The No Treason Podcast Ep. 32: Electricity, Speed of Light & Phi Cubed

from Badlands Media · host Badlands Media

Part 6 of the ether series is where the rubber meets the road, or more accurately, where the light meets the wire. Jonathan Drake and Polymath revisit the Divided Line, the Golden Gnomon, and the water molecule before introducing two new concepts that reframe everything. First: the so-called speed of light is not a speed at all. It is the hysteresis rate of the ether, the rate at which the medium can compress, rarefy, and return to rest. Second, and more practically, electricity is not a stream of electrons bouncing around inside a wire. It is light with a boundary condition. Free range light becomes caged light the moment you give it a conductor to follow. Generators spin up little dielectric dynamos inside atoms. Radio towers release bounded light as radio waves. And when your wire gets too hot, it is because the dielectric stress exceeded the conductor's capacity and had to escape as heat, which is also just light. When you understand this, the word electricity starts to look very different.
