At the LHC they break down atoms(star stuff) and produce quark/gluon plasma. Are we made of signals propagating across a 4 dimensional carrier?

In the macroscopic world we are made of hydrogen carbon oxygen etc. But in the microscopic world of sub atomic particles,matter and anti-matter can annihilate,producing electro-magnetic radiation.According to big bang theory we only exist because there was an excess of matter over anti-matter.If there had been an equal amount of matter and anti-matter the universe would not exist. So what are we made of,(something that can both exist or not exist)?

Emergence is the way complex systems and patterns arise out of a multiplicity of relatively simple interactions. My vote goes with this idea. I think the wave/particle duality arises because of some undiscovered more fundamental interactions.

In the standard model,there are 4 forces gravity,weak,strong and electromagnetic.An oscillator requires a driving force,but there is no mention of such a force. My question is which force is driving the oscillations of a wave function,is it the weak force.

Sorry I not being clear.I was thinking of Pl^3 as a volume of stuff,unknown stuff. so my Pl^3 volume of unknown stuff travelling at the speed of light = kinetic energy. If my volume of unknown stuff is spinning,and each spin produces h amount of energy. then I can say E=f x h. My question would be is the plank length anything to do with the energy of a photon?

do not know if my understanding is correct?If Pl=plank length. Then pl^3 x c=smallest amount of energy possible?
