The multi-centered Universe, trying to make sense of it all. bit.ly/multi-centered_univer…. Long time, no video, but one does need to understand what the most basic numbers mean. bit.ly/multi-centered_univer…

Some math with big implications: you can understand integer and half integer spin using conjugates of space-time numbers (aka quaternions) bit.ly/conjugates

In support... For a simple EM wave, E.B is invariant because it is zero. The norm squared of (B-E) minus the norm squared of (-B-E) is zero since the size of B stays the same and IS 4E.B. Do Euler-Lagrange on E.B, and out pops the no-monopoles and Faraday's law. Nice.
This is how I derive the Maxwell source equations using space-time number differential operators, potentials, and current densities. Kinda quick!
Derive the Maxwell eqs. with space-time numbers, not F^uv. (0, B-E)(0,-B-D)=(B²-E², 2 ExB), then apply the Euler-Lagrange equations. This was the first job I gave my derivative function Dq(). bit.ly/Maxwell_derivation

Space-time numbers (aka quaternions) python library. If you want to play symbolically or numerically with space-time numbers in a Jupyter notebook, do a git clone (look at the notebook_template.ipynb first) bit.ly/Qs_py

Doing Physics with Quaternions, the Book. Got around to putting it together, a little under 170 pages. Suggestions for edits welcome. bit.ly/doing_physics_book

The Here-Future is a Negative Number. Strange but true if you treat events as numbers in space-time. The fact that it goes again conventions is a bonus. (8') bit.ly/here-future

Why Quaternions and Not ...? A 17' talk about why I stick with quaternions (or as I prefer to refer to them these days, space-time numbers). Reversibility is essential, which is simple for addition, but a challenge for multiplication. bit.ly/why_q

Understanding Schrödinger's cats, Parts 1 & 2, Space-like Space-time Numbers and The Wave Function. 1 4 minute video another = 8' video, no extra clicking needed. bit.ly/schrödingers_cat_par…

Understanding Schrödingers cats, Part 2 of 2, The Wave Function. It was fun to write out all the wave functions needed for this famous thought experiment. You will have to watch to find out if any of the three cats lived or died. bit.ly/schrödingers_cat_par…

Gravity relativity, hyperbolas we can agree on. I was NOT able to use a Feynman video (cost ~$1.7k). A new idea on inertia: randomize quantum returning-momentum-energy - arrows cancel, energy remains. bit.ly/SPR_video_3

Tonight is the 3rd Spiritual Physics Research Discussion Group. GRAVITY is the topic. Will discuss a new idea about inertia. Be there 7:00 pm EST bit.ly/SPR_zoom with space-time
My big birthday gift of an Apple Watch helped me take this picture. I will be doing a task on a new road to gravity in two weeks, Friday, March 26, 7 pm, bit.ly/SPR_zoom with space dash time as the code thing. instagram.com/p/CMVAOq1jbOa/…
