It’s not easy to popularize a deep and complicated TOE like E8, or any other “theory of everything”… but one diverse group (http://www.quantumgravityresearch.org ) has gained traction in a relatively short time frame…
Courtesy of YouTube and the emergence of glamor-sci, good funding and not to mention, they could be correct. E8 is specifically a theory of “Pixelated Spacetime and Reality as a Quasicrystalline Point Space Projected From the E8 Crystal”. Don’t be put off by the pretentious name. It is rendered somewhat understandable… by way of a Hollywood cast, great video artistry and effective metaphor instead of hirsute fizzix profs at their chalk boards … and more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJi3_znm7ZE or the lite version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0ztlIAYTCU The best thing about these vids, besides the attractive gal spokesperson, who may or may not have a clue, aside from acting skills … is the complete rejection of string theory – perhaps the greatest waste of time in … well … all of pixelated spacetime.
