Really geeky thought

There's hope of a Grand Unified Theory which would explain all the four fundamental forces in a single equation, which might be what you're thinking of. No such theory has been produced, though.

That's the one! Haven't really read into it, just seen it around now and then.

I thought people already do see maths? Only they see it as a series of images where things like trees represent certain numbers and the same for hills and mountains. And there's people who smell in colour and see colour as smells? Some sensory thing I can't remember the name of.

Autistic retardism.

I'm sure there's a theory that states the Universe is a singular mathematical equation or something like that.

Everything that happens anywhere, even thoughts in your head can be brought down simply to probabilities for the movement of particles, which can be brought down to 1s and 0s. The way these 1s and 0s change can be described through thermodynamic law and entropy. You don't have to worry about mavity and temperature and stuff, only the probabilistic motion of particles through varying densities of degrees of freedom expressed as just information (1/0). If you think of just these bits then basically the entire workings of the universe can be described as the movement of information (through entropy according to new theories) i.e. maths.

What I'm saying is imagine in 10,000 years if you could "see" this entropic information the way your eyes see photons now.

So our eyes can detect light, and our ears can detect sound waves, our skin detects temperature and density and stuff.

I've been reading up on entropy and information theory and it occurred to me that our MIND is just another sensory organ that can detect MATHS. You know how stuff is radiating heat and light, it's also radiating maths in a way. There is an underlying mathematical system to the universe.

So computers are like telescopes, letting us get a "closer look" at complex maths. Maybe one day humans will evolve to a point where we see maths like we see light now, instinctively.

You say detect but can you prove it? sure! here's my detection device! but what proves that the detection device really detects? another detection device? hey lets throw mirrors opposite each other to prove that whats in the mirror is a direct reflection of reality.

Whats to say that that image infront of your "head" isn't really just that, an image?

;):D:confused:
 
It would be very nice indeed if the universe can be explained in mathematical terms. I suspect this to be hopelessly optimistic, but the model will improve with time until we come up with something better.

The OP is the scribblings of a retard though.
