Max talks to cosmologist Anthony Aguirre about the fundamental nature of the universe, with the following questions:
Is the Space Discrete or Continuous?
How does our physics differ from Virtual Reality, or the model we have in our brain?
What is Fourier space?
What does it mean that the universe is made of information?
Is there a fundamental bit?
In most cases, things aren’t what they seem! Check out Anthony’s Book on the subject: Cosmological Koans.
