Where do physical laws come from? This SE Press bridge essay explores the foundations, emergence, and contingency of physics, probing whether laws are universal, contingent, or evolving. Discover Scientific Existentialism’s plural protocols for auditing causality, complexity, and the origins of cosmic order.

Why is there something rather than nothing? This SE Press bridge essay explores the oldest question in metaphysics, examining contingency, causality, and the boundaries of explanation. Discover Scientific Existentialism’s plural, recursive, and challenge-driven approach to existential cosmology.

Are universal constants fixed, or could they have been otherwise? This SE Press paper star-scores major accounts—necessity, chance, multiverse, and dynamic protocol—showing our “constants” may be spectrum-indexed, emergent, and open to upgrade via live registry and audit.

Why is there something rather than nothing? This paper delivers a warrant-scored, registry-audited answer: “nothing” is a dead category—our best models, like the Spectral Gravitation Framework (SGF), show quantum foam is the irreducible, eternal base. All structured reality arises from this necessary substrate; physics finds absence unworkable and “somethingness” unavoidable.

Explores the fundamental origins of existence and the universe, contrasting classical, cyclic, and multiverse hypotheses with the Spectral Gravitation Framework (SGF)—a novel, testable model that treats quantum foam as the subtle, indivisible, and necessary origin of all physical reality.

Cosmologists have long described the birth of the universe as a singularity—an infinitely dense, dimensionless point where physical laws melt away. The Spectral Gravitation Framework (SGF) offers an alternative: the universe as a living, adaptive system that emerges from a finite, intricately ordered “spectral knot,” spun from the churning chaos of quantum foam.
