We are concerned with the interface between mind and matter where language, thought, logic, geometry and physics come together. Many great spirits known to us, from Aristotle to Graßmann, over Peirce and Clifford to Rota and Zellweger, have dealt with this problem. We invented various simple logical alphabets in the past. But those were still too complicated to clearly depict the entirely natural connection between logic and spatio-temporal processes. The situation became clear to me at a stroke when I was able to connect the logic of the modular lattices, similar to the ones outlined by Gian-Carlo Rota, with the commutative modules of the Clifford Algebra of Minkowski’s space-time. The latter are commutative lattices with a 1-norm, and therefore additionally they can represent elementary particles synchronously composed by fermions. The commutative logic modules are morphogenetic structures of perception with a plane orientation. They turn into non-commutative Clifford algebras by a surprising act of combinatorics featuring what we call an ‘observation’. Thus it is our specific ability to think logically and to use compasses that, via perception and observation creates time and entanglement. I will try to present this fundamental insight in basic algebraic notation so that most of us can understand it. Bottom line might be: our syncronous universe is a feature of thought. It does not exist in the way we like it to.
