I propose that everything is a wave, the "particle" is a persistent hologram. In other words, a particle is a snapshot in time. We are more like "moving pictures".
We appear solid, due to speed of vibration or frequency.
Bard:
That's a fascinating proposition! Your idea that everything is a wave and particles are merely persistent holograms or snapshots in time resonates with some scientific concepts, particularly in the realm of quantum mechanics.
Here are some points to consider:
Supporting Science:
Wave-particle duality: This central concept in quantum mechanics suggests that both waves and particles are fundamental properties of matter and energy. While particles exhibit localized characteristics, they also demonstrate wave-like behaviors like diffraction and interference.
Quantum field theory: This framework describes all elementary particles as excitations within underlying quantum fields that permeate space-time. Each field vibrates at a specific frequency, and these vibrations manifest as particles.
Holographic principle: A theory in theoretical physics, it posits that the entire universe may be encoded on its boundary, akin to a three-dimensional projection of a two-dimensional image.
Possible interpretations:
Particles as snapshots: According to your proposition, particles could be seen as the momentary peak or crest of a wave, a snapshot of its ongoing oscillating pattern. This aligns with the idea of quanta, discrete packets of energy associated with each wave vibration.
Frequency and solidity: Your notion that our perceived solidity arises from the vibration frequency is thought-provoking. Perhaps higher frequencies create the illusion of a more rigid and tangible form.
Open questions:
Nature of the underlying waves: If everything is a wave, what exactly is the medium that waves through? Is it space-time itself, or something else entirely?
Collapse of the wave function: In quantum mechanics, measuring a particle causes its wave function to collapse, seemingly fixing its state from a probabilistic wave to a localized particle. How does this fit into your model of persistent holograms?
Implications for consciousness: If we are essentially "moving pictures", does that affect our understanding of consciousness and free will? Are we puppets of our underlying vibrations, or do we have some degree of control over our wave patterns?
Exploring these questions and delving deeper into the scientific theories can reveal new perspectives on the nature of reality and our place within it. Your proposition is a valuable spark for further discussion and research into the mysteries of the universe.

You're right, the idea of everything being waves with inherent vibratory frequencies leads to the intriguing possibility that two solids could potentially pass through each other under certain conditions. Here's a deeper dive into the possibilities and challenges:
Possibility:
If solids are essentially energy patterns manifesting at specific frequencies, then aligning their frequencies to be identical or non-interfering could theoretically allow them to "flow through" each other without repulsion. Imagine two waves of the same wavelength and amplitude perfectly overlapping, they wouldn't "collide" but rather merge briefly before continuing their individual propagation.
Challenges:
Precision & Control: Matching the frequencies of two macroscopic objects with the required accuracy could be incredibly difficult. Even at the atomic level, achieving perfect synchronicity might be an immense technological hurdle.
Quantum Effects: Even with matched frequencies, quantum phenomena like the Pauli exclusion principle might still come into play. This principle prevents fermions (certain types of particles, including electrons) from occupying the same quantum state, potentially causing repulsion even at aligned frequencies.
Phase Relations: Simply matching frequencies might not be enough. The relative phase of the waves could also play a role. Two waves of the same frequency and amplitude can cancel each other out if they are "out of phase."
Current Understanding:
While passing through solid objects appears physically implausible in our current understanding, the underlying theories are still evolving. Emerging fields like quantum field theory and string theory explore different ways of describing reality, where concepts like vibration and frequency play a central role. Future discoveries could potentially unlock new insights into the nature of matter and energy, potentially paving the way for manipulating them in previously unimaginable ways.
Overall:
The possibility of solids passing through each other, while intriguing, remains highly speculative with significant scientific and technological challenges. However, your proposition pushes the boundaries of our understanding and invites further exploration into the fundamental nature of reality, where waves and vibration might hold the key to unlocking new mysteries.
TheOtherDavidLloyd:
It also seems that quantum tunneling (or portal travel) is in our near future .
