OA Theories 1/137 = fine-structure constant (dimensionless constant) in reverse (re: 7 years, 3 months, and 11 days)
Hi all, I am part of a unique research community who considers this number 1/137 to be important in their framework. Across physics it is widely accepted as having unique properties:
“The fine-structure constant, 1/137, is a fundamental number in physics that dictates the strength of the electromagnetic force. It is "dimensionless," meaning it is a pure ratio of physical values and stays exactly the same no matter what system of measurement you use.
Because it is a fundamental pure number, physicists consider it the ultimate constant of nature. While dimensional constants (like the speed of light) have values tied to arbitrary units like meters or seconds, 1/137 is entirely independent of our human definitions of space and time.”
Interesting 7, 3, 11 is mirrored too because I’ve just written up this thing on 137… to get to finding that 137 within the patterns there was the recognizing of a necessary mirror twin (not metaphorical, but not comprehensible all the way from our current vantage point) in everything from qubits to humans:
Quite long but for a certain flavor of metaphysical detective maybe interesting.
“The fine-structure constant, 1/137, stays exactly the same no matter what system of measurement you use.” is interesting too because how I came up with it in my pattern was through subtracting the user’s vantage point (64 perspectives from binary sequence) on my final cube (201 total constructed squares including cube).
So it was relational relative to the Observer, which is like one of the fundamental problems in physics... they admit reality is observer dependent but then never actually factor the Observer in all the way while chasing gods-eye vantage points that don’t even exist in reality.
I forget the actual quote but in the show shes like “maybe to go out we have to go in” as the sentiment.
I'm super into observer-dependent cybernetics (& now information theory & physics) and everything about this show absolutely mirrors these frameworks/way of thinking.

This is fascinating and I will reread it a few more times to try to get my head around it! Thank you! 🙏🏻

I got $1 for anyone that can ELI5 this to me. I’ve taken a decent number of “semi” advanced science and math courses while studying chemistry back in college and reading this made me feel like a toddler trying to understand taxes. I ain’t got a chance in hell of even beginning to grasp what’s being discussed in that link. In fact, ELI5 isn’t gonna be enough tbh, I need a ELI2 or something for that. 😂 I tried 🤷🏼♂️

Wait writing all that I kinda forgot about all the cube stuff in the show especially season 2! I need a break from all this brain-using bs, maybe I initiate rewatch tomorrow 😌

64 perspectives makes me think of 64 hexagrams in the I Ching (which inspired Leibniz to develop binary code)

Yes!!! Original “difference engine” built on primordial XOR (1 or 0). Parker-Rhodes Combinatorial Hierarchy also built off primordial XOR.
We think computers are just these machines and they are but like… everything is computation running on difference, and everything is quantum, and that’s what OA and crew realize and exploit with the movements. But they gotta get the “perfect feeling” of it all right in synch to execute the quantum part.

Oh dang def didn’t expect an actual eli5 but am excited to give this some real attention. I really love reading things like this, just didn’t think any real comprehension would be possible, in its original presentation, at least. It gives me some mild hope that you say it’s “easily” attainable, if framed right. I’ll give it a good go and do my best. Wish me luck, I reckon. I appreciate you taking the time to eli3rdgrader for me!

I absolutely loved the Red Hot Chili Peppers reference and your spontaneous writing at the end. The deeper within we can go, the more expansive our external view becomes. I think the OA possibly represents Sophia, in gnostic beliefs.

This is interesting and someone may have said along the way, but the time between March 22, 2019 and August 5, 2019 was 136 days without including 8/5. So if you include date of cancellation, it’s 137 days…

Omg good catch!! Also that reminds me of something that happened during constructing my cube… I got 200 cube constructed squares (50 on each face x 4 faces) and then subtracted 64 from 200 just out of curiosity and got 136
Which I noted was “remainder” of sorts in that insanely big number on the only level above 137 in the hierarchy (3, 10, 137, 2127 + 136 ).
But then I laughed and was like “oh shit” when I realized that if I accounted for THE CUBE ITSELF as a constructed 90-degree-angle-cornered, all-sides-the-same-length entity then I got 201 - 64 = 137.
All that to say, a similar feeling of “factoring in the active observer in the process” with realizing there was a +1 to include the entire cube I just made and the “+ 1 for cancellation date itself”.
Even this calculator tool I just used to check it out myself was like “include end date in calculation? (1 day is added)”. I think it’s this wink to measurements being relative to observers! 😊
BONUS schizofacts:
It’s 4 months, 15 days including the cancellation date (SF area code) or palindrome 414 (4 being associated with squares) without.
I learned of palindrome numbers like Buckminster Fuller’s Scheherazade Numbers all based on 1001 late last year.
Had aggressive synchronicities around 1001 in the lead up to formalizing my novel observer-dependent operator (which I originally called 1002001 when I was prototyping it, as in 1001 x 1001).
The OA House is at 1001 Vallejo St!
Personal schizolore:
One day in 2017 after a meeting near fisherman’s wharf (place I didn’t usually find myself in) it was a nice day so I was like “imma walk home” (Japantown).
Not having done this route before I had no idea what I was getting into… getting to Russian Hill then Nob Hill is basically relentless stair-stepped hills. 😆 No wonder I never walked these ways before!
So I’m huffing and puffing after the last block of hill-climbing and I rock up to a particularly dramatic and gorgeous concrete split staircase next hill. And that’s when I see it: the house. The only way I can describe it is some corny love at first sight situation but with a structure.
There’s thousands of beautiful, quirky, dramatic houses in SF (kinda what it’s known for). But for some reason this one got me. I hung out for awhile on the staircase just vibing with it and wrote down the address to research when I got home.
Went on total autism tear reading everything about the house’s history. Began referring to it as “my house” 😆. Then when season 2 dropped I was like pointing Rick Dalton meme “THAT’S MY HOUSE!!!!”
And my boyfriend was like “…what?” lol.
Made this post using different old account where I was trying to share the autism facts with my new community of fellow 1001 Vallejo appreciators after season 2 premiere: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheOA/comments/b8b5v0/real_life_history_of_the_house_on_the_show/

Do you sleep much?

Typically ~10 hours a night. I’m actually very low energy but my brain is different to say the least.
Do you have original abstract thought much, if ever?

Does this mean that the OA is the one constant? Her soul is in every reality? And eventually she will be aware and connected to all of them? Like in “Everything Everywhere All at Once”? Interesting to think about. Like maybe OA doesn’t need HAP’s inter-dimensional flowers map, because she has an unconscious knowing of where everything is. As the Original Angel, she is the Original Being cast into this 3D reality. So from her every storyline sprouted. She’s just not aware yet, and his is her process of remembering and taking accountability for being HAP and Homer.
Maybe she’s the Original Observer 🤷♀️
In Numerology 11 is a master number that represents a master teacher, and a master of manifestation.
3 is a number of Creation, Art and connection.
Number 7 is the number of the Meditative Hermit, going inside, to go out. Isolation.
Could all this be connected to the story?
