Work. It is the great blog-killer.
Sorry for the lack of updates. In lieu of something original and scintillating, I bring you two quotes from Max Born, Nobel Prize-winning atomic physicist:
“There are two objectionable types of believers: those who believe the incredible and those who believe that ‘belief’ must be discarded and replaced by ‘the scientific method’.”
“The belief that there is only one truth and that oneself is in possession of it seems to me the deepest root of all evil that is in the world.”
I’ve spent a lot of time lately reading Introducing Quantum Theory by J.P. McEvoy. I find it fascinating in many ways (least of which being the mathematical formulae). I’m finally beginning to understand not only what “quantum theory” truly refers to, but how it was discovered/unearthed, and how it relates/differs to classical physics.
Art & Science, I’m convinced, are the same – to avoid one is to live a life of wilful ignorance.
