Wolfram: Master of the Observable Universe
The ultimate goal of Stephen Wolfram is now becoming apparent. It is no less than to become Master of the Observable Universe (MOTOU). Just how will he achieve this seemingly impossible task?
Certain diagrams and symbols have always been thought by some as having influence over people and events. Depicting what has occurred in the past to planning the future, diagrams use symbols to reveal the deeper meanings and themes that govern our lives.
From the first days of mankind with their spat out paintings on cave walls, through the ancient Eye of Ra, old Alchemical Symbols, the Witch's Hecate's Wheel, Industrial Revolution's Engineering drawings, Electrical Circuit diagrams to present day Software Models, there is now something more powerful being created.
I speak of none other than the ultimate aim of the Wolfram Physics Project. The Key to this work is finding the One Rule. The One Rule that binds the Universe together in the darkness. It is often speculated that such a rule will be simple. However, its exploitation will not be.
But for now, imagine the vast Hypergraph explosion driven to this day by the One Rule. The One Hypergraph holds the complete Cosmos within; all entities, objects and events of the past, present and future. Everyone who lived and died, those who are alive now and those yet to be born have a place in the diagram.
The One Hypergraph will contain large entities such as Galaxies and Stars and these will be the easiest to spot since large entities take up more space and so will occupy large areas of the Hypergraph. Conversely, the One Hypergraph will also describe the very small. Particles and forces such as leptons and bosons will also be seen because they exist closer to the Atoms of Space. Of course, it won't be possible to see individual lives in any great detail but perhaps if the computational effort can be achieved the resolution will eventually be good enough.
How will the MOTOU yield his great power? The mere act of staring into the One Hypergraph changes the future. The Hypergraph reveals things as it develops and defines the world. It knows what is wanted and changes itself to accommodate inner most desires. As symbols in the Hypergraph become the objects they represent the map becomes the territory.
Such power must be used wisely, if at all. With great power there comes great responsibility and all actions have consequences. Battle not with monsters lest ye become one; for when you look into the Hypergraph, the Hypergraph looks into you.
