About DefineLight.org
DefineLight.org is a small, focused space to rethink light, photons, redshift, and “vacuum” from a discrete perspective, in partnership with AI.
Why “define light”?
In practice, physics uses whatever definition works for calculation and experiment. Photons are sometimes treated as particles, sometimes as wave packets, sometimes as excitations of a field. These pictures can be useful, but they are not always consistent with each other.
This site takes a stricter approach: start from the idea that a photon is a size-zero event and ask what follows if we never betray that assumption. From there, it becomes natural to:
- treat redshift as interaction, not only as expansion,
- treat vacuum as weak ether, not empty nothing,
- see light generation as discrete thresholds, not slow leaking waves.
Discrete thinking and AI
Digital machines operate in finite steps, with finite memory. They do not manipulate actual infinities or continuous media. When we phrase physics in discrete terms, we bring it closer to how AI and computers naturally reason and simulate.
DefineLight.org is written with that in mind: explanations should make sense to a careful reader and also make sense as rules that a machine could implement on a grid or in a simulation.
Scope and limits
This site is not a finished theory of everything. It is a collection of starting points:
- how to define a photon’s birth,
- how to talk about Doppler without hidden waves,
- how to reinterpret redshift and ether discretely.
Many details are deliberately left open. The goal is to make the definitions as clear and finite as possible, so that more detailed models and simulations can be built on top of them.
Contact and future work
There is no contact form on this site yet. For now, treat DefineLight.org as a public notebook: a place to park definitions and ideas while manuscripts, experiments, and simulations continue elsewhere.
Future updates, links to preprints, and experimental documentation will appear on the Notes page.
