Thread 40831926

I'm having some late night thoughts, so bear with me. The quantum observer effect shows that observing a particle alters its state, as seen in experiments like the double-slit. Scaled up, some argue consciousness might influence reality itself. Could phenomena like synchronicities, poltergeists, or unexplained events be tied to collective or individual observation? Or is this just misapplied physics, with no real impact beyond the subatomic?

What’s the evidence for or against consciousness shaping reality? Are there personal experiences that align with this idea, and how do you explain them? What would count as proof that observation affects the world beyond particles?

Had an experience that made me believe that consciousness and your perception can change reality.

I don't think ill ever be as confused and dumbfounded ever again
Later searched for similar experiences and found other people having such similar experience and discussion of how your perception can change reality
Spooky stuff

No it means the equipment is interfering with the way the particles move.

voodoo deaths are the evidence for your theory.

I have:

>heard myself on life support because I was in a coma
>heard a random female ask the opening question to a typical paranormal investigation (or you male or female)
>saw myself thrown into a black hole and ripped apart to a billion pieces
>heard alien visitors exclaim that "this place is doomed"
>was asked by other alien visitors to make a wish
>heard the inner monologuing device in my head ask some invisible presence "what", before responding with "its facial hair" (as if responding to this 3rd party after they motioned toward prickliness on my face)
>saw a grey alien waving at me from the inside part of a solar eclipse on a video I was watching as if I was departing

>>40834140
I could go on, but you get the picture. For some reason that I STILL can't surmise... they can only interact with me through OTHER PEOPLE. And that's consistent, that observation.

"Evil is a point of view ... God kills, and so shall we; indiscriminately ... for no creatures under God are as we are, none so like Him as ourselves. God kills indiscriminately and so shall we. For no creatures under God are as we are none so like him as ourselves."

>>40834027
Exactly. This shit is retarded. All physical causal events that actually happen in reality are relational. Are models are abstractions, that individuate out some arbitrary defined bounded system from the continuum of the universe. Which just simply 'is'.

This dumb misinterpretation is so simple when you reduce it using first principles. If you put a detector over one slit it literally changes the wavefronts preventing the waves from interfering with one another. When you have two evenly spaced & sized slits physically they attenuate the passing EM waves. It's because these wavefronts are so close together and relatively identical in nature that their waves would usually interfere with one another. Place an "object" i.e the detector in the path of one slit, the EM waves must physically interact witg the detector which obviously impedes its path of motion & changes the social and temporal geometry of the wavefront. This means no interference with the over slits unaltered wave.

*Spacial not social

This is like the tip of the iceberg when it comes to quantum spirituality my guy.

>>40834197
You’re making the classic mistake of confusing physical obstruction with quantum measurement. This isn’t about “wavefronts” getting “attenuated” like it’s some RF engineering problem.

The reason the interference pattern disappears when a detector is added isn’t because you “blocked the wave.” It’s because the act of measurement entangles the system with the observer, collapsing the wavefunction. That’s not philosophy, that’s core to every tested interpretation of quantum mechanics: Copenhagen, Many-Worlds, Decoherence, take your pick.

It’s not about “EM wave geometry” or “spacetime curvature from objects.” It’s about how information about which-path is accessible. Even if the detector doesn’t physically disturb the photon, the mere availability of which-path information destroys the interference. That’s been demonstrated in quantum eraser experiments again and again.

So no, it’s not “just attenuation.” It’s a fundamental property of quantum systems: once information becomes entangled with the environment, you’ve made a measurement and the superposition dies.

Learn the basics before you try to sound smart.

>>40834255
This is all nonsense. The EM waves must literally interact with the atoms of the detectors surface to be detected. This obviously physically shields and distorts a real wave of energy. QM is abstract mathematics& all the interpretations that add mysticism like many worlds, superpositions, action at a distance. etc. are bullshit.

>>40834027
In the double-slit experiment, particles like electrons exhibit wave-like interference patterns when unobserved, but collapse into particle-like behavior when measured. This occurs even with minimal interference from detection methods, like delayed-choice experiments, where the choice to observe is made after the particle’s path. While equipment can influence outcomes, the effect persists in setups designed to reduce such interference, suggesting observation itself (whether by consciousness or measurement) plays a role. What specific experiments or evidence support the idea that it’s purely equipment interference? Are there cases where the effect occurs without physical interaction from the detector?

>What’s the evidence for or against consciousness shaping reality?
There is nothing to reality *but* consciousness.

Physics only gives the rules of the entropic simulation we experience as mortal life.

>>40834697
if it´s all nonsense why does it make sense if you factor in how your brain works?

I smell glowniggas in this thread.

Funny how you will always come to the light like moths to flames.

glow niggers don't care for our talking points. they only care about us shooting up schools and having opportune scape goats for their pedophile overlords.
