The Domino–Flicker Framework: A Unified Pre-Geometric Theory of Emergent Spacetime, Black Holes, Radiation Echoes, and Controlled Dimensional Time Travel

Title: The Domino–Flicker Framework: A Unified Pre-Geometric Theory of Emergent Spacetime, Black Holes, Radiation Echoes, and Controlled Dimensional Time Travel Authors: Tony Leo — Independent Researcher, Springfield, Missouri, USA Description: The Domino–Flicker Framework (DFF) is a unified pre-geometric theory in which spacetime, black holes, and the observable universe emerge from a transfinite substrate called the flicker-realm — a sea of zero-dimensional proto-particles globally entangled across dynamically fluctuating dimensions. At the heart of the framework is a dimensional uncertainty principle, which governs how proto-particles redistribute across dimensions and drives a singularity-free pre-Big Bang cosmology. Rather than beginning with a Big Bang singularity, the DFF proposes a natural pre-Big Bang phase characterised by transfinite energy density that smoothly transitions into standard cosmological evolution. Black holes are recast as higher-dimensional throats through which quantum information is nonlocally redistributed — never destroyed — offering a novel resolution to the black hole information paradox without invoking firewalls or complementarity. A key observational consequence is the prediction of radiation echoes: secondary pulses following gravitational-wave or X-ray signals from compact objects, with precise timescale and amplitude predictions testable by LIGO, LISA, NICER, and Fermi. The framework further develops a theoretical pathway toward controlled dimensional time travel, with energy requirements reduced through three mechanisms: dimensional leeching from the vacuum, vibrational stabilisation via nano-transducers, and Calabi–Yau compactification volume scaling drawn from string theory. The paper includes a detailed comparison with Loop Quantum Gravity, String Theory, Causal Set Theory, and existing pre-Big Bang cosmologies, a proposed experimental apparatus for laboratory-scale dimensional phase alignment, six explicit falsifiable predictions spanning gravitational-wave, X-ray, gamma-ray, and neutrino observatories, and a full derivation appendix. Thirty-three references ground the work in the existing literature.
