New to fluxnexus.com but I am working on a book of verse that I think
address many of the 12 core fluxus ideals.
"Theory of Reality" (part 1)
All this talk of physics and quantum
makes me wonder on and on, hmmm!
How does Einstein and his theory
help us see our place more clearly
>From Learys views on an altered state
to the mind of Buddha we can meditate
and each day we ponder some new question
that leads us to find another connection
our course is not determined by fate
as we live in the world that we create
But all the things that you and I can see
that we call (in a sense) our reality
are really just our separate perceptions
subject to all our object interpretations
But what of the principles of cosmic unity
that can be applied to all with equanimity
and whose key the meaning of life unlocks
or can explain to us some life paradox
like why all the evil and why all the sin
(in a world like this how can we win)
The ancients tried to solve this puzzle
but without a science it was all metaphysical
and with classical concepts like yin and yang
of the cycles of nature they thought and sang
Every up needs a down and every this needs a that
for without the opposites the world would be flat
no winter, no summer, so nothing could grow
with no dark, there's no light, so the cosmos can't flow
Then the Zen masters came and said "be it"
for the art of perfection can be just to sit
and let the unconscious mind find the groove
where subject and object together will move
For quite some time things were thought of the same
until guys like Newton made science the game
and described the forces of mass and gravity
then we found new elements with radio activity
and with laws of physics and mechanics quantum
men leaped from the earth and cracked the atom
Then concepts from the greatest and the smallest thing
needed some unifying theory they called string
that tried to connect the galactic space
to the subatomic particles that race
in orbits determined by the forces of matter
that can even change time like former and latter
but in the final analysis each atomic (or cosmic) event
proved the sage teachings that it's all interdependent
and the whole can be broken down to its pieces
but the bits only exist in the context of our species
as we the observers see the objects more clearly
in the web of knowledge we call Quantum Theory.
