Advancing the unification of probability, curvature, and quantum emergence through Entanglement Compression Theory (ECT).
Committed to open access to knowledge – not centralized ownership.
About the Compression Theory Institute
The Compression Theory Institute (CTI) was founded to advance a unified, testable understanding of the physical universe through the principles of Entanglement Compression Theory (ECT). Our mission is to bring together independent and institutional researchers who share a commitment to rigor, falsifiability, and open scientific inquiry.
CTI operates as an open-access research collective, publishing all foundational work publicly and maintaining a focus on reproducibility and clarity. The institute supports theoretical development, mathematical formalization, and the exploration of measurable predictions that emerge from ECT.
Principle: We are committed to open access to knowledge, not centralized ownership. We publish in open repositories, make derivations transparent and reproducible, and ensure that no single authority decides who may understand the work.
Project Leader
William Andrew Lawrence, independent theorist, writer, and systems thinker with a background in IT and two decades as a systems engineer in the publishing industry, including the Los Angeles Times. He is the originator of Entanglement Compression Theory (ECT), a proposed framework unifying quantum mechanics and gravity through information-based wave dynamics. His work explores emergent structure in physical law, deterministic reinterpretations of quantum behavior, and the role of entanglement as a compression mechanism for observed phenomena. He welcomes collaboration and constructive review from physicists, mathematicians, and researchers working at the intersection of theory and computation.
