My Mind

This blog exists to chronicle the myriad ideas I have, that I will sadly never have the resources to complete. Enjoy, and do well with them. Also anyone wishing to support me in my endeavours is encouraged to visit this page to see Some Images I've produced.

Infinity Theory

Infinity theory: If one were to stop experiencing time, one would be able to see an infinite number of possible paths to take. If one were to set oneself 'back' along the acknowledged timeline one would see an even greater infinity of branching paths. Multiple infinities. Each branch, since the first human consciousness, has had an infinity of branches immediately adjacent. Each one of those had an infinity. Therefore time in the linear expression that we seem to experience, and the history that we study, is merely a long strand of possible links which could have just as easily been a different one, and in fact were, in someone's history. Time is infinity, and infinity is time. Time is not a collection of things that happened, it is a fabric of things that can happen and do happen, and do not happen. All of this happens an infinite number of times per unit of time, the smallest of which is not even measurable by current science. Of course measuring this unit of time is futile anyway because time is not a measurable substance or distance, so to measure time one must measure infinity, and if one can measure infinity, then one is God, and if one is God, then one would not need to measure time. Therefore the linear measure of time is of no intrinsic value.

Modular Arrow Heads

This was an idea to create a set of arrowheads with interchangeable parts. Unfortunately I couldn't make the parts, I managed to build the center posts and they're kind of useful as practice tips, but without the other parts available they're not much else.

Magnetic Agitator for Fluorescent Lights

This is a concept I came up with trying to solve the issue of inadequate electricity to run lights in certain situations, as well as the large power requirements of certain kinds of lasers which makes them impractical to carry.

Shoe Re-Treader

I have some good shoes. I buy them on a regular basis. The body of them is very sturdy, but the soles get worn out too fast. I designed these as a solution to this, but I haven't been able to build them because I don't have the right materials, specifically I need some plate steel for the bottom and sides of the press. Anyway, if you would like to build these and show the results I would love to see that.

Linear Steam Generator

This design is meant to be an ultracompact method of generating electricity with steam. By removing the need for pivot points and large inertial wheels, the whole thing will weigh 60% less than a traditional steam generator with the same power output.

Solid Energy Field Generator

This concept works on the same idea that creates the EM field around the earth. This aparatus would easily scale up or down nearly infinitely for varied applications. Also I believe the field, and of course the field effects, could be made to form any number of physical shapes by simple manipulation of the ambient magnetic field. This technology would also make space travel a lot less risky for living things, creating a solid barrier around the vessel one would not have to worry about micrometeors or solar flares.

Quick Light Diffused Lantern

This concept is very simple, and basically uses garbage. Small cell bubble wrap is wrapped around an LED array. LED arrays are usually quite direct, which is good in some cases, but if you want to evenly light a room or tent up, it should be diffused. Best part is all you need is the light, the bubble wrap, and some tape. The photos demonstrate how it works. It's facing straight up in the first one, then off to the right in the second.

Sonic Zombie Lure

Very basic idea, no diagram. You find one of those annoying singing birthday cards, tie a string to the front flap and place a very small rock on it. Run the string in the likely path the zombie would take. When it trips over it coming to you, it will instead be drawn to the card that is now playing crappily encoded birthday songs. This will give it a new target, and you a warning that there's one nearby.

Refillable CO2 Pepper Spray

This idea is designed as a reusable aerosol launch system for any liquid, most likely pepper spray. I bought a CO2 based air duster and thought this up. The device is only designed to take the larger cartridge in the photo, but if you put a penny or a dime in the bottom, a small one for an airgun will fit nicely.

Solar Charge Palm Light

This is a simple modification of your average sloarlight path marker. You take the stem and the clear bell jar off, and gently grind the end off the LED. You mount the LED into a stationary position with epoxy or some other kind of very solid glue. When you're not using it at night, turn it off. During the day turn it on and leave it right side up to charge. This item is designed for low impact lighting in dark situations. Enough to see by, but not enough to cut a huge swath and draw unwanted attention.

Butanated Water

A concept idea for which there's no diagram because it's a simple chemistry idea. Carbonated water contains carbon dioxide and is mostly harmless. This would apply the same technique but dissolving butane in the water instead. This combination would be a steam explosive. Using a regular blasting cap would set off the butane while it's still dissolved in the water, which would flash boil the whole mix. This steam would rapidly expand and with nowhere to go but out it would flash steam everything in its effective radius. This would be most effective in a small confined space. I have actually tested this and it is possible to dissolve butane in water. You have to pump the butane in liquid form, into the water at least 30% the depth of the container you're using. I've never actually set this off however because I don't have access to blasting caps. If someone wants to try this and let me know how effective it actually is I'd love to see that.

Zero Contact Rubber Baffle Firearm Silencer

The weapon accessory works on the principle of removing the sound of a gunshot a little bit at a time as the projectile travels through it.

Antigravity Bubble Generator

This is a concept piece based on a study from the 1950s that never got done. Basically it posited that opposing magnetic forces could negate gravity in a certain area. They proposed spinning two solid magnetic discs in opposite directions. My thought was that those objects would not create enough magnetic 'friction' for the idea to work, so I came up with this.

Plasma Weapon Concept

This concept weapon is designed to use the existing ability to create plasma for short periods using fire and radiation. The safest way, if such a thing exists, is to use microwave radiation, so that's what this is based on.

Compression Spring Big Bore air rifle

This is a concept piece designed for reliability and sustainability in the event the user can't reach civilization but still needs to hunt or defend himself. The entire concept drawing at this time is 26.5 inches long. The images are sectioned so you can read the text.
