The understanding of the origin of Universe(=Everything, Multiverse, and our Life experience included) was likely never fully successful. Fundamental obstacle for succeeding in it has been the logical inconsistency of the concepts “Origin” and “Universe”, because an attempt to explain Everything by Something, makes the Something part of Everything, which leaves us with “Nothingness”, as the only viable candidate for “Origin”.
Universe to us subjectively appears as a complex and diverse experience. In fact, except for some regularity (which we call laws of physics), the patterns we see every day appear so complex, that only something like a universal computer with large memory could possibly generate it. We had recently even done so by creating 3D computer games and worlds running on Universal Turing Machines (UTMs) -- our computers.
From here, we can conclude:
(1) It follows that, if we could come up with a UTM from “Nothingness”, we could explain pretty much everything that is computable.
Our experiences rely on finite numbers of receptors with limited granularity (selectivity), and limited lifespan, which seem to imply finite number of possible experiences (as their Cartesian product) by a being.
(2) It follows that, our life experience is likely computable.
To come up with a UTM from “Nothingness”, let’s:
1. assume “Nothingness” 2. conclude “Equidistance” (because “Nothingness” means equal absence of information regarding any aspect whatsoever) 3. see the definition of a ball 4. see the computation of Pi number with varying precision, i.e.:
Remember balls from degenerate ones in low-dimensional spaces with special coordinate systems and weird distance metrics, to quite standard Euclidean ones, to hypersphere, to the most near-perfect conceivable ball regarding any information aspect whatsoever.
Unfortunately, we don’t know if Pi is really equivalent to UTM, because we had not yet solved the Normality of Pi conjecture, but assuming it is Normal, to understand how your unique experience of life could have arisen:
1. assume that your life experience is a finite number 2. conclude that it is in Pi.
However, if Pi is normal, then then the conclusion is not informative at all, because we will find any finite string in it many times over.
This is where I bumped into a wall. It would be much more informative, if Pi actually is notnormal.
