Quantum mind

In high school I was in a class where we did a lesson on philosophy. My teacher ignited a spark in our minds by explaining to us a short story about what we perceive to be factual. The story she explained was about two different people seeing a ball. The ball was orange on one half and green on the other half, so if you asked one guy, he would say the ball was orange and the other guy would say the ball was green, and they would argue with each other because they both thought they were telling…

What Bernard Roth is trying to get across to the audience is, to open up their mind in a way that makes them happier. Not to necessarily observe everything they see, but to analyze themselves and indicated actions. For example, “People are always changing and evolving for both good and bad, and we are all capable of reinvention” (Roth…

I don’t have a preference or agree with either idea of existentialism or Absurdum more because I think they are both equally necessary to live a happy life that you want to live. I appreciate the idea of existentialism because if I am existentialist I would think that I could do what I want in my life. Then I can determine what I am going to do next I can change my future. I am the one making my own happiness, I can be as happy as I want to be by doing what I want when ever I want to. But I…

Unlike other sports you can literally not be good at wrestling if you are not mentally tough. Now what do I mean by the term mentally tough? Mentally tough means you are able to push past what your mind may be telling you or what your body feels like and is telling you. That even when you have 30 yards left to sprint and your brain and body say you can no longer go you push through and keep going. You rise early to go workout instead of staying in…

When I initially think about art as entertainment, I don’t imagine art in a gallery but rather music or television shows. Though I was recently exposed to a different form of art as entertainment, that being the work of Carsten Holler. Holler’s work brought a new meaning to the phrase “art as entertainment” for me with pieces such as Test Site and Amusement Park, both of which are interactive installations visitors can both view and experience if they so choose. For this reason, “the work must…

According to Freud’s “Mourning and Melancholia” the path of both mourning and melancholia has a similar starting point. With the same influence of the loss of a loved one or a something representing a loved one that would replace the loss, the similarity ends and the differences begins. Most importantly, the ending of both mourning and melancholia does come to a full cycle (at lease in all cases of mourning and in most cases for melancholia) by rejoining the community. When analyzing the mental…

live like a bunch of monkeys. I believe in creating sports out there with the resources we have to keep us exercising and healthy and not only that but to keep our minds busy. Another point I want to set out there is who knows how long we are going to be out there and another way to take care of ourselves is by keeping a peaceful mind. Our people might…

I listen to my mind and senses. I am aware of all bodies in the room, but do not focus on them unless needed to. I am careful with what I share to the world as it is not my world, but our world. I emphasize keeping to myself to an unnecessary extent because my existence…

pretty extreme, right? Maybe it’s the fact that I have always felt alone and yearned for a sense of belonging, which either was harmful or non-existent, that my heart and mind finds Romanticism to be the most relatable ideology. Perhaps if I grew up in a different situation I might be more aligned with other ideologies, truly a human mind is shaped by their experiences. Even further down the road, I might find myself switching back and forth between different perspectives, but I find that for…

Electrodes and Their Effect on Brain Function In the article, “Jumper Cables for The Mind”, Dan Hurley describes his experience with tDCS (transcranial direct-current stimulation) and if its process changes brain activity to cause quick reaction time, better memory, improved mental health, and even the ability to solve equations. This stimulation process involves the attachment of wires, (similar to what is used in an EEG), to the head on certain areas for specific targets of the brain. It is a…
