An observer of mathematical reality and computational limits

A quick thought experiment with Tegmarks mathematical universe raises the issue of the observers relation to the platonic world of math. I also introduce MiT professor Seth Lloyd's ideas on the universe. Imagine that one of the many universes is a very small one, say so small it can only contain

George, great. - Absolute measures? So you want to supersede the Archimede-Einstein wisdom ('gimme a fixed point...to: total relativity) - which is OK with me. I like the way you approach questions (big deal for youG). Main topic: Reverse Hubble? do we go towards a ;Big Bang', which is indeed a

Russel, We are trying to related the expansion of the universe to decreasing measure. You have presented the interesting equation: H = C + S Let's try to assign some numbers. 1) Recently an article appeared in New Scientist stating that we may be living "inside" a black hole, with the
