Abstract
The ‘minion’, a coiled molecular abacus comprising 1,701 DNA base pairs bound to 189 protein units, evolved to pack chromosomes for efficient replication, explains human intelligence better than ‘neural networks’. Its 18*63 array of orderly hydrogen bonds connecting amino acids to phosphates stores an 18-character ‘word’. Memory recall involves resonance between similar minions, nerve fibres serving as wave guides and synapses as gates. Dynamically, they constitute 18-handed clocks, their time unit, τ ≈ 1.4*10-15 secs, and longest conceivable time, 6318 τ ≈ the ‘age of the universe’ limit our perception. In physics, τ replaces Planck’s constant. A hyperbolic function, the ‘Tyger equation’ corrects a wrap-around counting ‘error’, β=63-9 creating relativity twixt perception and conception. Light appears to follow a boomerang-like trajectory, our perception of space is warped, reinterpreting gravity and rendering plane surfaces as spheres. Mathematical logic using 0, ∞ and infinitesimal calculus creates an illusory world model. Familiar situations confirm Einstein’s spooky action at a distance. Substituting a set of nine polyhedrons reminiscent of Plato’s perfect solids for electron orbitals offers new insights to Mendeleev’s periodic table of elements. Protons accelerated by oscillating H-bonds through minion tunnels have sufficient energy to fuse with obstructing nuclei. Perhaps the γ-rays (evidenced by correlations with the periods and frequencies of pulsars) could be harnessed to supply power. Modelling computers and data-bases on minions could create user-friendly interfaces compensating for personality differences and facilitating understanding and agreement.
