Science is Flipping

Observing

And projecting

Are not two..

Emptiness appears

As projecting

As observing...

(Science is "flipping!" ). 



'Participant' is the incontrovertible new concept given by quantum mechanics. It strikes down the 'observer' of classical theory, the man who stands safely behind the thick glass wall and watches what goes on without taking part. It can't be done, quantum mechanics says it...May the universe in some sense be 'brought into being' by the participation of those who participate?
