Shoes Wrinkle Creases

Ha pasado more than half a century since George Gamow, one of the pioneers and founders of big-bang model, raised along with Ralph Alpher and Robert Herman the idea of \u200b\u200bnucleosynthesis in the context of this model, postulating the formation of light elements during very early universe. Gamow also gave name to the original substance of which should have been made the universe at the moment of creation. Called "Ylem" a term from medieval English, used to describe matter, which came into English from the Greek word υλη (hyle, wood). To celebrate this joint work, Gamow put a label with the name of Ylem his bottle of liquor ...


The fact is that the Greek origin of the term dates back to hyle Ylem happened also to denote the area, and such origin has survived the term hylozoism. It is a philosophy, a conception of matter and considers the nature that is endowed with life. English wikipedia article explains the concept quite well: Hylozoism . At least in its more immediate this is a difficult position to maintain today, but not without beauty.

I've always thought that physics and science in general, must be felt and not just meant to be understood. Very lightly is the I tried something with the latest entries. Reflection on physical concepts is also a poetic play, science is the end of the metaphor of reality, and these are linked to feelings and sensations. Could you talk more about this than I have had occupied my mind a long time. But the best thing I think is encouraging to find your own way to the cosmos - "a personal voyage" in the words of Carl Sagan. And the best way that I have thought it with pictures and quotes. It's funny that a way to compute numbers mentally is linking with feelings and images. Is the method used by Daniel Tammet (one of the few people with syndrome wise - English "Savant" - able to explain how to calculate), I mentioned in an interview that the number eleven is nice. I think it is just a manifestation of something greater, a poetic and spiritual connection with reality.

But hylozoism is another thing, of course. And I would like to know if the hydrogen atom is nice or not. I'm pretty sure it must be simple and friendly, able to make good friends, something which has been good to structures as complex as us.
