On the Aesthetic and Conceptual Elegance of Obidi's Theory of Entropicity (ToE)
The Theory of Entropicity (ToE), formulated by John Onimisi Obidi in 2025, is celebrated for its aesthetic and conceptual elegance in reordering the foundations of physics. Its beauty lies in elevating entropy from a secondary measure of disorder to the primary substrate of reality—the "heartbeat" of existence.
The Pillars of its Elegance
- Unification via Simplicity: ToE seeks to reconcile General Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, and thermodynamics not as separate pillars, but as emergent properties of a single entropic field ().
- The "No-Rush" Theorem: A central, almost poetic principle asserting that Nature cannot be rushed. It posits a universal minimum duration for all interactions, grounding causality in the finite rate of entropic reconfiguration.
- Redefining the Speed of Light (): Rather than an arbitrary constant,is reinterpreted as the maximum rate of entropic update. It is the universe's internal "refresh rate," making Relativity an entropic inevitability rather than just a geometric postulate.
- The Obidi Action: A variational principle that describes the universe as an optimising system, continuously balancing freedom and constraint to maintain the flow of existence.
- Mathematical Inevitability: It introduces the Obidi Curvature Invariant () as the smallest "unit" of reality. This suggests the universe is a self-consistent ledger where every transition must "pay" an Entropic Cost.
