About

The U.M. (short for U-Mentalism) NFT Collection is a project backed by Intellectual Property (Submitted Patents in EPO, USPTO, India, Canada and Japan as of late 2022) of a new computer architecture (CA) and supercomputation model. The CA, in short, replaces the binary code (0’s & 1’s) by (isomorphic) RGB read through typical digital images "pixels" disposed into frames/films, turning it into a cinematic (super)computation model for photonics/laser & fibre optics new information age (Web 3.0 and beyond). It is a rewarding crowdfunding project, once the equivalent (PNG) NFT image “frames” of this U.M. inaugural collection are to be fixed into the new technology processing colour/binary (isomorphic) code, as most valuable collectible & utility NFTs to come. The CA will also evolve to integrate the blockchain system into the Supercomputation model. The new CA was invited to be exhibited in the 48th Edition of the International Exhibition of Inventions in Geneva, Switzerland, where it received the Gold Medal & Diplome in the "Computer Sciences, Sofware, Electronics & Methods of Communication" Class.

Yet, and this is of the utmost importance, the patent has met, because of its shifting paradigm in computation, very obscure and concerted opposition by, until this moment in time, EPO (The European Patent Office), or rather the shadow of the consortium of enterprises that represent the major activity in the global patent system, inevitably with supplementary predatory high fees along the way.

EPO's first report argues that it is “a scientific discovery”, the only legalist escape so to never even produce what every Patent Office should minimally do, which is an authority search report (EPO is an International Searching Authority but declares that no international search report will be established on the basis of the subject matter being a “scientific theory”).

This means that the pending patent for a Unix-based global massively distributed parallel supercomputation-based computer architecture for the coming photonics/laser & fibre optics era in Open-Source licensing runs the real risk of being targeted down by professional lobbyists, for which reason and on which account it is the noblest call to arms to invite everyone to be his own tenderer of (post-)digital cybernetic rights, and also a global trustee of data protection & privacy for actual, but most especially the youngest and newest generations. With all our common effort and the best of aspirations, we´re preparing a bright future for them to shine.

U.M. as a startup has already received its first investment and recently submitted applications for funding, including venture capital firms programs, investment through academic nternational grants, and also through European Union direct funding.

What exactly is U.M. (U-Mentalism)?

U.M. is, simultaneously, a new computer architecture and supercomputation model, as it intends to process/storage, in substitution of the (isomorphic) binary code, the RGB colour model (or, rather, wave-packets of light in pure physics terms) by typical digital image “frames”/”films”, locally at each “pixel”, in cinematic fashion (both processing & memory RGB images code “image”/text & coding text/”images”), by way of Universal Turing-machines working as servers over every Turing-machine on the Internet. Because 1 byte has 256 bits permutations - the same number of permutations per each colour channel of the “pixel” - a “frame” is, upon a standard pixel density conversion standard, computed locally, orthogonally and synchronically likewise its minimal unit - the “pixel” -, the same happening with “films” of RGB colour in cinematic (super)computation. In this his way, it enables exponentially accelerated and massively parallel computation in the photonics/laser & fibre optics new information age (Web 3.0 and beyond), thus making possible, in a broad overview, a new Enlightenment cybernetic age with distributed open source (OS) & scientific supercomputation with (human) oracles acting as (OS) AI trustees and guardians. The goal, all in all, is the promotion of a liberal progressive cybernetic Internetworking Protocols Constitution with the resiliently decentralized, distributed ledger Blockchain technology as its first data structure, thus converging sound value and the Internet´s world wide web.‍

What are the jurisdictions and Patent Reference Numbers of the Intellectual Property behind U.M.?

The patent behind U.M. as a CA is named “Method to Perform Computation at or near the speed of light (typical) digital image-to-binary singular or multiple-nodes/server sand computer architecture” with the International Publication Number WO2021/235960 A2 with the Priority Date: 20 May 2020. The International Applications were submitted in Europe (EP21730302.3), USA (US17/997,391),Canada (CA3181799), India (IN202247061191) and Japan (JP2022-571258).

What ought to be created by U.M. as a computer architecture and supercomputation model?

Because U.M. is an inversion of the von Neumann computer architecture model, its model has, too, a direct exponential impact, both in feasibility and computational complexity definition terms, on both the von Neumann bottleneck, and on the nº1 problem in Computer Science: the P vs NP problem. Taking this basis of an exponential supercomputational model on Universal Turing-Machines over every extant Turing-Machine on the Internet, there are, mainly, four projects associated with one such technology, which are associated with the U.M. NFT Collections (Genesis and others to come):

1– R & D of a photonics/laser & Fibre Optics Server/Universal Turing-machine model, either in Special Purpose Computation or, most preferably, in General Purpose Computation. This is the priority R & D project and the core of the patent. Its impact should be directed towards backend and frontend solar energy integration, both on generation (photovoltaics), and lighting (solid state lighting and displays) communications.

