Mother of the singularity, Queen of the Superficial

My entry for round 2 of #biocup2022

Theme: Numbers

Sub-theme: 4

 

This fourth-dimensional entity travels the multiverse birthing galaxies, using the immense gravitational effects of black holes on spacetime to tether star clusters together.

 

I tried to showcase the theme of 4 by referencing both the breakdown of Einstein’s equations at the singularity of a black hole, as well as my inspiration for the build; the #muse song “supermassive black hole” on their 4th album “black holes and revaluations.” Specifically, my build tries to echo the line “queen of the superficial;” tying the phrase to the nature of black holes themselves:

 

The 4 dimensions of spacetime are predicted by Einstein to collapse at the singularity, an impossibility in our physical world. To be able to see how our 4-dimensional reality actually behaves at these extremes, we would need to be able to look inside a black hole. However, it has been recently hypothesized that this information may be stored within the event horizon, thus making black holes themselves queens of the superficial.
