Tarot, Possible Futures and Stoicism. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sometimes I feel a little like Pannychis XI, the wonderfully exasperated old Pythia in Friedrich Dürrenmatt’s Der Tod der Pythia (The Death of the Pythia). Pannychis is old, tired, and, above all, thoroughly fed up with the endless procession of Greeks arriving at Delphi with the same questions. What will happen to me? Will I be rich? Will I find love? Will my enemy perish? Will my son become king? Will my future be happy? The machinery of prophecy has become an exhausting bureaucracy. The Pythi
The Strange Distance of Seeing: How Looking Changes What We See (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is a peculiar idea running through both physics and the philosophy of perception: observation is never quite as innocent as it seems. In quantum physics, this appears in what is commonly called the observer effect, or, more precisely, measurement back-action.

Read excerpt

You are immediately transported into another dimension, another world, whose rhythm is made by storytelling, visually represented… I love theatre. I collaborated in the creation of several visionary shows. I love it, from either side of the curtains. Theatre is deeply fascinating, and it is a very deep form of magic. It has immense power. Shows were banned for their messages, considered “too dangerous”. Revolutionary ideas star
The Alchemy of Permutation: Tarot, Atoms, Consciousness. Part II (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As we see in the previous part of this article, when we started to ponder the psychological fascination of repetition with variation, our minds seem to have a particular attraction to things that return but do not return exactly as before. The pleasure derives neither simply from repetition nor from novelty. It exists somewhere between the two: recognition followed by difference, familiarity interrupted by surprise. A pattern appears, and then it changes. We become alert. We start looking for re
