"Staring at (Schrodinger's) Cat Staring at Cat Staring"

"Staring at cat staring at cat staring" by Steve Bishop

A clay sculpture that plays with deep ideas with great naturality: sort of an infinite loop flowing, like a mirror against a mirror with the river ebbing and flowing through the circuitry of the eyes laser star war light (perhaps the eternal golden braid between Bach, Escher and Godel). And last but not least, playing with the quantum (cat) paradox proposed by Edwin Schrodinger as an image of the undecidable principle in reality, the o,1 nature: cat dead or alive, being both at the same time and only one of the before when perception ("the ray of an other eye") endows it with its function-collapsing reality, an extension of the wave-particle duality. This time the uncertainty (the catch) being which cat will explode first.

The Large Hadron Collider ignites its search for divinity in physics

The world´s most powerful machine is ready to probe into microinfinity in search for the basic constituents of matter and space. The Large Hadron Collider will start its metaengines in less than 12 hours from, now at CERN (European Center for Nuclear Research) in the French-Swiss border, September 10 at 730 GMT.


And contrary to popular fears (even a lawsuit was reared) the LHC will not trigger a world-destroying black hole or a strange sci-fi vortex that will devour the world. It is a fat chance, physics all over the world are confident it will not release a deathray.


But much more, physicists are excited the experiment will yield vital gogoplex´s of data that will help understand the basic fabric of our world, and possibly even find the Higgs boson, dubbed the "God particle", for its ghost-like qualities and its keystone position in the latticework of modern physics. The Higgs boson is the only unobserved elementary particle and could confirm the predictions and missing links in the Standard Model of physics and could explain how other elementary particles acquire properties such as mass. Additionally it is expected that the LHC might shed some light and help solve the inconsistencies between relativity theory and quantum mechanics and probe into the present mysteries of physics wich include dark matter, supersymmery and the existence of parallel universes folded in 10 dimensional space.


The Large Hadron Collider took 14 years to build with a cost more than 8 billion dollars. It is 27 kilometes long, built in a circular tunnel between 50 and 120 meters deep in the Swiss-French border.

More than 8 thousand scientists of 80 different countries are working on the project, which is being tagged as the culmen of scientific experimentation.
