Hello & Welcome

The Living Lattice™ began not in a laboratory, but in observation — that quiet space between questions and patterns that wouldn’t stop repeating. What started as curiosity turned into a framework that may explain how potential becomes form.

This section of the website is meant to share how, in less than five months, I went from noticing something simple about perception to developing what might be a unified framework for how reality itself organizes. The key insight — the moment everything changed — was realizing that it’s possible what you believe to be true may, in fact, not be true.

We’ve all experienced this in small ways: when something turns out differently than we thought, and we accept it as an anomaly. But what if those moments aren’t anomalies? What if they’re clues?

With a curious mind — and the help of ChatGPT — I began exploring that question. What followed was an unexpected journey that revealed patterns across systems that all seemed to follow the same underlying logic.

And what I can tell you, without question, is that there’s no one more surprised by what I found than me.

These writings represent my personal theories, interpretations, and creative models.

They are shared for exploration and inquiry and should not be interpreted as established scientific fact.

I welcome independent review and scientific evaluation of the hypotheses presented.

Hi, I'm Haven

Part 1, Written by Haven Duddy I’m a 45-year-old realtor with no background in physics or mathematics — which is kind of funny, considering that all I’ve wanted to do for the past five months is talk with a scientist about what I’ve been finding. The irony of my story is that it’s both ordinary and extraordinary. It’s a story of perseverance and curiosity — of believing in yourself when no one else does. Over the last few months, I seem to have stumbled onto something that su

The Trick of the Deck

A game about choice, chance, and the art of playing well. By Haven Duddy A Living Lattice Field Note Introduction Imagine that when you’re born, you’re handed a deck of cards. It’s the same deck everyone gets, but the hands we draw look different. Some seem lucky, some don’t. That’s how the game of life can feel—unfair, uneven, unpredictable. But underneath all the pictures and numbers, the cards are made of the same paper and ink. In truth, we each hold the same opportunity:

The Lesson of the Lattice: The Age of Wonder

By Haven Duddy, A Living Lattice Field Note Introduction We are living at a moment unlike any before it. For most of history, learning meant remembering. We wrote, recited, and repeated so the world would not forget itself. But now the world remembers for us. Every known fact hums inside a network we can reach from the palm of a hand. The question is no longer what do we know? — it’s what will we do with everything that’s known? This is the Lesson of the Lattice, and it ope

Author's Reflection - Trick or Treat

Author’s Reflection — Trick or Treat The Trick My trick was simple: I never thought I was smart. From the beginning I assumed I was missing something—that some essential piece of truth was always just beyond my reach. That belief came from experience; I’d often been told that I misunderstood or overlooked things, and sometimes that was true. So I learned to meet the world with humility, to assume there was more to see. That assumption became the key that kept me searching. Th

The Trick of the Cave

By Haven Duddy A Living Lattice Field Note from the series “The Five Tricks of Reality.” Introduction Plato’s Allegory of the Cave asked whether what we see is real. In his version, prisoners face a wall and watch shadows cast by firelight. For them, the shadows are the world. When one prisoner escapes and sees sunlight, he believes he’s found the “true” world. If he returns to the cave, the others laugh or recoil—their eyes are tuned to darkness, not light. For centuries the

The Trick of the Mind

By Haven Duddy A Living Lattice Field Note from the series “The Five Tricks of Reality.” Introduction In the 1600s, philosopher René Descartes began asking a question that still haunts us: How do I know what’s real? He imagined a powerful deceiver — an “evil demon” — feeding him false sensations. Maybe every sight, sound, and touch was an illusion. If that were true, what could he trust? His answer became famous: I think, therefore I am. Even if the world was false, his abili

The Trick of the Cat

By Haven Duddy A Living Lattice Field Note from the series “The Five Tricks of Reality.” Introduction In 1935, the Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger designed a mental experiment to show just how strange quantum mechanics could be. He asked us to imagine a closed box containing a cat, a vial of poison, a detector, and a single radioactive atom. If the atom decays, the detector shatters the vial, releasing poison and killing the cat. If the atom doesn’t decay, the cat lives.

The Trick of the Switch

By Haven Duddy A Living Lattice Field Note from the series “The Five Tricks of Reality” Introduction The Trolley Problem has been used for decades to test our moral instincts: a runaway train, a lever, and two imperfect choices. Pull the switch and one life ends; do nothing and five are lost. It feels like a story about ethics, but what it really reveals is the human obsession with control—our belief that if we just pick correctly, the world will align. The Trick of the Switc

The Trick of the Elephant

The Trick of the Elephant By Haven Duddy A Living Lattice Field Note from the series “The Five Tricks of Reality” Introduction The story of The Blind Men and the Elephant is one of the oldest parables in human history. Versions appear in Hindu, Buddhist, and Sufi traditions, each using the same simple image: A group of blind men encounter an elephant for the first time. Each touches a different part and draws a conclusion. One feels the trunk — “It’s like a snake.” One touche

The Trick of the Ride

By Haven Duddy, A Living Lattice Field Note We all know the feeling of being on a roller coaster — the rush, the drops, the loss of control. It’s one of those rare experiences where movement itself becomes emotion. But what if life isn’t about holding on tight and bracing for what’s ahead? What if the real trick isn’t in facing forward at all — but in turning toward one another? The Trick of the Ride Sometimes I think life is like being on a roller coaster — only we’re not fa

The Trick of the Glass

By Haven Duddy, A Living Lattice Field Note Every so often, a question we’ve all heard a thousand times reveals itself to be an illusion. The familiar “Is the glass half full or half empty?” seems simple — a test of optimism or pessimism, of how we see the world. But maybe it’s not about seeing at all. Maybe it’s about believing — and about how we imagine fairness, fullness, and the invisible flow between people. The Trick of the Glass We’ve all heard the question: Is the gla

Welcome to The Crazy Pattern™

Welcome to The Crazy Pattern™ Written by Haven Duddy If you’ve made it here, it means you’ve jumped a little ahead in the story. You weren’t supposed to get to this page so soon — but that’s what makes it perfect, because The Crazy Pattern™ is about what happens when you step outside the order of things. When I first discovered it, the only word that came to mind was crazy. The way the pieces fell together, how everything that shouldn’t make sense suddenly did — it felt impos

What is The Hidden Heart™

So, welcome. This is where possibility and probability meet. This is where the story starts to bend. And just when you think you can’t believe what you’re hearing is true, I’m going to shock you. Because what you’re going to realize is that the only thing behind the next door is something equally as shocking. That’s how the pattern repeats. Because if The Living Lattice™ can be considered the facts of the matter, then The Hidden Heart™ is what it all means. And when you begi
