Abstract
Abstract Our cognisance of reality is limited by the digital nature of the human brain. The idea of an analogue world, whilst convenient to mathematicians, conflicts with the manifest success of quantum mechanics. I introduce a simple structure for the chromosomes, which evolved to facilitate their replication. Its potential for storing and processing information is compared with the standard neural network model. An anthropocentric world view emerges, consistent with observations in every branch of science but challenging its axioms. From this perspective, big bang cosmology, the concept of time as a dimension and the ubiquity of spheres are reviewed. Calculations of the age of the Universe, lengths of day and Sun spot cycle are presented. The periodic table of the elements is derived using planes rather than particles. The cosmos is compared with an X-ray diffraction pattern. Congruity of patterns in music, language and psychology are argued and empirical tests proposed.
