We employ the ergodic theoretic machinery of scenery flows to address classical
geometric measure theoretic problems on Euclidean spaces. Our main results include a sharp
version of the conical density theorem, which we show to be closely linked to rectifiability. Moreover,
we show that the dimension theory of measure-theoretical porosity can be reduced back to its
set-theoretic version, that Hausdorff and packing dimensions yield the same maximal dimension for
porous and even mean porous measures, and that extremal measures exist and can be chosen to
satisfy a generalized notion of self-similarity. These are sharp general formulations of phenomena
that had been earlier found to hold in a number of special cases.
