Ok. But do you consider this idea original or unique? And ... so what?

Most readers of William Gibson or Neal Stephenson would probably nod their heads. Gibson and Stephanson themselves would probably be interested in what you are saying.

But as to your statement seeing the future of abstract models of 'reality' ( or some kind of unified field theory ) - perhaps even intellectual fashion t - I'm not sure you are succeeding in make your point - other than that you are experiencing agape in apprehending some of the implications of this. Fortunatley you are young enough that you will get to see a lot of it play out, so may be the satisfaction of finding out you are right.

That is a very good thing, but don't be frustrated if your subjective experience doesn't translate. That's the nature of subjective experience. I brought up the 'psychedelic' experience for a reason - not to say that would be the only way one could think as you are thinking, but the say that the attempt to articulate the ineffable when one has made a leap of understanding can be very frustrating. It is the frustration of feeling misunderstood that can be very alienating.


Charles Hankey

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
