Listen "Is Information the Fifth Form of Matter? Ft. Dr Melvin Vopson"
Episode Synopsis
It’s possible there’s a fifth form of matter out there, and you might be using it right now.
University of Portsmouth research stretches across the disciplines to help us understand our world better. And in today’s episode of Life Solved we hear from one academic who might be about to transform our concept of reality!
Dr Melvin Vopson thinks he might have found the missing piece to understanding matter in our universe, and he’s planning an experiment to find out if “information” is the fifth form of matter.
Get ready for some complex physics, brilliant theory and a workout for your mind as Melvin takes us through this exciting new theory – and its possible implications!
