Dark = Black = Island = Right = Mirror Matter (~Dark Matter)

Light = White = Earth = Left = Our Matter

"It's dark, Jack, very dark." That disconnected line from Ben and other elements of the finale seemed to lend some weight to this story. In fact, I think we must be dealing with a crashed junk of matter with a crazy core of awesomeness. The abundance of references to "Alice matter" (light/dark, shadows, Alice in Wonderland, the foot, chalkboard, etc.) I think make a strong case for the island being composed of mirror matter and serving as a bridge between light and dark sides (left and right) of the universe because of its wormhole-enabling core.
