As modern humans first walked the Earth roughly 70,000 years ago, the Moon's orbit came into harmonic resonance with the outer planets of Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus. The common denominators underlying these harmonic relationships are the earliest prime numbers of the Fibonacci series - two, three and five - the same numbers that interact to give us the harmonic relationships of music. Exploring th

Our understanding of the Universe is about to transform at all levels, from the tiniest Planck scale to the vast reaches of space. Recent scientific discoveries show that the information that upholds all of our modern technologies is exactly the same as the universal in-formation that underpins, pervades and is all we call physical reality.Exploring how information is more fundamental than energy,

For the outdated mainstream paradigm the world is a giant mechanism functioning in accordance with known and knowable laws and regularities.
