Although there are several great resources to map the way toward complete understanding. Most people will not undertake the journey to understand the source code to the world that we all inhabit. | Although there are several great resources to map the way toward complete understanding.

== The | == The GWT Project == | ||
Bringing an understanding of fundamental physics is one aim of The Portal. | |||
There currently exist 3 resources that themselves contain all that you need for an almost complete understanding of the world. | |||
# The Graph - A paragraph written by Ed Witten | |||
# The Wall - The iconic wall of Stony Brook University | |||
# The Tome - The book 'The Road to Reality' by Roger Penrose | |||
These resources are available to everyone, but will be sought by almost none. The aim of the GWT project to convert these resources into a medium that can be widely disseminated, and which can not be ignored. | |||
This project will require bi-directional information transfer, and the minds of people with many different aptitudes. | |||
We need mathematicians, topologists, geometers, and physicists to understand these resources, and all of their implications. | |||
We need explainers, and educators, to convey this information to a wider audience. | |||
And we need artists, linguists, and programmers to create intuitive visualisations. | |||
The Portal will create a community of people, working together to that achieve these aims. Success will generate yet further insights, perhaps opening up a more fundamental understanding of the nature of reality. | |||