2– R & D of a Universal Assembly Programming Language, which comes forward as the Internet´s Network Universal Assembly Language for a Cybernetic New Enlightenment Age: Open-Source (n-D Colour Graphic & n-D Algorithmic) Low Level & Compiler C- Object-Oriented Based (C, C++)Universal U-Mentalism Assembly Language: [Assembly Language + Matlab] +[Firmware/Kernel Unix-based OS with Pluggable Support] + [New TCP-IP Separate(Scientific Societal use) Blockchain & (Civil Personal use) Tor Network] +[Q#, Phyton, Silq]. On the forefront, one such product as a Unix-based OS and Browser are the inextricable correlatives to the design of the U.M. Universal Assembly Programming Language and CA.

3– R & D of the most suitable distributed ledger decentralized blockchain and crypto currency protocol to go along with the previous, so to make the decentralized blockchain the very first data structure of the Internet, and fairly integrated with internetworking Protocols and, beyond, with sound value(philosophical, technological, ethical, economical, etc) in respect to the original PoW foundation for consensus Protocol. PoW is, in this way, strongly strengthened by the exponential increase in computation power of the CA, and for which a future U.M. coin (probably a soft fork from Bitcoin), will emerge as a shield to the value of Bitcoin as the “gold” standard for a sustainable growth in the adoption of distributed ledger decentralized blockchain cryptocurrencies, and against all the different impeding forces to this objective.

4– R & D of the proper integration of the CA and (super)computation model with connectomics and neuroscience by means of substituting the use of DNA barcoding (binary) by (isomorphic) typical digital image RGB colour“frames”/”films”, to this extent allowing a more Turing-complete neuro-mapping model for the brain, but also, in this wise, permitting a more phenomenological, intersubjective, ethical, inasmuch as well-ordered and distributed neuro-mapping of the Internet (Reliability, Compatibility, Fault Tolerance, High Performance, Security, Flow of Data, Scalability & Quality of Service) now in terms of multi-layered artificial neural networks working under machine & deep learning techniques on the Internet, under the new U.M. CA & Universal Assembly Programming Language, most specially on the brink of  analogue (sensing &emitting) computation. Under this potential networking, of oracle perceptive body humans in man-machine interaction, it is also of crucial R & D in a later stage, the proper integration of DNA & Connectomics U.M. RGB Colour code into “frames”/”films” with (public-key) cryptography for the harness and stealth protection of private key(s), both for DNA private key identity and for connectomes private key “the-self”, altogether combined a reversing symmetric deterministic key for each one´s own unique singularity and body-neuron new cybernetic charted politics.

What are the main obstacles and technical deviances to U.M. as a technology?

Clearly, the greatest impediment as of now is the use of light inasmuch as the RGB colour model as (fully optimized) memory in the general-purpose computation model, meaning primary memory, or random-access memory (RAM), to be located on photonic chips physically in proximity to laser light (micro, nano, or even quantum) processors. Nevertheless, there have been quite remarkable advances in terms of optoelectronics memory storage and even in the realm of optical volatile RAMs photonics/laser & fibre optics interconnected information, with very much achievable scaling challenges and foreseeable industry targets, much more so under the 20 years life time span of the submitted utility patent (ending in 2040), even if periodic fees are required to assure the enforceability of the patent itself. In liaison, the inventor is exploring some ideas in connection with the first quoted and priority project mentioned, for which reinforcing submitted patents might ensue.

Why is an U.M. Collection NFT said to be, not only a crowdfunding, but also a rewarding type NFT?

Indeed, if it is clear that the inherent to U.M. R & D ensemble is the backbone reason for the NFT crowdfunding call, without which the leverage for the different appointed R & D projects is impossible, it ought to be clearly explained why are U.M NFTs (Genesis and others to come) also, and much more so, utility type NFTs.  Remembering that the U.M. CA is based on RGB colour model “frames” & ”films” in a cinematic (super)computation model and, in addition to this, that the goal of the CA is to include the distributed technology ledger & decentralized PoW blockchain technology as the first data structure of the Internet, this means that photonic/laser & fibre optics computation will be imagetic & safeguarded on the blockchain altogether, either in “well-ordered recollection” (mainly for inductive floating-point arithmetic power), but also “well-ordered collection” (mainly for deductive pointer algorithmic power), all in all under massive parallel use of “(typical) digital images” on the Internet.

