Sensible Universe

You have 5D? Me too!

Two paths to understanding

To Professor Filip Strubbe

Dear Professor Strubbe, if this essay reaches you:

Your work on crystallizing spacetime and the τ-dimension, published in Scientific Reports January 2026, represents a profound breakthrough. This essay proposes that your τ-dimension might be identical to the Q (qualia) dimension of the Sensible Universe Model—the same fifth dimension studied from complementary perspectives (physics vs. consciousness).

The structural parallels are striking:

• Both use M₄ × fifth dimension product structure
• Both resolve foundational mysteries through dimensional expansion
• Both keep fundamental level deterministic/real
• Both propose apparent mysteries arise from dimensional projection

The perceptual moment (~80ms) might be the timescale where your τ-crystallization (quantum → classical) coincides with consciousness integration (physical → experiential).

If you’re interested in exploring potential connections between τ and Q, between crystallizing spacetime and conscious experience, between quantum gravity and consciousness studies, I would welcome dialogue.

Perhaps we’re discovering the same reality from different angles—physics from outside, consciousness from inside—converging on truth that requires both perspectives for completeness.

With profound respect for your groundbreaking work,

Frederik
