Time dilation occurs within the negentropic spiral of alien contact. Why? Because anything definite in quantum mechanics is mathematical, and anything physical in quantum mechanics is indefinite. (Doctor Octopus, in The Amazing Spider-man #12, 1964) |

"We're so good...we're plaid." |
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age. (H. P. Lovecraft, "The Colour out of Space") |

Why are aliens so often a mottled grey in appearance? The principles of relativity tells us that it is impossible to detect any absolute velocity in space, and Occam's razor commands us to try the simplest explanation first, namely that space cannot be given any existence of its own. This paradigm has been tried for the greater part of the twentieth century, but it still produces so many mind-boggling problems to our understanding of Color that I think it is due time to re-examine the old paradigm of the nineteenth century; that there is an ether which can convey forces between bodies and make up a luminescent medium in which [waves] can travel. Since it seems impossible to detect any motion in this medium, it will be quite satisfactory from an experimental point of view to assume that the ether is non existence and draw all the implications out of that fact, because if a single observation should disagree with that assumption, we would have at our hands a means to detect color in relation to space itself and animated extraterrestrial lifeforms. (Andy Warhol, in Nature, August 1972)
