- Comment on Is there a "canvas" of the universe? Do we even know? Would a canvas follow the same laws as the paint? 1 week ago:
Well, I am pleasantly proven wrong, thanks! Yes, I was thinking of general relativity, you are correct.
These oscillations would be different particles (electrons, protons)
Are you saying that the particles are oscillating in reaction to your hand bouncing the mesh, like a handful of marbles on a bed bouncing around? What constitutes a “hand push” in the real world? A high energy collision like at the LHC? Or day to day interactions between objects?
This is very fascinating, although I can’t help but see a similarity between the two canvases. Is that just because they are both so complex that we need simple metaphors to try and wrap our heads around the concepts?

My understanding is that quantum physics is the study of the incredibly small, and general and special relativity are the study of everything else. They don’t overlap (rules for big don’t work for small, and vice versa) and are two separate understandings. Which is why the, hopefully, next big thing will be a unifying theory that applies to everything. I believe Stephen Hawking was a well known scientist working on finding a universal theory.
Which doesn’t really answer your question, but it’s a question far surpassing my knowledge. I think quantum mechanics just doesn’t interact with spacetime, or at least not in a meaningful way (mass of an electron is so incredibly small it isn’t perceptively effected by spacetime curves).
I would be happy for someone with more knowledge to come and prove me wrong though, these are fascinating fields.

Who knows? Are we in a bubble floating in a higher dimensional sea of different bubbles? Is it nothing, like a balloon expanding in the vacuum of space?

I believe what you are looking for is spacetime which is the foundation that all of the universe exists on. My layman’s understanding is that objects with mass “curve” or “bend” spacetime around them and this is actually how gravity effects objects. An object moving along a straight path (from it’s perspective if on a small enough scale) which is actually following a curved path of spacetime will move in a curved path.
This gives a visual representation of the curving of spacetime.
This shows how a super massive object like a white dwarf or black hole distorts and eventually “breaks” spacetime.