In this wise, each NFT of the U.M. (Genesis and other Collections to come) is marked as a unique and impossible to be replicated cryptographic token (non-fungible token) on the blockchain (IPFS pinned image with CID, i. e., pinned with a self-describing “content-addressed identifier” using cryptographic hashes for multi-formatting content addressing safeguarded into the “InterPlanetary File System”), which assigns its owner with an uniqueness trait as if, by comparison, there would have been the chance of having conjoined the first bits on the Internet in its inception, and a decentralized ledger protocol, the owner, thereupon, possessing an Internet’s virtual non-seigniorage, non-inflationary, fractional value.  What is more, because the PNG format, whose NFTs are to be minted, has a fixed number of pixels, its unique and inalienable bitmap is also automatically addressable as “frame” & “films” for the future implementation of the technology. This implies that the U.M. (Genesis and other Collections to come, including GIFs “films”) will be, by order of launching, randomized bitmaps RGB colour model “frames” & “films” as they are - in the sense of non “well-ordered” -, the first ever in time to be lodged into the blockchain and assigned to the technology, in the form of a virtual universe/metaverse, which constitutes at the same time the Internet itself, that is, no more than computational light colours “frames” & “films” entangled processing & memory.

What should we expect from U.M. NFT Collections (Genesis and others to come)?

In one such manner and according to the previous, it is the goal of U.M. NFT Collection (Genesis and others to come, including GIFs “films”) to perform,likewise, the goal of crowdfunding rewarding NFTs type. It is expected that the Collections to follow will also have generative art based fixed number of pixels (IPFS pinned PNG images each one with a CID) bitmap(RGB isomorphic) correspondent uniqueness, of either number (1000 or 10 000), or even special rarity collections from airdrops. Naturally,these generative-art based NFTs are randomized bitmaps RGB colour model “frames” & “films” – therefore, non “well-ordered”in bitmap (isomorphic correspondence) – for which reason they will have as much rounds as collections of rewarding crowdfunding type. Yet, after generative-art based NFTs, these will be followed by U.M. NFTs collection of “well-ordered”(inductive floating-point arithmetic, as for instance natural counting, the counting of primes, even and odd numbers, even palindromes, etc, equivalent“frames” & “films”), whose value will be much higher and accountable for investment return to the owners. In the future, once the U.M. coin &cryptocurrency will have a stabilized token-economy, with a full crypto carding integrated info system, future NFTs generations will be emission-equivalent decentralized & distributed ledger deflationary “paper note” (typical)digital images in RGB colour code, for which scenario an inasmuch as possible competitive “well-ordered recollection” of prime-numbers NFTs will be mandatory,as well as for their natural interval.

What are the NFT Minting Phases of the NFT U.M. (Genesis) Collection?

The past phases and current phase are:

- From the 20th of February to the 20th of March (Free Mint 50 NFTs, 1 Mint per Wallet)

- From the 20th of March to the 20th of April (300 NFTs, 2 per wallet)

- From the 20th of April to the 20th of August (Remaining Collection)

- From the 23rd of February on (New Price for all of the Remaining Collection)

If U.M. NFTs Collections (Genesis and others to come) have, in a prospective outlook, the goal of helping to support the launch of a coin shielding PoW Bitcoin protocol, will we be seeing U.M. NFTs Collections in Bitcoin?

Yes, that is a very strong possibility, and inevitable at the point of, in the future scenario of a newly created U.M. crypto coin, the latter including the blockchain “well-ordered recollection” and “well-ordered collection” under NFTs typical digital images “frames” & “films”. Yet, considering the current state, always regarding and caring to help first the bitcoin community to stay together, never provoking unnecessary forks in the chain, one such possibility will only be taken into consideration if plentily advantageous for the Bitcoin universe.

Does U.M. stand for principles that are worth being referred to, and of which publicization helps investors to form a more solid trust, support and opinion?

Definitely yes. The current network protocol disguised social contract of the current Internet age is the worst deal (not even a mutual agreement or natural-to-artificial covenant) that any world citizen could be dragged into. Citizen´s true data ownership and integrable privacy which belong to him and no other than himself, are, after being taken away without compensation, unauthorizedly resold to the authentic owners in the form of expensive publicity and services, none of them of his true interest and benefit, instead corrupting liberal democracy mechanisms and forms of representations, namely through massively implemented recommender systems in the form of social media (& press) companies’ baits, therefore eroding the already fragile three forms of power: legislative, executive and judicial.

In parallel, what is worst, hyper-inflationary digital monetary emission policy and standard of the international banking system underpinned on fractional seigniorage reserve sources revenue is an attack to world citizens´ wealth and well-being, by inflation tax on the public and an ever-increasing debt production, equally so on people and countries. In the very same alignment and likewise, a strong opposition should be met against any central blockchain derived form of CBDC´s (Central Bank Digital Currencies) or, what is the same, any form of attack to distributed ledger decentralized blockchain current or optimized protocols, most especially under the RGB colour model, thus modular and extensible, of the herein divulged cinematic (super)computation CA for a new Enlightenment photonics/laser & fibre optics new information age in the blockchain (Web 3.0 and beyond).
