#433 โ€“ Sara Walker: Physics of Life, Time, Complexity, and Aliens

And we think that there might be structure below that, but we can't get there yet with our technology. So what's fundamental, the way we talk about it in current physics is not actually fundamental. It's the boundaries of what we can observe in our universe, what we can see with our technology. And so if you want to build a theory that's about us and about what

What's inside the universe that we can observe, not what's at the boundary of it. You need to talk about objects that are in the universe that you can actually break apart to smaller things. So I think the things that are fundamental are actually the constructed objects.

They're the ones that really exist and you really understand their properties because you know how the universe constructed them because you can actually take them apart. You can understand the intrinsic laws that built them. But the things at the boundary are just at the boundary. They're evolving with us, and we'll learn more about that structure as we go along.

But really, if we want to talk about what's fundamental inside our universe, we have to talk about all these things that are traditionally considered emergent, but really just structures in time that have causal histories that constructed them and are really actually what our universe is about.

I think so, yeah. I think for me, the frontier in modern physics, where the new physics lies is not in high energy particle physics. It's not in quantum gravity. It's not in any of these sort of traditionally sold, this is going to be the newest, deepest insight we have into the nature of reality. It is going to be in studying the problems of life.
