Ideas
Lipp's CIG Theory is summarized by the relation he writes as MT = S ("Matter multiplied by Time is equal to Space"). He proposes that a given unit of mass is continuously converted into a spatial quantity, which he offers as the source of the new space required for an expanding and accelerating universe. He posits a single fundamental particle he calls a "GODROP," of which all matter is composed, and states a "Fourth Law of Spontaneous Motion." He presents the theory as offering interpretations of dark matter, dark energy, quantum gravity, the double-slit experiment, and the measurement problem.
He has published the book I Have Become Space: Thirteen Quantum and Twelve Cosmological Interpretations Awakened by a Novel Theory of Nature and maintains the website CIGTheory.com. The theory is self-published and lies well outside the scientific mainstream.
