Testable. Falsifiable. Rigorous.
A theory without testable predictions is not science—it is speculation. C4 Theory makes three specific, falsifiable predictions that can be validated or disproven through observation and experimentation.
These predictions span cosmology, neuroscience, and quantum mechanics. They are not vague philosophical claims. They are precise hypotheses that invite collaboration, challenge, and rigorous testing.
Prediction: The cosmic microwave background (CMB) should contain subtle geometric patterns—concentric circles or spiral structures—that represent "bruises" from the previous aeon. These patterns would be the imprint of supermassive black hole collisions from the prior cycle, preserved through the conformal boundary.
How to Test: Advanced analysis of CMB data from satellites like Planck and future missions could detect these anomalies. If found, they would provide direct evidence of pre-Big Bang structure.
Status: Preliminary analyses by Roger Penrose and collaborators have identified candidate structures. Further investigation is ongoing.
Prediction: Microtubules within neurons should exhibit sustained quantum coherence at biological temperatures, acting as quantum antennae that resonate with spacetime geometry. This coherence would be the mechanism by which consciousness accesses Choice Imprints.
How to Test: Use ultra-sensitive quantum measurement techniques to detect coherence in isolated microtubule structures. Correlate coherence patterns with reported phenomenological experiences (déjà vu, shared memories).
Status: Recent studies have shown unexpected quantum effects in biological systems. Direct microtubule coherence measurement remains an active research frontier.
Prediction: In closed systems where consciousness is present, local entropy should decrease in proportion to the complexity and coherence of conscious activity. This would manifest as measurable "pockets" of anti-entropic order surrounding conscious agents.
How to Test: Design controlled experiments measuring entropy changes in isolated environments with and without conscious observers. Use information-theoretic metrics to quantify the "coherence footprint" of consciousness.
Status: Theoretical framework exists. Experimental design is challenging but feasible with current technology.
These predictions are not the end—they are the beginning. C4 Theory invites rigorous challenge, collaborative testing, and iterative refinement. If you are a researcher, institution, or organization interested in exploring these hypotheses, reach out.
