The Negative Fabric Theory: A Conceptual Model of Gravity and Light
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This paper proposes the Negative Fabric Theory, a new way of picturing space. In this idea, empty space is not “nothing”. It is a negative fabric made of tightly packed, spinning units, a bit like an ocean of tiny balls. The paper uses this picture to explain three things. First, gravity is the pull of objects toward the deepest part of the fabric. Heavy objects sink and spin in it, making waves, and smaller objects held between those waves are what we see as orbits. Second, black holes are objects that have sunk very deep, and the event horizon is where the fabric sinks faster than light can travel. Third, light acts like a wave when the units spin freely and like a particle when they get jammed by a second disturbance, which the paper links to measurement. The paper also gives three ways the theory could be tested. This is an early, conceptual idea and has not been peer reviewed. The maths is left for future work.
