EVERYTHING FITS TOGETHER
Music and lyrics (c) by Rob Bryanton (SOCAN)

It’s the age old question, it always stays the same
People turnin their eyes up to heaven and callin out names
Some may get an answer, some may turn away
When they don’t want to know too much, cause it’s easier that way
Hidden back between the pages, written in between the lines
There’s a spider’s web of connections there for you to find

Cause everything fits together, you may not see that now
But there’ll come a day, when you’ll see the way
There’s always a why and a how
Everything fits together, it’s all part of the show
Soon there’ll come a day when you’ll see the way
And you’ll know (there’s a reason why, there’s a reason why)
And you’ll know (there’s a reason why, there’s a reason why)
There’s a reason why, there’s a reason why
There’s a reason why you feel the way you do
There’s a reason why you do the deeds you do
There’s a reason why you feel the needs you do
There’s a reason why, there’s a reason why
(There’s a reason why, there’s a reason why)

In this world of wonder, in this world of pain
In this world of mysteries that still remain
There’s a hunger growing, we all would love the chance
To see the hidden strings that sing to make it all dance
Just when you thought the universe couldn’t be any more complex
You started climbing up through the levels, one to the next

Where everything fits together, you may not see that now
But there’ll come a day, when you’ll see the way
There’s always a why and a how
Everything fits together, it’s all part of the show
Soon there’ll come a day when you’ll see the way
And you’ll know
Everything fits together (everything fits together)
Everything fits together
Everything fits together (everything fits together)
Everything fits together


If there is an over-riding theme for the Imagining the Tenth Dimension Project, this is it: "Everything Fits Together". As Gevin Giorbran has so eloquently shown in his book "Everything Forever: Learning to See Timelessness", everything about our universe (and every other possible universe in the multiverse) ultimately folds back together into absolute zero. And, as Seth Lloyd explains so well in his book "Programming the Universe", this unobserved quantum fabric that my way of visualizing the dimensions starts from and ends with is the place where we can understand how "Information Equals Reality". Once you have worked your way through this way of visualizing the ten dimensions, these ideas and many more all fit together.

Many of the videos for my songs are also available at YouTube, if you search for videos by 10thdim. You can audition and buy a high-quality mp3 of this song (and others by Rob Bryanton) at amiestreet.com. Included at amiestreet are 6 channel "stems" of this song and some of the others for remixing and mashups (and you can click here to play with a six-channel mixer that lets you audition and play with those stems). There is also an instrumental track of this song (and others) available from amiestreet for karaoke purposes. Finally, you can also download this song and other items from the tenthdimension digital store, and the items at that store are released under a Creative Commons license.

While I'm grateful to the people who like parts of what I have created enough to want to buy it and help support this project, I hope that everyone can appreciate that Imagining the Tenth Dimension gives away a huge amount of videos, music and information for free. That's because I am interested in getting the ideas behind this project out into the world, as I firmly believe that I have stumbled upon a way of imagining reality which reveals basic truths, and is eventually going to be confirmed by mainstream science. There is a beautiful simplicity to the logic of this way of layering one dimension upon another, and its strength as a visualization tool is no doubt one of the reasons why so many deep thinkers and big dreamers continue to be drawn to the project.

In the meantime, the basic ideas behind this way of imagining are useful to anyone, because it gives us a way to see how Everything Fits Together: the positive and negative, the grouping and symmetry, the long chain of random events and deliberate actions that got us to the "now" that we are currently experiencing. Everything enfolds back into the underlying fabric of reality that this new way of thinking about time and space allows us to hold in our minds.
