Fredrick's Introduction/Background

[Fredrick]

Around the time I time I turned 21 years old I started to understand the whole picture. To be honest, it was a big disappointment. I had wild dreams, hopes, fantasies about what could be achieved, and realizing what reality entailed was a sobering experience.

Six years later I started reading about scientists looking for a final theory. I was truly amazed, because didn't they know? When a year later they were still wondering in the dark I sent letters to Science and Nature that scientists were forgetting to put the phenomenon of nothing in their final theory. Of course my quick scribbles were not considered at all.

In 1992 I had bought an expensive computer with which I could hardly do anything. But I could put all natural numbers on the screen, and place the numbers in sets of 2, 3, 4, 5 etc and I started looking for the structure of prime numbers. It was already known that they showed up especially when placing the natural numbers in sequences of 6 and 30. I worked on it a few weeks and then I saw that they were all connected: not in the positive, but in the negative: the non-prime numbers were all connected. I discovered a very quick way in finding out which numbers are and which numbers aren't prime numbers. I have a patent pending that would still beat the three mathematicians (Agrawal c.s.) from IIT, India, who came up with an algorithm a few years back.

It was not soon after my prime number stuff in 1992 that I realized that the phenomenon of nothing was visible within the prime number/natural number structures. To explain one of the steps one had to give importance to the number zero. I wrote a book about it, sought a publisher, but nobody seemed interested.

I decided to self-publish and needed a couple of editors to make it worth investing my own money. In 2000 Penta Publishing delivered "The Proof of Nothing - a theory of everything" and I was able to sell about 500 copies: not bad for an unknown person.

I got good feedback and I started writing an improved version. I did not feel like putting more money in it than needed and self-published my book on-line (you can read it for free) in 2003. Title: In Search of a Cyclops.

Though my first book was written with the scientist in mind, this new version gave me the chance to also deliver other structures we are all familiar with: Greek myths, religious ideas, words used in various tongues. Though two chapters create the scientific backbone of my book, most chapters are metaphysical to deliver the actual understanding of why nothing (separation) is a most fundamental feature in our universe.

In the 23 years I understand the whole picture I have often wondered if the top scientists of our world do not already know the answer, but that they have decided not to say anything. They get a lot of money to investigate a lot of fun stuff, and when the final picture is understood their funds might dry up significantly. However, I only think that sometimes. Most of the times I think most scientists are not looking very well. They are looking for a cyclops. Yet every now and then I bump into an (enlightened) person, who agrees/thinks/expects that a final theory cannot be based on a unified field of forces. Stephan Hawking seems one of them.

There is an explanation why both 6 and 30 appear to deliver the prime number sequences. There exists a matrix in the natural numbers (and the prime numbers) of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. These six numbers are repeated in new versions again and again. Six numbers that initially contain the number zero. Yet these first numbers are factually only 5 numbers due to zero, but all consecutive numbers are six numbers. 5 times 6 is 30: that why the prime number sequences show up in sets of 6 and 30.

The title of In Search of a Cyclops can be explained by the myth in which Odysseus is captured by a Cyclops. The old Greeks did not believe in a single god, but in multiple gods, and I think this segment of the Odyssey is about being confronted with monotheism. Monotheism is captivating, and there are a few things that need to be done to escape it. Odysseus was asked for his name and replied that his name was Nobody. Though the Cyclops thought this was strange, the name was accepted as real. In the cave in which Odysseus and his crew were held captive they plotted and decided to puncture the Cyclops' single eye. When the Cyclops started screaming after his eye got punctured, the other Cyclops of the island came to the closed cave and asked what had happened. The Cyclops responded that Nobody had puntured his eye, and that they should prevent nobody from escaping his cave. Of course they did not understand the logic of it and did therefore nothing to prevent Odysseus and his men to escape.

May you enjoy this poem by Charles Osgood where the theme is about responsibility. LW

There was a most important job that needed to be done,
And no reason NOT to do it, there was absolutely none.

But in vital matters such as this the thing you have to ask,
is WHO exactly will it be who’ll carry out this task.

ANYBODY could have told you that EVERYBODY knew,
that this was something SOMEBODY would surely have to do.

NOBODY was unwilling, ANYBODY had the ability,
but NOBODY thought he was supposed to be the one.

It seemed to be a job that ANYBODY could have done,
If ANYBODY thought he was supposed to be the one.

But since EVERYBODY recogized that ANYBODY could,
EVERYBODY took for granted that SOMEBODY would.

But NOBODY told ANYBODY that we are aware of,
That he would be in charge of seeing it was taken care of.

And NOBODY took it on himself to follow through and DO,
What EVERYBODY thought that SOMEBODY would do.

When what EVERYBODY needs so did not get done at all,
EVERYBODY was complaining that SOMEBODY dropped the ball.

ANYBODY then could see it was an awful crying shame,
And EVERYBODY looked around for SOMEBODY to blame.

SOMEBODY should have done the job and EVERYBODY would have,
But in the end NOBODY did what ANYBODY could have.
