Hi JAK
(1) My own feeling is that magnetism and gravity are very similar in that they are both effects caused by the warping of space. No matter is stationary - all matter is travelling through space at a very high velocity (about 30,000km per second according to one estimate). So what we see as gravity and magnetism is a slight deviation in the path of a particle as it hurtles along. The deviation we call gravity is due to the presence of mass which distorts space and creates a new path of least resistance'. Magnetism is brought about by an imbalence in the charges on groups of particles. Einstein's and Clerk-Maxwell's equations have been brought together by others indicating that these two effects are very similar but of different magnitudes.
(2) It depends on which is the real one. As I live and work in this world. I hold it to be the real one - at least at present. But the underlying one - which includes the aether - is more real in an absolute sense as our world derives from it. In this sense the matter particles of our world are indeed just an indicator of what lies beyond.
I will expand on the compatibility and differences between my model and other theories in a set of posts to follow shortly.
