Good quote:

I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong.

Feynman: I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong.

Human understanding is a minuscule fragment of exponentially elaborating existential experience.

I've recently been pursuing comprehension of this illuminating video on Feynman:

I look forward to looking at Feynman's videos.

I've been reading, In Search of Schrodinger's Cat: Quantum Physics and Reality, by John Gribbon. At the section, The Experiment with Two Holes, the opening sentence reads, "One of the best and best-known teachers of quantum mechanics over the past twenty years has been Richard Feynman..." The book came out in 1984.

I'm looking forward to learning more about the uncertainty principle, et al! Nice to know they can account for it in equations. Very curious, and savoring every word.

:)

As a student at that time, the "Feynman Lectures" were sought after (they were out of print). One of my group had the three volume set, and we consulted it frequently.

Considering Feynman's curiosity over the imbalance between the temporal momentum of matter and that of anti-matter, this comes to mind:


Might remembrance of experience
account for the apparent imbalance
between temporally inducing material momentum
and a reversal of temporal momentum in equivalent anti-matter?

Might time reversal correlate with
attentionally wielded sensation
situationally soliciting recollection
plumbing present remembrance
of lifelong organically evolving experience
fueling cognition, anticipation, expression?


Perhaps emergent experience recollecting remembrance
somehow accounts for an otherwise inexplicable
unidirectional arrow of time.

Important note: This is an AI projection of algorithmically construed Feynman responses to contemporary questions. Quite well done, in my opinion. His voice, manner and content are mostly well done.

This all looks interesting. I'm aware of his lectures, part of which I downloaded, last week.

The poem (?) and everything above I'm interested to understand.

Going to read more about the Cat, now. After finding out about all the particles, I'll need to watch Feynman, soon.
