In my theory, recursion is the unifying thread that acts on all systems in the universe, from the smallest to the largest.<BR/><BR/>EM waves oscillate to create the illusion of matter. Cells divide over and over to create a human. Systems of galaxies expand and contract. Each state is dependent on the previous one. Each turn transforms both the system and its observer.<BR/><BR/>The first time you lift something, is a completely different experience than when you lift it for the 10,000th time. Besides the transformation of yourself (and likely what you are lifting) ... what is learned from that 10,000th time is completely different. Your mind is stripped of doubt. Your movement is economized. You are free to explore the nuance of the activity.NikEPoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00346216939792464071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795483213843043301.post-2630613614508390682007-09-30T16:19:00.000-07:002007-09-30T16:19:00.000-07:00If you have not seen "What the #$*! Do We (K)now!?...If you have not seen "What the #$*! Do We (K)now!?," do so, post haste. This movie was self-described as "a quantum fable." <BR/><BR/>Regtarding your "novel" analogy: There is a book that I read for the first time when I was 16. And, have read it a total of 13 times. Between the 12th and 13th reading was a 10 gap. When I read this book for the 13th times, every single character has changed. The noble had become insipid. The strong and selfish female protagonist had become a wise and noble heroine. <BR/>How did this happen? What an amazing experience.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795483213843043301.post-9965776693920452302007-09-30T08:36:00.000-07:002007-09-30T08:36:00.000-07:00Oh, finally, an easy question from Nik.E.Poo!Yes, ...Oh, finally, an <I>easy</I> question from Nik.E.Poo!<BR/><BR/>Yes, and Yes. However, separate from the D.U.C. only in the sense that you have the ability to entertain the <I>notion</I> of separation (and I'm quite convinced it's a notion that is essential to making the game more fun -- I also believe that the ability to perceive the notion of separation is tied in, somehow, with the ability to perceive Time as linear).<BR/><BR/>Definitely a "cell" in the body -- or perhaps, to give it the proper scale, a quark in a cell of the body (although I suspect you are closer to being located somewhere in the "apple" cells of the D.U.C.'s eye ;). )<BR/><BR/>These seeming "paradoxes" are what the Big Game is all about.PortlyDykehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08598941981828041835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795483213843043301.post-55089674761009859372007-09-30T00:22:00.000-07:002007-09-30T00:22:00.000-07:00Cheezburger?No coke, pepsi.Quite the brain bender!...Cheezburger?<BR/>No coke, pepsi.<BR/><BR/>Quite the brain bender! Compression of infinite time into infinite dimensions of simultaneity ... engaged in a cosmic game.<BR/><BR/>Ok ... one more question, please ... although I can't promise it'll be the last. But feel free to ignore me ... if I am becoming tiresome.<BR/><BR/>What about the concept of the Al Franken decade? Or more specifically, me. Am I separate from the D.U.C. ... or am I a cell in a feather (likely near the ass)?NikEPoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00346216939792464071noreply@blogger.com
