Abstract

In the early 1990’s Chris Illert presented studies in conchology showing that sea shell growth followed a universal algorithm which discovery required a lifting from Euclidean space to a 6D iso-Euclidean space. He also showed that growth of branching sea shells required the existence of non-trivial categories of time, namely forward motion in forward time and backward motion in forward time, the last time category not only presupposing iso-Euclidean spacetime, but also isodual spacetime.

This was the first specialist study requiring the use of supra-Euclidean geometry identical with the iso-, geno- and hypergeometries pioneered by Ruggero Maria Santilli and underlying the revolution in physics lifting quantum mechanics to hadronic mechanics. The paper seeks to clarify the implications of this breakthrough for a general theory of time, and with some further extrapolation into the field of psychology and mental spacetimes. Also, the paper will discuss implications for a general theory of time from the Kozyrev school of causal mechanics, the Global Scaling Theory of Hartmut Müller and the theory of universal rewrite and nilpotent vacuum developed by Peter Rowlands.
