The Dream
Ever since I saw the fake reverse scramble 100x100x100 video, I was consumed with an unquenchable desire to actually create a method which satisfies the "fantasy" of solving the nxnxn Rubik's cube in such a manner. A method where there are no sub-steps, a method which is independent of commutators, a method in which allows a human to twist an nxnxn Rubik's cube in such a fashion as to first form pseudo blocks and then join those pseudo blocks into a solved cube. A method which actually requires pencil and paper, math, logic, planning, etc. A real abstract direct solving method.
Ever since the cube was created, no such method has been publicized, at least, and I suspect it probably is one of the biggest cubing fantasies of all time.
Realizing of that Dream
I am posting here to announce that I have succeeded in creating such a method last year: after nearly 6 years of on and off thought. More importantly, I'm asking for advice on what to do with this method (see the end of this post).
That is, I claim that I can solve any nxnxn Rubik's cube (and thus any size minx) similar to that 100x100x100 solve (except that my solutions are actually solutions, not reverse scrambles). The title of this thread includes "pseudo" because the solutions one finds with this method are not move optimal, but are probably closer to being move optimal as the cube size gets large.
My Goal
My goal is to partner with some educational organization to somehow release this method to the world in a way which I just cannot do by publishing it online.
I just am clueless as to what educational organization has the time to collaborate with me to make a real Rubik's cube course. Perhaps I might also try to later incorporate parity algorithm theory (never before seen content, explanations, etc.).
What Should I do?
My question is can anyone give me ideas on what step to take next (besides just posting it on the web)? Who should I try to contact?
