Michael Grbel, July 2025 The Delay-Based Model (Paperback)

Paperback. This book presents a theoretical framework exploring the emergence of mass, space, and time from a light-like origin state, denoted as c*. Rather than treating the speed of light as a limiting boundary, the delay-based model interprets it as the fundamental source from which physical structure arises through progressive delay and projection. Within this framework, mass is understood as bound delay, time as an emergent ordering process, and space as a stabilized projection geometry. Core concepts from relativity, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics are reinterpreted within a unified delay-based structure, not by replacement but by recontextualization. The work deliberately minimizes formal mathematics where possible. This is not presented as a virtue, but as a conscious choice to prioritize conceptual clarity and accessibility in the discussion of foundational questions. Mathematical formalisms are treated as secondary descriptions rather than as the origin of physical meaning. The model further explores gravitation, black holes, quantum entanglement, thermodynamic limits, and supratemporal consciousness. References include both foundational literature and recent observational results, such as those from the Event Horizon Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope. The book is intended as a speculative but internally consistent contribution to ongoing discussions at the intersection of physics, cosmology, and the philosophy of science.
