The D-Wave Chip: Optical Loop Superposition Annealing
D-Wave Inside the Chip Animation from D-Wave Systems on Vimeo.
Topological qbits are created by optical (photon) loops in superposition and computing consists of optimization annealing algorithms:
Fröhlich Condensation and Topological QBits in Microtubules
In support of Professor Hameroff’s theory, Dr. Anirban Bandyopadhyay brilliantly demonstrates the amazing process of the formation of microtubules based on quantum processes and discusses the hypothesis of quantum computing via topological qbits created in these precise Fibonacci structures.
What’s a NanoPoodle?
artist’s model of a CaMKII “nanopoodle” … i’d call it a nanospider, but…you know 😉
Dr. Hameroff defends his model of brain function, based on microtubule computation at the quantum level. #astounding

Waking Life, movie by Richard Linklater
This movie is pretty awesome, both from an artistic pov as well as philosophical, historical, scientific….a cornucopia of artistic styles and ‘ological viewpoints.
Emergent properties…I think Latif is one!

True But Not Provable

We’re talking about the origin of meaning…a large, unwieldy subject. Justin Curry begins to break it down into more manageable questions, with the help of Gödel’s concepts.
