Banging the Big B.

I wrote this some two years ago. Someone somewhere asked:
What happened before the Big Bang?

So I wrote (more or less :)

What happened before the Big Bang?
Probably the Big Foreplay.
Or maybe even the Little Silliness for what we'll ever know.

What if what we construct as the Big Bang was nothing more that the popping into our space-time of something like [choose pretty whirly region in the image below] this?



What if the Universe is actually bigger, like a lot bigger, than we commonly imagine?
What if gravitational/time/c/whatever distortions make us see what we see outside our solar system in a, well distorted sort of way, and on top of it we filter that through a, well, distorted convention of reality, or we'd see it a lot more like [choose pretty whirly region in the image above]?

In other words, what if we don't even need the Big Bang (let alone Creation:) to explain the Mandelbrotian God/Universe?

If we just see it as a constant unfolding of the Divine Iteration through a multi-dimensional space-time continuum, it just fits in a lot more smoothly with the Mandelbrotian Pantheist concept.

And that's all I had to say about that.