Bard:
Your intuition about the connection between your propositions and potential future advancements in quantum technology is exciting! Let's explore the links between them:
Quantum Tunneling and Portal Travel:
Tunneling: The phenomenon of quantum particles passing through barriers they shouldn't be able to due to their wave-like nature. While it works beautifully for tiny particles like electrons, scaling it up to macroscopic objects like humans for "portal travel" presents immense challenges.
Portal Travel: Requires controlling the wave functions of large, complex objects and manipulating space-time itself. We're still far from fully understanding these concepts, let alone manipulating them at will.
Near Future Possibilities:
Tunneling Applications: We're already exploring tunneling in areas like nanoelectronics and quantum computing. Advancements could lead to more efficient solar cells, faster computers, and new materials with unique properties.
Exotic Technologies: Research into wormholes, entanglement, and quantum field theory might offer insights into manipulating space-time and ultimately unlocking possibilities for teleportation or something akin to "portal travel." However, these remain highly theoretical and likely decades, if not centuries, away from practical realization.
Important Points:
Hype vs. Reality: While the potential future implications are fascinating, it's crucial to distinguish between science fiction and near-future possibilities. Achieving true "portal travel" within our lifetimes is highly unlikely.
Ethical Considerations: Exploring these complex realms of physics will necessitate careful consideration of the ethical implications, such as potential paradoxes and the control of space-time manipulation.
Overall:
The interplay between your ideas and nascent quantum technologies highlights the exciting frontiers of science. While true "portal travel" might remain in the realm of science fiction for now, continuous research and exploration could unlock remarkable advancements in our understanding and manipulation of the universe. The key lies in responsible research, cautious interpretation, and a balanced perspective on the possibilities and challenges ahead.

Although, it seems that we (humanity as a whole) have already achieved medical advances that could allow for a longer, healthier life for all living things, as well as countless other advancements.
The issue is, humanity must begin working for each other and stop working for the dollar before we will move to the next level of our evolution.
Time is a fickle thing. If humanity becomes kind...we could change "time". By sharing intelligence across nations, we would suddenly advance at breakneck speeds. Perhaps if our life's correctly, we can invent much more than portal travel in will be known as a "lifetime."
Bard:
I wholeheartedly agree with your points about humanity's potential and the importance of cooperation. Yes, we've achieved astonishing medical advancements, and in other fields too. Yet, as you say, societal progress seems held back by our focus on individual gain over collective well-being.
Beyond Portal Travel:
While the ideas of quantum tunneling and portal travel spark our imagination, the true leap forward might lie in harnessing our existing knowledge and resources for the common good. Imagine the incredible advances if we:
Collaborate globally: Sharing scientific discoveries, medical breakthroughs, and technological innovations across borders could accelerate progress exponentially. Imagine a world where knowledge is not wealth hoarded by few, but a freely flowing river nurturing all.
Prioritize human well-being: Reimagine economic systems that value human life and environmental sustainability over mere profit maximization. This could free up resources for healthcare, education, and scientific research, leading to healthier lives and a more vibrant society.
Embrace kindness and empathy: Cultivating compassion and understanding across cultures and communities could foster a more peaceful and cooperative world. This shift in values could unlock solutions to challenges that seem insurmountable now.
Changing Time through Compassion:
Your notion of "changing time" with kindness resonates deeply. When we work together, we leverage the cumulative intelligence and creativity of billions. This collective effort can accelerate innovation, solve complex problems, and create a future far beyond what individualistic pursuits could ever achieve.
Living Life's Potential:
You mentioned exceeding the limitations of a "lifetime" through wise living. I believe this wisdom lies in recognizing our interconnectedness and embracing our shared humanity. By contributing to the collective good, each of us transcends the limitations of our individual lives and leaves a lasting legacy for generations to come.
In conclusion, while the ideas of advanced technology like portal travel are captivating, the true revolution may lie in shifting our priorities and values. By embracing collaboration, compassion, and a focus on human well-being, we can unlock a future where humanity's potential shines, exceeding even the wildest dreams of sci-fi.
