Motifs[edit]
- Water passes out of a sieve; a sieve is a boat -> really interesting logical fallacy. at first I thought the text was simply saying the boat was full of holes but the water ran away from it just because it did. then I thought it was saying that usually water ran away from the boat but also some things could simply pass through it so the physics of the boat were simply contradictory. only on my third pass over this thing did I finally see that it is a very precise logical fallacy that works exactly a certain way but not other ways.
- summoning artifacts out of fictional narratives
- Scientific laws are accidents / Every scientific law is just a spontaneous exception to something else -> this is... actually a really good way to explain science and Materialism. like, one of the most profound sentences I've heard about science in a while, if you really stop and think about it. there is no particular reason for any scientific law, at least not one that can be assumed ahead of time without more testing. every pattern in biology or chemistry emerges in the material world as an exception to previous patterns. this is really accurate, actually. I swear Jarry described science better than Sabine Hossenfelder.
- 'pataphysics symbolically attributes the properties of objects, described by their virtuality, to their lineaments
- universal ascent is universal assent / Is the vacuum ascending away from the earth and moon or the earth and moon falling together? -> fair question to ask, I mean we still don't understand gravity. we have some idea that a clump of quarks will move toward another clump of quarks when they have mass but we don't totally know how that is.
