Totto (Thor Henning Hetland) — Oslo, April 2026
The paper opens with an unusual kind of honesty.
The theory is either a legitimate revolutionary breakthrough or an incredibly detailed, compelling work of fiction. And — the author writes — the only way to find out is to actually try to build it.
That sentence is why I started running experiments.
I spent Easter Monday doing something I hadn't done before: running a quantum physics experiment on real hardware. Not a textbook exercise, not a tutorial circuit — an actual measurement designed to test a specific theoretical prediction. I won't go into what we were testing or whose work it relates to, but I want to share what the experience was like, because it was more instructive than I expected.
