On Light

How does light fit into the picture? This is another interesting one. Relating light to waves is hardly a stretch. We all know that light has wave properties. The question is how do they propagate? Common theory says that light propagates in a vacuum. Using our everyday experience this point is hard to argue. The idea of an aether has long been made redundant (more out of a lack of necessity than anything else, Occum’s razor doing it’d work). In my theory, light propagation does neither.

As you have read, the fundamental core of the theory is that perceived distance between matter is an element of its wave function and that there is in reality no separation. A true vacuum in this model is purely a perceived distance between matter created by the wave function with literally ‘nothing’ in between. Therefore light does not travel through a vacuum as the vacuum does not actually exist. Light is another wave function and its transfer to other ‘connected’ particles is conditional on the function of the receiving wave. These conditions result in the effect, that light appears to move from emitter to receive at a speed in direct correlation with perceived distance, regardless of the frame of reference. In a ‘vacuum’, the wave travels from matter on one side directly to matter on the other. Should we place a detector in between, the same rules apply from emitter to detector. You may need to be reminded that this ‘distance’ is not real it is a perception of distance in ‘our’ space.

Here’s a model. Imagine three standing waves (these are the ‘particles’), overlapping at slightly different frequencies. The frequencies denote the distances from each other in ’space’. A harmonic sub wave starts on one of the waves (for simplicity, we won’t at present ask how it started). It might bounce back and forth from end to end not interacting with the other waves. As ‘time’ passes the sub wave changes. So that we are not losing anything, let’s say it is losing amplitude and gaining frequency. At some point it reaches the same frequency, or some harmonic, of one of the other waves and passes some of it on to the other wave. A bit later the wave has died down again and reaches the frequency of the third wave, passing on to it. The amplitude passed to the one ‘further’ away is less than the amplitude passed to the first tying in with the inverse square law. This is a very basic analogy and probably doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. Other elements of the wave form will have to be employed.
