Just rambling but this is kinda how I think of it.

Aether is a perfectly linear wave from the zero points Z axis. It's the invisible energy that connects all matter and manifests matter when it is spun in a vortex creating acceleration without distance.

When this connection is twisted into a harmonious vortex with 2 z axis it creates a vibrational field and causes matter to manifest but when it travels out of the Z axis it is impossible to detect and causes no resistance.

When some of this energy escapes the vortex it turns into light and the shape of the vortex is changed and the matter decays.
