So he thought, well, that's affirmation that, you know, we're on the right track here. So we'll set that as the end date. And it should happen at that time. And, well, he didn't live to see it, you know. But there was a lot of excitement about that date because of the Mayans and largely because of the memes that Terrence had released into the memosphere.
A lot of people were excited about that date and they expected something to happen. As you know, there were watch parties. People were going down to Palenque and places like this to wait for it and so on. I remember. Nothing happened. You know, it was like the biggest non-event in human history. You know, so that was, to my mind, that was the definitive moment.

you know, invalidation of the time wave. I mean, Terrence and I used to have โ we used to argue about the time wave or shall we say have lively discussions because I was a skeptic and I was saying for all sorts of reasons, this doesn't really โ it's not really a map of time, you know. I mean, the idea was that the wave โ describe the aggression of novelty into the continuum.

This is a concept that goes back to Alfred North Whitehead. Alfred North Whitehead talks about novelty as something that appears. Novelty is Novelty is basically that every day something happens that never before occurred in the history of the universe. You know, novel events, right?

And the time wave is an attempt to chart the ingression of novelty into the continuum, the ingression of novel events, and to quantify them, you know? And that was what it supposedly did, charted novelty.

And the end of the time wave was the ultimate ingression of novelty when this would all collapse into a singularity because the cycles were a spiral getting tighter and tighter all the time, right? Going back really billions of years or even trillions of years. But in the last nanoseconds of the time wave โ everything was going to just collapse. It would be a complete transformation.

And so that was the theory. That was the idea.

Right. And the fractal nature of time. All of these cycles were fractals of each other getting tighter and tighter and tighter until finally they're basically nanoseconds and even less. So it's like a... You know how a black hole is a singularity based on mass, and if it's small enough, you get a singularity. Well, this was a temporal singularity.
