Damn some good shit...
Read Steven Hawking's new shit -- it's like a picture book -- he explains time-space and all that shit with diagrams... I just started reading it in the bookstore but really fascinating how time is relative to the viewer...
The most fascinating example at the beginning of the book is this... They place two clocks in two airplanes -- sent them off on flights -- one to the east one to the west -- the two planes upon return from around the world no longer have the same time -- less or more time passed...
So each of us has our own time in our own space... ??????????
Also think about LSD -- I've never tried it but supposedly it allows you to experience all of time as a "now" -- I'm reading Philip Dick's biographical (famous SF author that is responsible for the stories behind the movies Blade Runner, Total Recall, Minority Report) -- he talks of experiencing eternities of time for example while under the influence of drugs... during a planned suicide in "A Scanner Darkly" -- that's the basis of these "precogs" in Minority Report (remember in the movie the precogs are like drug experiments gone amuck... here's a quote from Dick LOL he was into quantum physics and "synchroncity" and shit,
"Do we collectively dwell in a kind of laser hologram, real creatures in a manufactured quasi-world, a stage set within whose artifacts and creatures a mind moves that is determined to remain unknown?"
Has anyone read "The Holographic Universe" by Michael Talbot? Hmm I seem to hear certain interesting people talking about this book so I should probably look into it hehe...
