SPACE-TIME LATTICE CRYSTAL HISTORIOGRAPHY
You may be wondering why such a bizarre blog headline should be accompanying a blog posted under the heading of "Giza and Archaeology". K.M. shared this story, and in and of itself it's one of those potential "whopper doozies", but I have a high octane speculation to extend that "whopperdoozieness" into another one of my Wile E. Coyote dives into the speculation canyon below. Here's the article from our friends over at Phys.org:
Quantum-inspired advancement turns crystal gaps into terabyte storage for classical memory
Now notice here what is being done: they have figured out, finally, how to store data memory in crystals, and the answer, notably, is to use the normally occurring lattice defects to do so, or, to put it differently, the lattice defects become the storage devices:
But now, University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (UChicago PME) researchers have explored a technique to make ones and zeroes out of crystal defects, each the size of an individual atom for classical computer memory applications.
Their research was published today in Nanophotonics.
"Each memory cell is a single missing atom—a single defect," said UChicago PME Asst. Prof. Tian Zhong. "Now you can pack terabytes of bits within a small cube of material that's only a millimeter in size."
In other words, the next big data storage revolution could quite literally be an artificially grown quartz crystal, or some other material with a dense lattice structure. We've been watching no amount of science fiction shows for some time that use crystals to store data from their computers. And now it has taken its first small step into reality. As the article notes, forget about a flash drive, or even the old CD-rom or floppy disks. Now terabytes of data could be packed into a cubic millimeter of material. Imagine then the amount of data on a crystal the size of a thumb drive.
That's the whopper doozie.
But what about the Wile E. Coyote into the high octane speculation canyon below?
IN my various Giza Death Star books, and particularly in the last one, The Giza Death Star Revisited, I pointed out (and have often pointed this out in other contexts and interviews over the years) that lattice defects in crystals are naturally-occurring responses to the space-time environment in which they grow, and that with enough scientific progress, one might be able to read those defects and reconstruct that context, and as a further development in that technology tree, perhaps alter that structure by altering the crystalline lattice structure itself, since the one is an oscillator of the other, and vice versa. There would be a kind of discipline called "crystal historiography" designed to read naturally occurring crystals and able to recreate the basic physical circumstances in which they grew. And to fly into a complete psychotronic fantasia, there is one final, possible development.
Within much occult lore one can encounter the notion that crystals pick up the subtle "vibrations" of the people or individuals in whose presence they often remain. Some sources talk about "tuning" a crystal to an individual. In the context of the article, one may propose a speculative model of what may be occurring: as all organisms are bio-electric in nature, and give off a very subtle, dim light, a kind of unique "photonic signature" of the organism that is as unique to it as a fingerprint, that subtle field probably exercises a subtle influence on crystals constantly exposed to it, such that the field imprints upon the lattice structure of the crystal in very subtle ways. Extend the "bio-photonic" field idea to include :"bio-phononic" fields with all that that implies - sound, vibration, and so on - and one might also have crystals acting as memory storage for those types of imprinting.
In other words, from this simple technique, we may be watching the birth, or rather, the re-birth of a very old science, a science that degenerated into the current occult lore of crystals, vibrations, and so on. Time, and lots of experimentation, will, of course, tell.
See you on the flip side...
