One might have thought it was already exciting enough for our Physics Project to be showing a path to a fundamental theory of physics and a fundamental description of how our physical universe works. Despite this, however, fundamental physics always seemed to resist its advance. The Path to a New Paradigm.

Calculus calculates the immediate rates of change and is used for infinite series, derivatives, limits, integrals, and functions. Additionally, calculus comes in handy for the summation of small factors used to determine the whole number. Check out this book for middle schoolers to get a better hold on calculus. Computation.

Think of it as the entangled limit of everything that is computationally possible: the result of following all possible computational rules in all possible ways. It’s yet another surprising construct that’s arisen from our Physics Project. And it’s one that I think has extremely deep implications—both in science and beyond.

I had begun my career in the 1970s as a teenager studying the frontiers of existing physics. And at first I couldn’t see how computational rules could connect to what is known in physics. But I didn’t stop thinking “one day I need to get back to my physics project”. But now with the Physics Project I was doing this.

By adopting this approach, Kristin is able to solve meaningful problems in aerospace engineering, robotics, cybersecurity, theoretical computer science, mathematics, virtual reality, and more. Ultimately, that set me on the path to the computer science programme that changed my life and set me on my current trajectory.”.

Elementary students rarely encounter computer science or engineering, and advanced science courses in high school favor higher-income, non-minority students. For instance, only 38% of schools serving predominantly Black and Latinx students offer calculus, compared to 50% of all high schools.

The Second Law of thermodynamics is considered one of the great general principles of physical science. Sometimes textbooks will gloss over everything; sometimes they’ll give some kind of “common-sense-but-outside-of-physics argument”. But our Physics Project has changed that picture. Why does the Second Law work?

For instance, if they’ve barely passed their math course from the onset, STEM programs that major in math or subjects such as physics or mechanical engineering may not be the best move. Let’s look at the main branches: Science in STEM. It includes topics such as chemistry, biology, physics, astronomy, and geology.

Multicomputation is one of the core ideas of the Wolfram Physics Project —and in particular is at the heart of our emerging understanding of quantum mechanics. It’s worth mentioning that the possibility of relating games and puzzles to physics is basically something that wouldn’t make sense without our Physics Project.

Beginning about five years ago—particularly energized by our Physics Project —I started looking at harvesting seeds I’d sown in A New Kind of Science and before. Our modern Wolfram Language tools—as well as ideas from our Physics Project—provided some new directions to explore.

So for me it was obvious: if I couldn’t figure out things myself with math, I should use a computer. Mathematical physics. Computation theory. By the late 1970s, though, there were other initiatives emerging, particularly coming from mathematics and mathematical physics. The Emergence of a New Kind of Science.

Indeed, so confident was he of his programming prowess that he became convinced that he should in effect be able to write a program for the universe—and make all of physics into a programming problem. It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus).

And for example the concept of “temperature” is there because exponential distributions familiar from statistical physics happen to be being used, but there’s no “physical” connection—at least so far as we know.) In this particular case, we can use known laws of physics to work it out.

And so being able to just get some great people at the table, some of the amazing sponsors that we have, and I would say the successes have really been at this point, having students who worked with us, you know, back in 2016 to now see them in college and pursuing computer science. I’m a prospective computer science major there.”
