Welcome to Gaia! ::

My Name is Megs, I love technogly and math. I enjoy reading and I love animals.

My favorite color is Orange, and my computer skills are awesome.

I like studying electricty and how circits connect to produce energy.

And I like RPing.

My name is Nolan.

I live in Bermuda, which is a 22 sq mile island in the middle of the Atlantic - but we're almost as modern as England.

I'm 13 and just finished my first year of high school. I took computers, physics, chemistry, history, and accounting.

I gain most of my knowledge through science magazines - although the word magazine implies lack of credibility; yet due to these, I learned little in my physics classes as I knew a great deal of the material. One magazine I find particularly useful is BBC's Focus.

I am interested in particular in the macro and micro-verses; that is, physics on the sub-atomic level and physics of the cosmos.

I would love to discuss topics with others, and I think I'm going to learn a lot from this guild.

I apologize ahead of time because I do not know what I'm talking about.

Hello my name is Nick, I'm 17. First I'll introduce the basic me-stuff then I'll get to the nitty-gritty stuff that I'm really into. First off, I'm an artist. I want to go to art school and hopefully build something off of that. I'm interested in animation and cartooning very much. I love drawing characters, fantasy characters, real people, faces, anything that involves people. I am learning japanese and I'm going to japan next month with my japanese aunt and cousins.(woot.)I play tennis and I'm pretty good at it, despite taking a huge break from the game. My mom is too much christian conformist-like and that can be frustrating for someone that actually has an open mind. My dad is a smart guy but he's also a psycho that has been hard growing up with. My favorite word is infiniti, but you will soon figure that out xp Ok now to the good stuff--

Lately I have been struggling a lot with some mind-altering experiences related with bipolar and I was put in a hospital for a week in december and over two weeks in april. I'm never ever going back to those shitholes. To be honest I really have close to no experience with structured scientific and mathematical systems that are widely accepted in the scientific/mathematical communities. I am a self-proclaimed genius when it comes to metaphysics and philosophy(...in the most pathetic way possible gonk ). I picked up a book at the library entitled "cosmic duality" and ever since then I've stuck with that term because it is a good title for my ideas and philosophies. Since my... unusual experiences I have been interested in a certain pattern that I have seen firsthand which I believe all things abide by. I love einstein's idea of figuring out a formula or system or pattern that unifies all things. Let's see if I can describe my pattern in words...(which I have not been able to do to this day, so this might get rocky and I might feel stupid afterwords, but hell, I'll try). It involves showing how nature puts things into a continuum, which very bluntly I can numerically(or more of numerical concepts), between 0 and infinti. It involves things coming from a status of infinitely large intervals coming together, coming inwards and gyrating together in a spherical fashion into a single point, becoming more and more infinitely small until it comes the inverse of infiniti, 0. That is a very very broad description but you can look closer and closer into my... well not my, but god's perhaps, pattern and as things become clearer and clearer it becomes more and more detailed; but not detailed in a complex way, but the opposite, in an unbelievably simple way. My favorite way to try and describe is the age-old technique of taking a square piece of paper and bisecting it, then bisecting one half, then bisecting a half of that half and so on. When I look at that piece of paper I feel as though I see two doors ahead of me, both closed. I try to open one door, but it is locked. The other is unlocked so I open it; there is more beyond this door. I come to two more doors. The same thing happens; one is locked so I go through the other. Then this happens infinitely. But my description is incomplete; the flaw to this description is that I started at a single choice between two doors. To be complete, I would have had to been opening doors infinitely in the other direction is well. For me, life is like spinning around on an endless wheel, metaphysically speaking... which is ironic because we physically are spinning around the sun. The center of the sun is one of an infinite amount of "0" points in this infinite universe. Our planets all revolve around it. In the planets there is a 0 point; matter and energy(maybe not the energy part IDK)revolve around them as well. In you is a 0 point. In your life are you not the center of your universe? Everything in your life is therefore revolving around you in a spherical fashion when speaking from the perspective of your life... which is your only perspective. Back to the cosmic duality thing, where you live, as the 24 hours come and go by as they have always came and gone by, day turns to night turns to day turns to night etc etc etc. And yes, I am OFF my medicine ladies and gentleman. Call me crazy if you will but I'm happy i did this because I write stuff like this a lot, but it never gets read by anyone but me(usually... unless someone looks at the stuff when I'm gone) but this is the first time I've posted something like this on a forum so it's neat to think someone might read this and actually respond to it.

