There is not a clear consensus among anarchic physicists how anarchic physics is defined. There seem to be three prevailing notions however:
1) Conventional Anarchic Physics The physical world is governed primarily by laws, and physicists have discovered these laws in part. The currently accepted laws of physics are not irrefutable. Most, or all, current laws of physics actually have exceptions and/or need to be redifined. These exceptions are common, possibly even more common than occasions that follow the laws. These exceptions may opperate under a fuller definition of current laws, under undiscovered laws, or under no law at all. This view is also called traditionalist anarchic physics.
2) Complete Anarchic Physics The physical world opperates without physical laws. While models may be designed to show what happens in a certain situation, these models are too inexact, have too many exceptions, and are not reliable enough to ever be considered as laws. In general, existence opperates on chaos and disorder, with only mild resemblance of order or defined patterns. This view is also called pure or absolute anarchic physics.
3) Intermediate Anarchic Physics This view is a mediation between conventional and complete viewpoints. The natural world operates at least in part on laws, but most of the currently accepted laws are wrong. The true laws of physics are usually considered complex and not all-encompassing, possesing their own exceptions.
SAAP officially tends towards an intermediate viewpoint. Members, however, are not forced to accept this view and can hold any varying opinions on the existence and nature of natural laws.
More Questions on AP and SAAP
Why Haven't I heard of AP or SAAP?
As was stated, AP is a new field. Most traditional physicists would probably consider our views heretical, rebelious, or at least misguided. SAAP is a groundswell movement with no sponsorship or approval by other physics organizations.
Where can I learn more on AP?
Unfortunatly, we know of no other resources on Anarchic Physics.
How can I join SAAP
Simply e-mail me, William Dotson. There are no dues, no meetings, no anything. However, you will notice that my e-mail is not provided anywhere on this site. That is because SAAP wants to make sure that the people joining are doing so for proper reasons, and thus any new members must know myself or be recommended to me by another SAAP member.
Currently, SAAP only exists at Northwest Missouri State University's Missouri Academy of Science, Mathematics and Computing. The Academy Society for the Advancement of Anarchic Physics (yes, we know, ASAAP, very funny) is the founding chapter. If interest grows, we would love to see other SAAP chapters founded.
You guys seem way to out there to be true.
Yes, I know that this technically isn't a question so it doesn't belong under "More Questions on AP and SAAP," but this is the only place it'd fit.
Members of SAAP will readily admit that our ideas seem highly unconventional at best. However, it is important to note that the ideas of Copernicus, Galileo, and other famous men of science were not well recieved. Their ideas were eventually accepted as truth. In many cases, these ideas were again proved at least partially incorrect. We view ourselves as a new generation in this line of deepening knowledge and understanding.
