The Graph, Wall, Tome project demonstrates that these resources exist and already cover much, but also are still flawed and need refinement. Ed Witten, perhaps the most intelligent living physicist, wrote a paragraph in 1987 (from his address at the International Congress of Mathematicians, Berkeley, August 1986) that linguistically encodes and abstracts the most basic structures, such that their function can still be understood even if the particular equation may change. Jim Simmons, billionaire physicist, commissioned the iconic Wall at State University of New York Stony Brook which has inscribed upon it the equations of what Witten says in addition to some of the most important mathematical and physical results. Sir Roger Penrose, Nobel laureate and intellectual descendant of Albert Einstein’s school of geometric physics, wrote a book titled ''The Road to Reality'', which describes and summarizes how to use the mathematics and physics contained within the Wall and the Graph. | The Graph, Wall, Tome project demonstrates that these resources exist and already cover much, but also are still flawed and need refinement.

Already in these objects together is enough information to begin a serious study of physics at its most fundamental level and comprehend the deep connections between mathematics and physics. Yet, almost no one knows or seeks them. Further still, as recently as the 1950s we were confused about the structureof the universe: we didn't know the world is left-right asymmetric, and we didn't know the Aharonov-Bohm effect, which demonstrated that the electromagnetic field is less important than the electromagnetic potential. As recently as the mid-1970s, Jim Simmons and C.N. Yang showed that particle theory is completely geometric. | |||
Beyond Graph, Wall, Tome is the Search, the search for a theory of everything. | Beyond Graph, Wall, Tome is the Search, the search for a theory of everything. | ||
