FQXi Essay: Constants of Nature, Dynamics of Time by Michael A. Sherbon
fqxi.org
An archetypal model for the constants of nature is found from the ancient geometry of the the Cosmological Circle and is related to Plato's cosmology, with its dynamics and harmonics of time cycles. The inverse fine-structure constant and the proton-electron mass ratio are calculated, connecting fundamental mathematical constants of geometry with the latest theoretical and experimental values of these physical constants. Continuing in the tradition of George Gamow's suggestion, "Since the works of Sir Arthur Eddington, it has become customary to discuss from time to time the numerical relations between various fundamental constants of nature. Although until today such discussions have not led to any practical results - that is, to any valuable road signs toward further development of the theory of the still unclear fundamental facts in physics - it may be of some interest to survey the present status of this 'clairvoyant' branch of science."

Explaining Experience in Nature : Introductory Remarks
senses.info
The present inquiry explores a constructive explanation of consciousness in nature developed from first principles. Our goal is to illustrate how consciousness comes into existence, the role that it plays in nature, and the mechanics of the broad range of behaviors that are its products.
 
The number of dimensional fundamental constants
xxx.arxiv.org
We revisit, qualify, and objectively resolve the seemingly controversial question about what is the number of dimensional fundamental constants in Nature. For this purpose, we only assume that all we can directly measure are space and time intervals, and that this is enough to evaluate any physical observable. We conclude that the number of dimensional fundamental constants is two. We emphasize that this is an objective result rather than a “philosophical opinion”, and we let it clear how it could be refuted in order to prove us wrong. Our conclusion coincides with Veneziano’s string-theoretical one but our arguments are not based on any particular theory. As a result, this implies that one of the three usually considered fundamental constants G, c or h can be eliminated and we show explicitly how this can be accomplished.
