ON TIME AND LIGHT - Part 2A

I'll be posting my continuation of a series explaining how I believe Einstein and Bohr might be able to settle their 100 year long differences of opinion by rethinking Time.

However, I have edited Part 1, and a re-read might be in order while you're waiting.

I'll be making the following assertions to develop my model of Time, and I'm confident it will be so obvious that you'll be kicking yourself wondering "why I didn't think of that" when you see what I've cooked up.

1. The universe has potentially an unlimited number of spacial dimensions.

2. Our physical universe is defined by properties of the matter from which we ourselves, and the things around us, are composed.

3. We are made of matter that only occupies three spacial dimensions. It is trivial to show that matter in our reality does not have more than three spacial dimensions but must have at least three spacial dimensions. For example, with our bi-focal vision a 4D asymmetrical object would appear to change size and shape when rotated. There is no massive object that does this.

4. A "particle" that does not have (rest) mass (eg Boson) does not exist in, nor occupy, physical space. Such particles are "space agnostic" and are detectable only when captured into, or released from, a particle that does have mass.

5. Massless particles only ever propagate through space as waves, and only ever accumulate in massive particles as particles.

6. At least one higher spacial dimension exists constituting a rail upon which the known three dimensional massive universe is expanding as if riding the surface of an expanding 4D bubble. The centre of this 4+ dimensional bubble is the origin of the big bang.

And on that bombshell... I'll let you think about how all this works while I put together the rest of part 2.
