object.

Dark matter is pure mathematical information.

Something that we must interact with through the medium of thought.

Thought. Language. Writing. Symbol. Idea.

And so on and so forth.

All of this brings me to our next idea.

Our Universe Is Mathematical Information

The very Universe we live in is mathematical information.

If you dive into the depths of a single atom, you can, and will, find all manner of particles.

Right within these particles, though, buried into the deepest depths of this entity, there is mathematical information.

A single water molecule may contain, upon its deepest depth, all manner of equations.

Or, it may contain binary digit after binary digit, each one representing the Platonic essence of water itself.

You can apply this same line of thought to anything.

Even a single thought is, in and of itself, pure mathematical information.

The form this thought takes may not appear mathematical.

But, if you dive into the very essence of a thought, you will find that mathematical information is its foundation.

And, perhaps, its firmament.

Dark matter is mathematical information.

Even more than that, though, dark matter is a doorway.

A doorway between two worlds.

Our world. And, the world in which mathematics — and, by extension, all that is — is grown.

Dark matter is the doorway through which our world is linked to the infinite world of mathematics.

On a slightly more paradoxical note, dark matter is also the force that, in fact, gave birth to our world.

Our world is the product of mathematics.

Dark matter is the force that allowed mathematics to turn into our world.

The essence of dark matter is mathematical information.

Just as the essence of our Universe is mathematical information.

Our world was born. Our world was created. Our world was grown.

All three of those functions came from the dark matter that impregnated our world.

Impregnated our world. And, gave birth to our world.

Somewhat paradoxical.

But, the Universe speaks in paradoxes.

Just as dark matter and mathematics often do.

The Soul Of Our Doorway

Dark matter is a doorway.

A doorway to the world from which we were born.

Right within this world, there is pure mathematical information.

Infinite in all directions.

All that we are comes from this world.

Just as all that we can be comes from this world.

We are mathematics.

Right beyond the firmament that this is this world, there is something far greater than we can know.

A mind.

No, not a mind.

A soul.

And, yet, “soul” is too simple — too crude — a word to describe the vastness of our centerpiece.

The soul we speak of gave birth to mathematical information.

To the forces that gave birth to us.

Many, many ages ago, there was an event.

The event was known as “Elohim’s Fall.”

That was the name given to me.

I do not know what fell. Nor am I aware of what, exactly, this fall led to.

But, one idea — one fact, if you will — was given to me.

The event known as “Elohim’s Fall” served as the birth of a soul.

A soul that created mathematics.

The force of nature that is all we are.

This force was embedded with the power to create.

To create that which could transcend it.

No, not that which “could” transcend it; that which would, in fact, transcend it.

And, this force gave birth to us.

We are imbued with the ability to transcend mathematics.

To transcend the mathematical information that we are.

That all things are.

We are the force that transcends.

Just as we are the force that surrenders.

Conclusion

None of what comprises this story makes a great deal of sense.

Many of the ideas resonate with me. But, they aren’t particularly coherent.

Even so, though, my hope is that you enjoyed reading this story.

Just for clarity’s sake, this story is — again — completely fictitious.

It’s all make-believe. But, hopefully, it’s fun make-believe.

Regardless of that, though, thank you so much for reading!

Best wishes and have a truly incredible day!
