Water exhibits remarkable structural and dynamic properties, including the 'biological signal' revealed by the investigations of Benveniste and Montagnier and the complex acoustically-induced structures in water revealed by the cymascope. Organised dynamical behaviour is more the province of biology than of physics and will require different tools of investigation than are standard in physics but the little known field of biosemiotics (the application of the sign theory to biology), and Yardley's Circular Theory, may provide such tools and thereby lead to advances in fundamental physics comparable to those associated with the development of the quantum theory.

NB: if your main interest is in ordering mechanisms in nature generally, rather than memory of water specifically, it may be worth skipping to 8:00.

The Moonlight Sonata cymascope video was recorded by Gary Robert Buchanan, and the other cymascope videos by John Stuart Reid. The complete video of Benveniste's lecture at the Cavendish can be viewed at [ Ссылка ].

Note the following 'misspeaks' in the video: (i) it was Benveniste, not Maddox, against whom the activities of the editor of Nature were directed; (ii) in the context of the lecture, it is hydrogen-oxygen bonds that the tetrahedral bond angle applies to, not ones involving carbon.
