The elegant universe
April 20th, 2009I am doing some research for the No Straight Line project and spent this afternoon looking at String theory
String theory is a developing branch of theoretical physics that combines quantum mechanics and general relativity into a quantum theory of gravity. The strings of string theory are one-dimensional oscillating lines, but they are no longer considered fundamental to the theory, which can be formulated in terms of points or surfaces too.
When I happened across this picture
Now I am no expert on String Theory, but I am interested in the idea that the shape of our networked world is different to our linear mass consumer industrialised world.

Hi, You might find some interest in this unique Understanding of both quantum reality and string theory, and Reality altogether

Plus this reference describes the origins and consequences of the power and control seeking perceptual strait-jacket in which we are now all trapped.

A strait-jacket which has inevitably created the situation described in this reference.
