If we got the bioctonions, quateroctonions and octooctonions into the game, we might account for the other exceptional compact simple Lie groups: $E_6$, $E_7$ and $E_8$. That would be quite magical.Indeed. Michael Rios calls it M Theory computronium. Stringers and loopies don't yet know what M Theory computronium is, because they don't yet appreciate that Spaces and Algebras are made of quantum information. Mathematicians don't yet know what M Theory computronium is, because they don't yet appreciate that Spaces and Algebras are made of quantum information.

Recall that we were talking about the number fields $C$, $H$, $O$ and the bioctonions $C \cdot O$. The last two cases mentioned above are the numbers $H \cdot O$ and $O \cdot O$. The trinity ($C$, $H$, $O$) is like the three dimensions of space, or the three strands of the particle braids. But in M Theory there can also be three time directions. Another trinity. All the octooctonions rolled into knots.
