Introduction

Motivations

Many might object to the very idea of a theory of everything, and they can summon various and very relevant arguments against one. Scientifically speaking, there is of course the issue that even IF we had one, we’d never know for sure because science doesn’t work that way — we can at most be sure of what…

Definitions and Premises

I find it appropriate to start up with some definitions because, as we saw, language can be tricky, and I know many nasty debates can be traced back to hermeneutics and ambiguous or imprecise speech, so I’d like to avoid going down that path. Here’s what I understand, in the plainest…

Semes

One of the first things that pops to the eye is the realization that, should we accept such definitions, there must be a synod which encompasses all of reality — that is, a state of being in which all things real exist as a single entity. This is not a new notion by a stretch; it may indeed be one of the oldest ones…

Axiomatic Basis

Provided with the unique set of tools we just assembled, we can lay out the foundations for the entire edifice of our work based on one simple, elegant, and powerful principle, that we shall call Unicity Principle. It reads:

Sema

The most natural, intuitive way anyone conceives of sema after being introduced to the concept is to think of them as material objects, sort of like atoms or some other fundamental particle. They’re not.

Sema are first and foremost a mental — or intelligible — construct, that refers to some…

Syneces

A synex is, simply put, the path drawn between any entities in the Worldtree. This seemingly trivial definition hides a wealth of interesting and illuminating structure.

Indeed, syneces are the source of all structure in the Worldtree — the reason for this is straightforward, but will…

Systems

When a semon partitions, it does more than just bringing upon new entities into the world; it creates a tangled web of relations between its elements that ultimately hinges on it. The ensemble of a semon with its offspring, its offspring’s offspring and so on, in addition to their many interactions with each…

Cosmogony

How then did our physical world came to be in light of these ideas?

The set of all things with which we have some sort of direct contact and possess measurable properties (ie, are physical) is called the universe, or more usually the observable universe. Our observable universe is, to…

Justifications

After all this, you might be wondering: “It’s all cool and stuff, but what’s the point? It won’t advance science per se, doesn’t really say anything new about the human condition or the universe that hasn’t been said a thousand times before, and most importantly, doesn’t lay out a path or route to be…
