I propose a new mathematical form for the quantum theory of gravity coupled to matter. The motivation is from the connection between CSW TQFT and the Ashtekar variables. I also connect the algebraic structure of TQFT with some thoughts about the interpretation of quantum mechanics in a general relativistic setting.
