Subsequent to the completion and enabling of the first polymorphic film The Next Room (a quantum experiment in film, 2003) and described in other presentation materials and literature including a technical guide co-authored with Claudio Ingrosso, it became apparent that the film, although unintentional at the time, and from later research, empirically represented a logically constructed implicate order that enabled by a polymorphic engine gave rise to logically constructed explicate orders. The generative efficiency of this experimental film from a wholeness vastly greater than the sum of its parts was such that it also gave rise to some fundamental questions and a search for answers.
It is possible that this revealing concept, however crude by comparison, may already be existent and at work in Nature. This technology has primarily been used in further media applications including polymorphic pop videos with perfect audio visual concatenation, polymorphic sport applications enabling the play of real footage with virtual results and education videos facilitating bespoke and new learning. "Wholeness and the implicate order" is a theory proposed and pioneered by the eminent theoretical physicist and philosopher David Bohm (1917-1992).
It is one that we incorporate and build upon, using both its theory and its terminology where appropriate. In essence Bohm proposed that there was a deeper invisible implicate (to enfold) order underlying that which is explicate (to unfold) and visibly manifest. To demonstrate this, he cited the example of an ink droplet that was suspended in glycerine which was then rotated slowly thereby drawing the droplet out into a thinner and thinner thread until it eventually became invisible to the naked eye, at which point Bohm said that the order of the ink droplet was implicate within the substance. Reversing the process resulted in the thread returning to an ink droplet again, whereby it represented the explicate order. He also proposed that these orders were universal and universally interconnected.
According to David Bohm, quantum and relativity physics point to a new notion of physical reality, where the key notion is, that of implicate order. This notion he further suggests, can be extended to the field of biological phenomena and consciousness, thus making it into a proposal about the general architecture of existence. (Pylkkanen)
Based on the knowledge gained by polymorphic experimentation and Bohm's theory, it is proposed that by citing the following hypothetical examples relating to enfolded and unfolded space relative to a singular implicate point, will help further the understanding of the implicate and explicate orders.
When thinking about size in an implicate way it appears that size has no measurable relevance in an imagined theoretical space nor is the implicate simultaneously as one with the explicate even though one can readily become the other and vice versa. In an imagined theoretical space it is only proportion that gives meaningful comparison, yet it is possible to increase or decrease the size of an object mentally whilst holding the mental image as fixed physically in the mind's eye and without reference being available to measure the increase or decrease in size. How is it possible that we can imagine an increase in size and know that the size has increased and yet there is no reference to measurably show that it has increased?
We know that an object could be of any size if there is nothing to reference it to and calculate its measurement by. For example, think of an illuminated sphere of perfect proportions alone in the infinity of nothing, or at least as far as is necessary. There are no measuring instruments and there is nothing to reference its size to and we as observer do not know how far away we are from the sphere therefore we cannot calculate any meaningful measurement of its size.
In effect its diameter could be of any size from the smallest discernable to beyond that of a diameter as wide as a Universe and anywhere in-between.
Within this context it is a visual representation of an implicate order of many possibilities. In the following example this quality of indiscernibility can be used to differentiate between the implicate and the explicate. Imagine, in the mind's eye, an illuminated sphere alone in the infinity of nothingness. Now without altering the physical diameter of the sphere imagine that the sphere is bigger, much bigger. The sphere still looks the same (explicate) in the infinity of nothingness and yet we know it's bigger by implication. The explicate appears not to have changed but the implicate has indeed changed it into a new explicate. It might be easier if you think of it first as being a marble then think of it as being a planet of a greater distance away.
Cycle this image back and forth whilst keeping the diameter the same and it is possible, hypothetically, and albeit a superimposition, to envisage both the implicate wave function and the sphere's explicate possibilities that co-exist between the cyclic extremities. If an explicate sphere contains explicate units then some of these explicate units may be drawn into a singular implicate point and transformed into a super implicate of implicate units whereby they are in state of all possible positions and permutations simultaneously thereby creating a super integrated all unity. If under the right conditions this super implicate seed is triggered to release this all unity as separated units then a burst of greatly multiplied explicate units is released into and as a new explicate sphere.
If each explicate sphere contains explicate units and one or more singular implicate points then each singular implicate point is capable of capturing and transforming some of these explicate units into a super implicate state of all unity which when triggered releases a burst of massively increased separated explicate units within and as a new explicate sphere. In continuance, this would enable an exponentially increasing and infinitely growing multisphere.
