Experimenting with Materials: The Beginning

By John M. Tweddle

An electronic pulse akin to a heartbeat flew in all directions with no size or shape — something similar to a sound of “music” with a volume only relative to a kind of receiver (ear) — dancing freely everywhere at once without concern for definition. And it was one with millions of colors and there was no starting and no stopping. Voices were heard and seen and felt. And drumbeats pulsated constantly and the infinite “universe” breathed the breath of life everywhere, inhaling and exhaling forever.

And you and me and them — it all happened in seconds, endless seconds.

The first humans didn’t start as a couple, they started as trillions of couples. Spiders, frogs, birds, worms, skunks, alligators, fleas, elephants and all the trillions of endless life forms that we “humans” have never seen or only dreamed of — swirling, throbbing, popping multiplying forever.

There is a land — an island deep in space — where the life forms live on a gas or air that we humans have no name or concept for, and they survive comfortably at temperatures of 1,200 degrees Celsius.

There is another land wherein the inhabitants are invisible to humans. They love it when the temps are a thousand below zero. They breath pure helium and cannot hear anything.

There are living creatures right here on planet earth who can walk right through concrete walls as if the walls were air. There are creatures here which can create petrified wood in 50 years.

We all know that there is intelligence and complex order in this life. What no human knows is, what this “GOD” is or what shape or form it takes.

But, many pretend to.
