INSIGHT

Virtual Reality and Physics

  • Virtual reality explains physics experiments better than materialism, especially quantum mechanics.
  • It suggests our consciousness and the "computer" running our reality are non-physical.
INSIGHT

Double-Slit Experiment and Observation

  • In the double-slit experiment, particles behave like waves or particles depending on observation.
  • This suggests reality is computed probabilistically, which virtual reality theory supports.
INSIGHT

Consciousness as Information System

  • Consciousness is an information system, and we are avatars animated by individual units of consciousness.
  • Our consciousness, like the computer, must exist outside of this virtual reality.
