The End of Quantum Reality is available on DVD, Bluetooth and streaming

As of the 13th of May, Rick Delano's thought-provoking film The End of Quantum Reality is available on DVD, Bluetooth and streaming.

Please see the Philos-Sophia website for further information.

Here are a few tasters from the film:

"Above the entrance to the Platonic Academy at Athens, we are told, was an inscription that read: No one ignorant of geometry should enter here.  The plane of this ancient geometry was conceived of as a void, as something which had the potential to receive existence only by the act of generation.  It begins then with a single point.  Only two instruments exist for the constructions of Euclidean geometry: the first is the straight edge which allows the line to come into existence.  The second is the compass which brings the circle into existence by the act of rotation and joins the source to the perimeter.  We will refer to the simple construction as the cosmic icon.  This icon represents the cosmos as proceeding from God, as the source and centre of creation, spanning across an intermediary domain into the corporeal world in which we live our lives.  Beyond that lies the chaos of outer darkness.  Where then do the particles and fields of physics enter the picture?  Where do these entities fit into the cosmic icon?  And how then in the end to we get from these particles and fields to the world in which we live and move and have our being?"

"We are approaching a very singular moment in history that doesn't happen often."

"What then is the quantum enigma?  It resides in the fact that there are no physical particles in the quantum world.  That actual particles come into existence abruptly, in the act of observation or measurement.  So what is there before measurement?  Not a thing." 

"It thus became apparent that the act of observation or measurement has a profound and unpredictable impact upon the physical system itself, an undeniable fact which physicists could not explain."

"It is time to take stock of what has befallen us, time to break the spell."

Smith's analysis is stunning, administering a triple coup de grace to Cartesian bifurcationism, Darwinism and Einsteinian relativism. His proposed resolution of the quantum enigma is breathtakingly simple and daringly traditional. The film may serve as a fitting introduction to his written œuvre we have covered earlier on this blog.
