Ok. I'm thinking of the ramifications of this paradox. If it has indeed been proven to be 'true' that all quantum constituants must follow the same laws.... perhaps we are not in any position to recognize the true nature of these "laws". Of course though we are aware that our mere obervation of the law itself would effect it.
Imagine if instead of a cat being used in this, if it was "Schrödingers Human-Being". If in some way in the universe that some sort of "split" happens, in which 2 seperate quantum realities are initiated in which A or B happens... the how would that account for the point of view of the person in the box? In other words, waht is the nature of the perspective of the person Inside the box as opposed to a person observing Outside the box?
If indeed the reality is that there are two seperate opposite states occuring at the same time... yet the person inside must only see one.... unless this would mean that 2 people are created.... However that would be beyond the bounds of the perspective of the Inside person.. To them, there is only one reality, which contradicts that there are two realities from Outside of the box. Which is why it's a paradox i guess..
but
Waht would this say about the nature of thought?
Waht is defined as true "observation"? is it hearing? seeing?
It would be the act of Thinking about it. The entire quantum state would have to exist in your mind simultainiously in order for you to truly observe somthing. Through the facilities of your senses are you able to Think about things... or to Observe things. Measurments, experiments, obervation; all of these things further grant us further understanding of things. The more we understand somthing the more we would be effecting it.
The big question then is: How does this "communication" occur?
Could it not be said that everything that we experience is our environment "communicating" with our minds? By knowing somthing and idea is created. An idea must have some actual structure of some sort. Thought itself is the processing of observed information, and as could be said, strictly electro-chemical reactions to environmental stimuli. So to say "communicate" would be misleading in this sense. None the less, withing these electro-chemical reactions that we call thought are also quantum-electrodynamic reactions.
Waht I am rambling about, is that if by controlling our mode of observation of the universe, we could consciously change the universe around us.
Evidence shows that quantum particles can react to one another from seemingly anywhere in the universe. Evidence also shows that the mere observation of somthing can effect the quantum state of the universe. If you put it together you will see that upon observation of somthing, the quantum states of waht is being observed and the observer become entangled, and thus can react to one another. By way of relative perception, we would believe that the door only swings one way, and that the observer only reacts to the observed, however, as all of this evidence shows, the door in fact swings both ways. Wehn you are looking at somthing, hearing somthing, or even thinking of somthing you become inectricably connected to it, no matter wah it is. The atomic structure doesn't matter, the distance doesn't matter, AND perhaps even TIME doesn't matter.
