| Fractal Time Software |
|---|
In response to sustained interest in the theory of Timewave Zero this Fractal Time software is now available again, directly from the developer. This is version 7.10. It is a tool for exploring and for evaluating the theory. This theory (also known as 'Novelty Theory') was developed by Terence McKenna from the early 1970s to the late 1990s, and was first described in the book The Invisible Landscape (1974) by him and his brother Dennis.

The user manual for the software has the following five sections. The first two can be read here; the last three are supplied with the software.
This software (in its final form) was written in the late 1990s and the source code has been lost (so the program cannot be modified). There are some problems due to its age, as follows:
- Operating systems: This software is not compatible with Windows Vista or with Windows 2000. It runs only under Windows 98, Me, and XP (and also MS-DOS). It will run on a Macintosh computer using a Windows emulator (it has been reported to run OK on a Mac Book Pro using a program called "Parallels") or using an implementation of Windows XP on a dual-processor Mac.
- Non-export of graphs: There is an option at the main menu (option G) for copying a graph to the clipboard (so as to paste it into a graphics program). This worked OK when the software was run under Windows 98 but it does not work with Windows XP. Unfortunately no fix for this is known (please write to support@hermetic.ch if you find one).
- Reloading screens: When saving the details of all twelve screens to a text file (option L at the main menu), for later reloading, the default file extension .scr should not be used; use rather .txt.
A single-user license for the Fractal Time software costs US$19.00, €14.25 or £12.75. Please read the statement of problems above and also the readme.txt file which accompanies the software (this includes the license terms) before purchasing a user license.

All of this software was developed by Peter Meyer during 1990-1999 (he also wrote the user manuals and is the author of this Hermetic Systems website).
The 3d images of the timewave on this page were done by Aix (to whom thanks).

The theory of the timewave is the theory which follows from
the "revealed" axiom that all phenomena are at root constellated by a wave form which is the hierarchical summation of its constituent parts, morphogenetic patterns related to those in DNA. ... We argue that the theory of the hyperspatial nature of superconductive bonds, and the experiment we devised to test that theory, yielded ... a modular wave-hierarchy theory of the nature of time that we have been able to construe, using a particular mathematical treatment of the I Ching, into a general theory of systems, which illuminates the nature of time and organism and provides an idea model which explains the interconnection of physical and psychological phenomena from the submolecular to the macrocosmic level.But— Dennis and Terence McKenna, The Invisible Landscape, original (1975) edition, pp. 101-103.
Technology's history exemplifies what is termed an autocatalytic process: that is, one that speeds up at a rate that increases with time, because the process catalyzes itself. ... One reason ... is that advances depend upon previous mastery of simpler problems. ... [Another] is that new technologies and materials make it possible to generate still other new technologies by recombination.— Jared Diamond, Guns, Germs and Steel (1997), pp. 258-259.
And
To feel that time has become hastier, even as the interval remaining narrows, is a vertigo to which the Gnostic religion is almost uniquely fit to minister. Time, according to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, is the mercy of Eternity: it is redemptive. That purports to be another beautiful idealism, and yet it is a lie, one that profoundly works against the spark that can help to hinder our hastening to a nihilistic consummation. ...In the Gospel of Thomas, the Gnostic Jesus emphasizes that we never were created, and so there is no need for an end-time. We began before the beginning, and we will be here after the supposed Apocalypse [or Eschaton]. What then can your birth really have been, if what is oldest, best, and most yourself never passed through birth?
— Harold Bloom, Omens of Millennium (1996), pp. 244-247.
