Rick Delmonico - Collected Quotes

"A quantum of action in a field creates the dimensions it inhabits. Fields contain waves of potential."  (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)

"At every level of the fractal hierarchy, variation enters the system in different ways, so there is no scale invariance. All of the information is stored in the relationships of and in each level in the computational geometry." (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)

"How can unity and infinity share the same space? There is only one way, as a fractal." (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)

"In a fractal nested hierarchy there are an infinite number of boundaries and boundary conditions, this is important because this is where emergence comes from and this is why there are no perfect symmetries."  (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)

"The computational geometry of space/time is fractal. The entire system is interwoven as a fractal and as each series of iterations occur, there is a dithering of sorts because the difference in possibilities can be matastable in many locations in the computation. Each layer of the system computes in a frequency that is probably following the phi ratio. Measurement is always described as ratio and scale may be, in a sense, an illusion. Light appears to be scale invariant and the cutoff frequency may be another illusion. If this is true, everything is fields and particles are just a smaller version of a field." (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)

"The fractal nesting of the relationship between space and time at different scales causes phase transitions as the influence of one force changes with respect to another. From this we get the astonishing variety of behaviors in the material world." (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)

"The particle/wave duality has something to do with the nature of time. Time is intimately linked to information, you cannot separate them. Information moving in time always contains meaning. This meaning has a truth value. There is a dynamic nature to these truth values with application and material expressions. Experience relies on these expressions, it is the perception or division of the expression that creates the experience. How much we are able to understand varies from experience to experience. In the quantum world these expressions have a probability. A fractal probability distribution." (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)

"The structure of reality is a computational geometry that is fractal in nature. Truth is the highest energy state of the system, we are branching out in a fractal pattern into uncertainty. What we value matters, meaning is generated in a nested hierarchy. The intellect will only get you so far, beyond this are things like desire. Desire is a higher level of processing, it is deeper and more nuanced. There is something beyond the emotional realm that I will call spirit, as an organizing principle, spirit has the ability to transcend space and time and generates value and meaning that have harmonious relationships that keep the system going. Without harmony and some principle of organization, time or process would end."  (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)

"There is a fractal nesting of time-like loops in spacetime. Both space and time emerge from a quantum of action in a field. Space and time are united but different. The scale of the dimensions is inversely proportional, as well as the density. The only infinity is one of scale." (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)

"Waves travel according to their dimensionality. The idea is to find agreement in two unrelated fields that point to the same thing, a duality. Waves can't be quantized, interactions among the associated dimensions can. Fractal geometry and levels of description. It is the interaction of forces across scale, with ratio being the only thing that is discrete." (Rick Delmonico, "Fractals all the way down", 2018)
