RE: Quantum Contemplation: The Particle-Wave Phenomenon Exemplified...
You know what dude, even with 6 years experience studying quantum mechanics and quantum field theory it's still a crazy thing.
This will trip you out a bit though:
In QM when we talk about measurements of energy for example, we assign a probability that the particle has a certain energy, actually its the probability that the particle has a certain wave form that give it the energy.
Everything is PROBABILITY.
We must make an Observation to make the measurement, its that observation that collapses the wave into a particle state.
Everything is made of particles/waves, and mother nature likes to conserve energy she's stingy, the particles favour to be in waveform that particles it "saves energy" as such.
We are observers, and we are only sure that "I" exist and nobody else you can be sure about. So this Universe could be your personal Universe. So it's possible that everything behind you that you can't see is in waveform untill you turn around and look.
I love this topic so much. I hope i burnt your brain a bit :D
The universe is an epic troll, seriously. We don't live in the universe. We are the universe. So it's the universe itself that is doing the observing. WTF is going on man, please help me from losing my mind :p
Is there even anything behind my back when I'm not looking?
😂 That is gold.
Might be time for some psychedelic therapy... all these perplexing puzzles seem to make a lot more sense in those states... :-)
I have always only found answers regarding myself and my immediate environment. Psychs have left me with more questions than answers about the nature of reality. It did help me to accept that which I don't understand.
I agree that things make sense during the journey itself, but reintegration of abstractions is difficult as hell
Bring out the DMT :D
I am fortunate enough to have access, but the stuff does a very convincing impression of meeting gods and spirits. For the week after a trip I spend the bulk of my energy to not start collecting crystals, treating my chronic illness with homeopathy and Reiki and growing dreadlocks.
Hahaha. Well the universe does fit the conditions for being a black hole and black holes apparently contain all "information" on the event horizon like a hologram :p
There is a quantum soup behind you're back, and i heard it tates quite good hahah :D
That is very interesting, the black hole idea. Must go read up on this and layman's thermodynamics...
