Tell me something. Are strings matter or energy? If they are energy, then they would be dimensionless just as photons are. However if they are matter, then dimensions do matter. Also the way they vibrate determins what they become (matter or energy). But what is the base state of strings???

Though when spacetime is considered to consist of a single point, G=mc^2, then sizes and shapes cease to remain prevalent - all shapes, sizes and dimensions are simultaneously included and excluded like a blank white canvass that "already" contains every picture conceivable. |
