when can 2 things be considered the same? Is everything the
same thing?

gradually mutating symmetry

0 0- -0-- 0---v 0---v- 0---v-- 0---v--- 0---v----

Ok, music is perhaps merely the brain sorting out what is
different and what is the same. taking out all the deeper
cultural+ emotional stuff anyway.

this reminds me of an experiment. here's a little example of
what i mean:

1. you draw a line
2. split it in 3 parts with equal size
3. erase the one in the middle.
go to number 2 and repeat this with every line that's left
over.

what's the result: you finally get an infinite number of
lines with no length. and thats happening within a fixed
size.

that's interesting, it'll eventually turn into a fractal
when you get microscopic enough... right? each little tiny
piece is exactly the same as the entire huge thing. fractals
are crazy, scaling symmetry. what is it, it has such a weird
construction.

Fractals are brilliant.

M mate has a computer that allows you to look at fractals
and dive deeper and deeper into them with a zoom function.

This is one reason why i have not got a lady friend.

yeah that's right ... i love fractals. they are pretty cool.
in the early 90ies i had my computer running for one week to
calculate a fractal. after that the power supply blasted....

even a ladybug and a person are the same thing aren't they?
I wonder how evolution looks with one of those special
cameras that show slow processes in great speed, like the
ones that show sunsets all quick... we're not really
"humans" that's just a convenient term we use to refer to
our CURRENT form as we pass through evolution and can't
percieve how fast it really goes, we were apes, we ARE
apes... we're the same as we were.

you have cool scientific view on such things. i think i
heard that 90% of the genetics of all species is the same.
it descends from very old bacterias.

i like the experiment where by you set up a video camera
that is running and linked to monitor, with the lense of the
camera aimed at the monitor screen...then you light a match
infront of the camera....

our dna make-up is 99.3% identical to that of apes....what
would it be be to say an amoeba??-not much in it, ill bet..

I dont know if things exist or not.

Does each person see everything that other do. When in the
local city centre I see approx 1000 people walking down the
street. Do other people see every other person that I see ?
Or do other people only see 999 people (not the police).
Would it matter if I did not see all 1000 people, this would
only matter if I was to conduct a survey and ask everyone in
the street if the following question:

Of the following which do you prefer:

1. Elks
2. Whelks
3. Spelks

If I was not aksing this question would it really matter how
many people i could see.

Today I realised it is great to be alive, or am I just a set
of numbers.

My hand = 0101110010101001001

A wheelbarrow = 0110101001001

Can everything be explained in zeros and ones. Why can
things not be described in celery and drawing pins.

I can imagine mini pieces of celery and drawing pins being
passed along he wire of my computer informing little pigs
with hats on to walk to other parts of the computer with
instructions inside small carts that are being pulled by the
pigs. Inside the carts exist the A-Team.

we could probably communicate saying
"10100110101001101100101" to eachother real fast but that
would be dumb. Everything is 1's and 0's my guess.

Or we could probably communicate using only:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz... that would be crazy if we
could do that, because there'd be much more possibilities
with more characters. I propose the invention of a new
letter, we already have doubleu, so how about doubleh? We
could make a double of each letter in fact, thereby making
our communication possibilities superior to how they are
now.