Thank you if you actually read this!
Sincerely, Nick.

Hi. I am JuneeNoodle. You can call me Junee. Sorry if I sometimes type with bad grammar because English is my 2nd language. I will try my best anyway.

I only know high school/secondary level mathematics and physics, in terms of formal training. But I also enjoy reading things like Stephen Hawking's books or Scientific American. I recently wanted to learn more about discreet mathematics, but not too sure if I will be good at it. In general, I just enjoy logic and mathematics puzzles.

Hi,
My name is Federico, and on here I'm Ray. I'm currently on my first year of Uni, studying systems engineering.
I'm more into the physics part of the guild, not so much into the pure-abstract math part. Basically it boils down to I want to understand things using math, but math at the level studied by pro mathematicians is just mindblowing, and I'm still years away from understanding any of it, while in physics there seems to be..."logic" everywhere. which is never wrong. I probably think about 3 or 4 times a day on how calculating even the smallest real-world scenario for us is an immense task, say the exact force I needed to tie my shoelaces, or how much energy was dissipated as heat from the friction between the laces, while physics never gets tired. I mean, nature, the universe, whatever, call it Jesus if you want, never gets tired, and never is wrong. It's always perfect. 0 mistakes, and if there was a mistake, we'd notice if one day we pushed something and it sped towards us, or if we jumped and never stopped going up. Yet this never happens. This "perfection" is what I love about physics.

And then of course there is the infinitely interesting aspects of quantum mechanics which make no sense at all yet are mathematically right, and the unimaginable scales in astrophysics. And at every scale physics is always perfect, always bug-free. And that's just ******** awesome @_@.

Hello everyone. Im Martina and I finished uni at the beging of this year. My ending reserch paper was QA in stereotactic radiosurgery with Winston Lutz's test. Not a very typical. Most my classmates did more maybe intresting stuff...like "Mesuring longitudinal conductvity in nanowires with a microscop at atomic force", (hope i traslated this quite right - english is my 3rd lang. so sometimes, im missing some terms), "The impact of light beam on a coloide particle in a nematic liquid crystal",....never been a really good student but I like Physics much more I imagine at high school when decided to choose it as my study at uni (we have a bi diferent system that usa has elementary -> high school -> university (graduate) and than postgr);
Atm Im working as a Oracle developer...happend more by chance...tho still hope to work In some health related institute someday dealing in dosimetry or such...

hey im Lenny (aka yo_WTF)

20 years old, currently out of school but i've recently decided to go back to study quantum physics

uhhh also i like chocolate smile nice to meet y'all!!

Howdeh Folks.
My names Ben, I am sophomore, and I've been interested in physics since I was in about 2nd grade (first project about Albert Einstein). ''m in advanced math in science courses (junior courses), but I don't have much school taught physics yet. Most of what I learn is from private research. I'm mostly interested in cosmic physics, but I'm up for learning more about pretty much anything. Particularly quantum physics, because I am almost totally in the dark about most of it.

and I heard anecdotes were good so here we go. Back in 4th grade I did a project on einstein, specifically his theory of relativity. When my teacher got the project, she called me up to her desk and asked me if i had plagiarized it. She asked me to explain how it worked in my own words, and to her surprise, I gave her a full explanation about it.

And,

chocolate roxors teh soxors, woo!
