Fundamentals of Vibrational Physics – An ontological model of fractal process sphere systems from the proton to the macrocosm

This treatise establishes vibrational physics (Schwingungsphysik) as a minimalist natural philosophy and systems theory, breaking with classical physics by rejecting the reduction of energy vortices to dimensionless points and avoiding constructs like dark matter. The cosmos is modeled as a fractal structure of nested process spheres governed by two scale-independent principles: Principle A (inward orientation / vibrational absorption):Plasmas and fields bind photons and form maximum radial energy gradients. Principle B (outward orientation / vibrational emission): Systems emit energy via a global vibrational membrane (e.g., atomic shells or event horizons). Although vibrational physics uses a familiar vocabulary of quantum mechanics (mode changes, energy levels, resonance), it operates outside the conventional QM formalism and represents entirely independent views on the structure of elementary particles (the quarkless proton as a subatomic process sphere) and galactic rotational dynamics. The model culminates in an integrated, neutral theory of consciousness. This theory does not understand cognition as a material byproduct, but rather formulates a theory of causality that assigns a common causal space to all cognitive existences. Consciousness is thus established as the ultimate, internally oriented information processing, thereby closing the fundamental gap between physical vibrational dynamics and conscious perception.
