It is no exaggeration to say that all phenomena are considered by con-
temporary science to be examples of amplitude positions within a radi-
ation continuum.
One of the most interesting aspects of late twentieth-
century science was the reappearance of the Pythagorean doctrine of the
vibratory harmony of matter, that all things are the result of harmonic ratios. “Superstring” theory proposes that all fun-damental particles (elec-
trons, quarks, leptons, muons, etc.) are but differing vibratory frequencies
of a single filamentous string. According to this latest development in
theoretical physics the entities that are the ultimate constituents of atoms
are but differing vibratory levels of a single substratum imagined as a
string or line. Matter, then, actualizes the form of an image observed in an
oscilloscope: a single line forms on the screen (its lowest vibratory state),
which, when “energized,” begins to change shape into a wave (an electron
perhaps) that eventually becomes a chaotic, spaghetti-like image observed
at its highest vibratory level. In superstring theory each level of vibration,
from undisturbed filament to violent spaghetti-chaos (and all states in be-
tween), represents some fundamental particle.
