| 29 | ACTION FROM A DISTANCE" | ||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | There is this thing called "spooky | ||
| 32 | action at a distance." Einstein | ||
| 33 | mentioned it first I believe. It | ||
| 34 | is about how two electrons can act | ||
| 35 | like they are right next to each | ||
| 36 | other although they are very far | ||
| 37 | away (lightyears even). For a long | ||
| 38 | time this puzzled scientists until | ||
| 39 | someone (not Einstein) figured out | ||
| 40 | that maybe the universe is a | ||
| 41 | hologram or projection. So what | ||
| 42 | appears to be very far apart in | ||
| 43 | the hologram might actually be | ||
| 44 | very close in the substrate | ||
| 45 | reality. | ||
| 46 | I want to talk about this | ||
| 47 | effect in literature. In literature | ||
| 48 | the writer writes words on a | ||
| 49 | substrate (paper) and later the | ||
| 50 | reader reads the same words off | ||
| 51 | the substrate. Although the writer | ||
| 52 | and reader might be very far apart | ||
| 53 | from each other in time and space, | ||
| 54 | they experience the same effect | ||
| 55 | from reading the words. Even the | ||
| 56 | writer reading his own words after | ||
| 57 | he has written them becomes a | ||
| 58 | reader and feels who he was at | ||
| 59 | that time, like a ghost. | ||
| 60 | |||
| 61 | PROBLEMS: | ||
| 62 | Maybe the substrate isn't | ||
| 63 | paper it's what the writing is | ||
| 64 | about. Where is the hologram? Are | ||
| 65 | physics and literature comparable? | ||
| 66 | What if the universe isn't a | ||
| 67 | hologram what then?</code></pre> | ||
