Watching Rashomon on continuous play. I have watched this a ton of times before but no film embodies 2020 like this one @criterionchannl  https://www.criterionchannel.com/rashomon You could say that Rashomon effect is an equivalent to the uncertainty principle.In The Simpsons episode Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo, Marge comments that Homer liked Rashomon, but Homer replies that he remembers it differently ?In classical mechanics, reality can be apprehended. If we knew the precise state of the universe as represented by the position and speed of every one of its particles, classical mechanics would enable us to calculate all past and future states of the universe.At the atomic and subatomic scales the behavior of a particle at this scale is explained by its wave function, which can only tell us the probability that the particle will be at a specific position at a given time.There is one true story, but it has many facets, seemingly in contradiction, just like in the filmSince reality is unpredictable, there is no one story that can accurately tell us about the present let alone the future but we can theories map out the states, and compute the probabilities of the different states at different points in timeBut the real problem is we think we understand highly complex juxtapositions by introspection alone when it may just be a side effect of Solipsism https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solipsism_syndrome … (Source: https://threader.app/thread/1329324712296529924)
