Quantum Universality

[wolven7]

Tool - [Stinkfist]--- A Universe unobserved is not, in fact, a universe.

It can't be. Observation and classification, in the very essence of the act, determines a thing as "a universe." Trees in forests, etc, are not trees without someone to name them trees. (Tool - [Eulogy]). They are whatever they are, but "tree" is, at base, an arbitrary designation.

Observation determines form and function, classification then standardises designation. That thing, and all things like it, are, generally, "Trees." When we impose that form, we dictate universal meaning.

Tool - [H.]--- Naming and identity. No matter how you deal with this, if there is a "beginning" then it must be of the observer observing itself.

Tool - [Useful Idiot]--- I'm going home.

Talk amongst yourselves.

That's the least of the songs on that album, in my opinion, awesome though it is. Great word play, in that song.

John has a sticker on his car that simply says, "Learn to Swim".

priceless.

Ænima is generally my favourite, but 10,000 Days has really grown on me, quite a lot. You can tell that Maynard put a lot of Work into Lateralus, with the Fibonacci sequence in the chorus, and the Alchemical colours.

I guess they all serve different functions, for me. Hm.
