Imagine the world as you picture it, on a screen in front of you, and the world as it is without what you add to the picture, on a screen behind you. When you turn around to face the unadorned world, the extra layers of content your picturing adds form over it in front of you almost immediately. What you're looking for is a perspective from which you can study the difference. That's the observer's perspective.
Because of something in that difference the complexity of our world is exploding. Something changed we haven't noticed yet, causing us to interpret exploding complexity as 'stability'. It's not. At least for those under 30, taking a spin through my neighborhood might let you watch the whole event as it happens, one definitely not to miss!
