... if you wonder where I started to doodle the drawing of schröinger's cat in the klein bottle...

... It was on that non-linear regression visualization.

Just as I indulged in thinking about what this non-linear regression thing might depict in real life (hint: some non-linear causality stuff... so to speak.. errr... primarily conservation of momentum... ) I started to randomly draw a möbius strip.

And then I somewhat imagined a cat in that möbius strip and drew that cat body above the part of the möbius strip. (That's one of the pragmatic reasons why the cat is very dark there. The other reason is for pure aesthetical aspects... )

And then I had a cat floating in a möbius strip.

This led me to adding a klein bottle around the cat-möbius strip bundle.

This is literally recursive mindfucks...

The way this drawing of Schrödingers cat in a klein bottle emerged (process of creating it) is more art than the actual resulting artwork/drawing (the created/creation)

----- --- -- - -

This train of thought partially reminds me of the aphorism:

'The whole is more than the sum of its parts, as it contains both the parts as well as the interaction patterns between the parts.'

Lateral thinking is closely related to creativity. But whereas creativity is too often only the description of a result, lateral thinking is the description of a process. One can only admire a result but one can learn to use a process. Lateral thinking is as definite a way of using the mind as logical thinking — but a very different way.

The Only Connect final for 2024

In the blue corner, the Thrifters, three charity-shop fans.

In the red corner, the Also Rans, three Mastermind finalists seeking redemption a little later.

Both teams were tremendous. But which will win this nip-and-tuck match? And what is the appeal of Only Connect, a show with many viewers and next-to-no prize?

Thinking as a Skill: "Yes, and..."

The investigations I have undertaken into 1980s British comedy that led me to the subject of my previous post have taken an intriguing turn into the study of the essence of comedy itself. What is it, exactly, that makes something funny? Furthermore, how is it that some people are better than others at the skill of constructing humor, especially in the moment?

Lateral Thinking Exercise

A body is discovered in a housewares store. It is a naked man. It appears he broke in during the night, but there are no signs of bodily harm.

“He may have lived to tell the tale had he chosen a different store,” Haledjian said.

How did the man die? Answer is in comments.

The Thought Police is approaching.

by Dr.Harald Wiesendanger– Klartext What the mainstream media is hiding In the fight against alleged “false information” and “hate speech,” global censorship of the Internet is getting closer and closer: what we are allowed to say, read, and share on social media will be subject to comprehensive control in the future.

i have such a love for characters who descend into madness or villainy out of deep, deep empathy. characters who fundamentally cannot cope with the cruel realities they find themselves in and blow up about it in spectacular fashion. fallen angel type characters with tears of outrage in their eyes. characters who break before they bend, and break so badly they splatter blood all over their noble ideals. every variation on it gets me so good

#getou suguru #kaneki ken #abyss twin #i know there are others who im not thinking of rn #feel free to reblog with more examples #aphelion.txt #tropes #WAIT I REMEMBERED MORE #jaina proudmoore #dimitri alexandre blaiddyd #phosphophyllite #i just spent like half an hour trying to find this on tv tropes but it must be. Too specific of a thing i have in mind bc #I just kept finding similar and related but too broad categories #despair event horizon. fallen hero. well intentioned extremist. etc etc etc #like specifically i'm talking about when the character's EMPATHY is the CRUX of the problem. sosooo crunchyjuicytasty #edit:#also just know that i am reading every tag on this post #and enthusiastically scribbling down the names i dont recognizr #so i can check out their series later #edit 2 wow this post blew up 🫡 godspeed fellow villain likers #the amount of people tagging this as 'me lmao' is concerning to me #wwx #how did i fucking forget this was also yllz era wwx

genuinely it will never stop baffling me how people will wear twilight shirts and talk about team Edward vs team Jacob and then the same people will be like "I'm not basing my personality off of a piece of media (harry potter) made by a transphobe 😌" like good that's great! so you can excuse racism but you draw the line at transphobia? good to know

#remember when twilight came out and there were news articles about the quileute tribe and also if you read the books with your eyes #you know that theyre extremely like INSANELY racist #i remember reading them at age 10 and thinking 'wow this author hates women and native americans'#and i was right bc later i found out shes mormon 😐#begging you all to take racism and especially pretty extreme racism against natives seriously lmfao
