Information "comes out" of a big bang into U_new "all at once", but "falls into" a black hole in U_old "forever", yes? I'm not saying that's contradictory, but rather could make a useful property.

Does your model allow for a resolution space - a void into which bubbles pop? I wouldn't think so. I'd imagine the hub, the 0 point is emergent, and space along with?

Integrated awareness spaces (~"consciousness") seem to share many properties with the universes in this model.

Yeah, each new bubble of spacetime emerges from the singularity and expands. I'm totally open-minded about what lies outside each new spacetime bubble. Or the relationship between all the universes, in their individual spacetime bubbles, generally. (The relationship between rates of time between different universes for instance: I have no idea.) So, yes, overall, I just don't have a theory yet. Very open to suggestions! For simplicity's sake, for now, I am assuming no causal contact between universes, once they are born, but that's just a simplifying assumption. Would love to hear your ideas on this.

This is all fascinating and this Weinersmith PDF is hilarious. I didn’t know his stuff before.

Me neither! Thus my desire to share it. I stumbled across him in my research. That book is so funny and so wise and so information-dense. Comedy is such a great way to get across science, but it's so hard to do. He is definitely underappreciated. And I love the fact that he is a Weiner who married a Smith, and now they are both Weinersmiths. More people should do that.

Excellent good friend. How do you see this now that the data from James webb is out. It sure looks like we going in the right direction! Well done. what next shall we create?

The data from the James Webb has been very encouraging, thus far. I wrote a little bit about that here: https://theeggandtherock.substack.com/p/solid-peer-reviewed-confirmation

I am so glad I discovered this 'stack. It seems we are travelling on parallel lines, but perhaps sometimes in the opposite direction.

I, too, am starting to write a nonfiction book via Substack. It also deals with self organisation. But perhaps my project Only22333 starts at the other end. Here's something complex, where did it come from?

Thanks for the heads-up on a few resources in this post they will help me.

I appreciate how your work stretches my mind. Yoga for the brain

Also it propose it is all organized, as you said, except we humans who were given Free Will to make a mess of it all; similar to when well established, tidy DINKs (double income no kids) believe a baby will make their life complete. Chaos ensues.

We are chaos

Well, thank you Patricia.

And, looking around at my desk right now, I can heartily agree with you; we are chaos!

Thank you for turning me on to an entirely new way of thinking about the universe. The reductionist approach has worked, to a point. It mirrors the dysbiosis between humans and human groups feeding into worsening biosphere collapse. The only way out is to come together, not break apart more.
