David de Hilster is a leader, author, and theoretician in the dissident science space. His favorite subjects are physics, cosmology, philosophy, and mathematics. It all started with David meeting physicist Dr. Ricardo Carezani in 1992. Thirty years later, David has become one of the foremost experts on physics outside of mainstream science.
Dr. Ricardo Carezani
In the early 1990s, a chance encounter with a man in Long Beach where David had his art studio and his wife’s clothes designing business, lead to David meeting Dr. Ricardo Carezani, a PHD in physics who showed Einstein wrong back in the 1940s.

Soon after, David found himself reading through a stack of papers from Ricardo and eventually taking his work to TRW Space Park where David worked in the Artificial Intelligence group. He wrote the president of the company saying that he has in his possession an experiment that could potentially win a Nobel Prize. Three weeks later, David received a letter from one of the physicists stating that he could not find a flaw in Dr. Carezani’s paper showing fatal flaws in Einstein’s special relativity. With Dr. Carezani landing in the hospital with severe heart problems, David began earnestly typing all of Carney’s papers into digital documents to be published on the internet, something fairly new in the early 1990s. The result is this final website: https://autodynamics.org.
NPA
After digitizing Carezani’s work, David began to seek out other “dissidents” and came across the Natural Philosophy Alliance on the early internet. He submitted a number of papers from Dr. Carezani at their 1996 conference in Flagstaff Arizona. It was during that conference that he started getting interested in dissident physics and cosmology.

Einstein Wrong
David only attended the one NPA conference in 1996 but closely followed the group for a number of years. In the early 2000s, David was encouraged to make a documentary film about the group which he called Einstein Wrong by a colleague at an online gaming company David worked at the time. David put together a package to solicit funds from dissident scientists and got enough money for the equipment to start filming. The filming started in 2005 when he took his mother to the conference to film and talk with scientists.
In 2006, Dr. Carezani pulled out of the film David asked his dad to help out with Carezani’s graviton detecting experiment. In 2007, Robert de Hilster reported on the experiment in his first time presenting at the NPA. Little did David know that that would lead himself and his father on an historic journey of their own. David continued to attend NPA conferences, eventually becoming an officer of the group.

CNPS
After the debut of the film Einstein Wrong, the NPA was in turmoil with David and colleague Greg Volk being removed from the directorate which David was a part which led to David, Greg and 95% of the NPA organization to start a new organization named after the founder of the NPA: Dr. John Chappell. David ended up being voted the president of the Chappell Natural Philosophy Society which he is still the president today.
David organized the first CNPS conference in 2015 in their hometown of Boca Raton Florida at Florida Atlantic University. David then went on to organize CNPS conferences in Maryland, at the in Vancouver Canada, the University of Washington in Seatle, and the University of Connecticut where the majority of the NPA conferences were originally held.

Dissident Science
In July of 2017, David began his Dissident Science YouTube Channel and from 2017 until 2021, he made over 300 videos. His channel has garnered over 5000 subscribers but David stopped due to the amount of time it was taking to produce his videos. He broadcasted live for the last couple of years, but did not put much time into the endeavor.
The Particle Model
2015 was a big turning point in David’s dissident science career. In 2015, David’s father was presenting a talk on gravity to David, his wife Patricia, and one of David’s friends, Robert Berger. and at the end talked about a model for light he had created just a month earlier in May.
What Robert unknowingly solves is what is known as the “wave/particle” duality of light – the fact that light sometimes acts like a way, and other times like a particle.
Below is an animation of the model for light that David’s dad had created.
Within three months after that, David had added two other particle motions along with a known motion for gravity and the father-son team published their first book together: Principia Mathematica 2. It was based on they called the “particle model” for the universe.

In 2022 on a trip back from Atlanta, David, talking with his father realized that what they discovered was not the particle model for the universe, but what David would call “The Four Universal Motions in Physics”. It is David and his father’s contention that everything in the universe can be described with these four motions.
Current Work
They are working on a website for the four motions which is still incomplete: https://fourmotions.org. His father and he are planning to rebrand the Four Universal Motions into “Reverse Engineering the Universe”.
David also plans to go much bigger with his Dissident Science YouTube channel teaming up with friend and thought leader Matthew Stroul.
