   Well, this debate, the multiverse universe debate. I see both sides assumed that all the laws of nature were fixed at the moment, the big bang and all the constants to a fixed one. As I've shown, the constants may vary. I discussed this in the science tradition, but also the laws don't have to be fixed if. The laws are like habits. They can evolve along with nature. They don't all have to be fixed at the moment. The Big Bang, the whole of this debate just dissolves away like the morning mist. If we have a view of the evolution of the habits of nature, then cosmologists have had to postulate da…

   The you know our experience right our experience the meaning of our of our past experience is also something accessible only by my consciousness is not in space and time. >> No >> that is in some but it it is in some kind of space-time matter but it's not the kind of space-time matter that we normally think about. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. For example, right now the only hypothesis that I have for the me for the you know the matter that will represent permanent permanent memory of the experience will be dark matter because dark matter doesn't interact with real matter or energy…

   Dark matter is exactly such a particle. We believe there are dark matter particles in the universe. Most of the mass of the universe by energy is dark matter. We believe that there are probably millions or billions of dark matter particles flying through this room right now and we don't care because they go right through. They do not interact with us. To affect our everyday lives in any way, this new particle would have to interact substantially with the particles that we know are in us like electrons, protons, and neutrons. So imagine there's some new interaction. There's a new particle that …

   Matter is a appearance in consciousness of conscious activity. Yeah, yeah, it's a presentation of consciousness to itself. Yeah. from across the dissociative boundary. but can you now feel this? I mean, it's it's I know you now for three years, and I know this intellectually. And it does it starts to sink in that I'm starting to sort of really feel okay. I'm looking here at the universe. Yeah. Thinking, and and that presents itself to me as Bernardo sitting here. Right. It's the mentation of the universe. I'm sort of. But it's just, the abstraction of it, you know? But I do find it a better po…

   But the thing is is that figuring out this hierarchy is tough for physicists because they're so trapped in spaceime that they're they're focused on size. So if you see people trying to come up with a theory of everything all the time, uh it's like atom, molecule, cell, organism, planet and then you know galaxy or solar system then galaxy and then universe. This is focused on size. So you're not actually this is not a fundamental theory because it is it is built on the axiom of size already you know existing as an axiom or as a you know presupposition and that is not fundamental. So you have to…

   The thought being that if you know the ingredients and you know their behavior, then at least in in an inprinciple sense you understand everything because everything is made of those ingredients acting on each other through those forces. But the imprinciple needs to be underscored. Nobody ever imagined that a theory like string theory or whatever your favorite unified theory theory of everything might be would you know be able to predict our behavior tell us what we're going to have for lunch tomorrow or be able to understand the nature of consciousness or the nature of life. I mean perhaps a …

   Knowing is an experience. That's me. One say that's me. It knows itself. >> Yeah. >> It brings into at the same time that it knows itself, it brings it into existence. Okay. And it must be a part whole of itself. Why? It's not made of parts. One is not made of parts. It cannot see itself just a little bit. It's got to see itself completely in the direction in which it look at itself. >> What [clears throat] is direction? The direction is the identity of what it brings into existence. That's the identity of the sati. It brings into existence a saty. A part of itself that now b…

   NARRATOR: Direct dark matter detection experiments go back to the 1980s. Xenon-based experiments, similar in design to LZ, to the 2000s. So far, all the experiments combined have detected nothing. But the process constantly narrows down what dark matter could possibly be. And currently, LZ has time on its side. The plan is to accrue a total of three years' worth of data. GHAG: Hopefully, there'll be a direct detection and we'll start to understand the nature of it. It could be that dark matter isn't a simple one-size-fits-all WIMP. It could be that there's multiple different types of dark matt…

    I started graduate school in 1984 at Oxford where my son is starting in the fall which is fun. But I started graduate school in in 1984. The very first paper I wrote was a analysis of a potential dark matter candidate. It was sort of a straightforward research project for a beginning student. No one knows what the dark matter is. So make a guess, hypothesize a new kind of particle with new kinds of interactions to speak to the questioner's question and work out whether cosmologically enough of that stuff would still be around to supply the missing gravity that the astronomical observations req…
