How Artwork Was Used to Obtain Unambiguous Empirical Evidence of Superdeterminism

11:45 am – 11:57 am
Presenter: Manuel S Morales (Rowan College at Burlington County)

The United Nations has designated 2025 as the 'International Year of Quantum Science and Technology' in recognition of the 100-year anniversary of the theory of quantum mechanics. It has been argued that quantum mechanics is a fundamental theory. This argument has been assumed to be settled with the closure of most of the loopholes of John S. Bell's theorem. However, the Method of Everything successfully tested the one remaining loophole of Bell's theorem, i.e., superdeterminism. The unambiguous empirical evidence of superdeterminism means that quantum mechanics is not a fundamental theory as currently recognized. It also means that Albert Einstein was correct about quantum mechanics being an incomplete theory. This presentation will explain why artwork was used to test if the universe is super-deterministic.
