Transcript of a lecture given by Cynthia Chung at ‘The Universe, Creativity and You‘ Symposium. We live in a strange time. Many have forgotten the power of imagination and are instead bogged down with the reality of ‘practicality’. The reality of ‘the budget’, and the reality of ‘what is deemed useful and what is deemed…

Uncovering the Secret History of the Metric System with Fehmi Krasniqi
In this second part of a series of Rising Tide Foundation interviews with researcher Fehmi Krasniqi, we explore the forgotten ancient origins of the metric system, which involves a multifaceted debunking of the fiction that this scientific method of measurement emerged out of the French Revolution and instead review the evidence pointing to the physical…
Leibniz vs Newton: A Clash of Paradigms
RTF President Cynthia Chung kicks off the symposium ‘As Above so Below: Re-uniting the Macroverse with the Microverse” with a presentation on Leibniz vs Newton: A Clash of Paradigms. This presentation will introduce the principled conflict of two opposing schools of thought materialist/mathematical defined by Newton vs the higher dynamic/metaphysical method embodied by Gottfried Leibniz….
Exploring the Scientific Fallacies (and Political Realities) Behind Darwinism
Matthew Ehret joins the Discovery Institute’s Dr. Gunter Bechly and talk show host Zain Khan for a lively discussion on the Darwin hoax, it’s political origins and why any honest scientist who cares about truth must recognize its invalidity in the face of empirical data.
The Light of Life: An RTF Discussion with Dr Michael Clarage
Whether we are thinking about the radical materialism prevalent in our model of the atom, space time or life itself, a more holistic, rigorous and truthful restoration of scientific practice will have to occur if the discoveries future generations require of us will not be un-necessarily sabotaged. This Rising Tide Foundation seminar deals with the…
Goethe, Newton and the physics of colour
By Dr. Pehr Sällström Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the well-known German author and poet was born in 1749 and died in 1832, which is the same as to say that he lived during a period of intense development of the foundations of chemistry and electricity. Two relatively young sciences that have since had thoroughgoing influence…
Will Entropy Define the New World Paradigm?
By Matthew Ehret It has come to my attention in recent years, that the world financial system is one giant bubble sitting atop a hyperbolically growing aggregate of unpayable debts that can do nothing but default at a given moment. Looking at the world from the point of view of the inevitable collapse of the…
The Pythagorean Revival Needed to Overthrow Today’s Standard Model Priesthood
By Matthew Ehret Today, I would like to say a few words about the suppressed Pythagorean Tradition both as a celebration of a lost art of thinking that gave rise to the greatest revolutions in science and even moral philosophy but also as an antidote to the impotent cult of scientism which has permeated every…
The Plasma Universe and Max Planck’s Musical Space-Time Revisited
By Matthew Ehret Near the end of 2019, signals arrived to Earth from the Voyager 2 spacecraft which have shaken the foundations of modern physics, and brought into question what are the forces and principles shaping the space time of stars within galaxies (and implicitly galaxies within clusters of galaxies). The data which NASA scientists…
Is the Age of Big Bang Cosmology and ‘the Science of Scarcity’ Finally Coming to an End?
By Matthew Ehret It appears increasingly like our world is being shaped by ideas and intentions that have a pseudo-religious like commitment to limits and reducing human activity upon the earth. The concepts of “entropy”, “homeostasis”, “natural equilibrium” and “limits to growth” shape many of the contours of all permitted discussion of ecological, economic and…
