A Fashion-Science Experiment in Superposition
Before I became a photographer, I was an engineer by profession and was fascinated by superposition states in quantum mechanics. The Ability of a quantum system to be in Multiple States at the same 8me un8l it is measured. Much like waves in classical physics, any two (or more) quantum states can be added together (“superposed”).
But if you look at it -- Collapse, the superposition collapses into a single state as soon as an observer intervenes. In Schrödinger Cat experiment, we can tell alive from dead, but we can’t build an apparatus for which those would be eigen states. The thing we can “measure” is a huge superposition of states that we call “alive” or “dead”.
If particles (models) which are “Past”, “Present” & “Future”, in the quantum realm, the order of 8me is disordered and has a wonderful reaction. Just like the two-slit interference experiment, we are all observers, and after the observation has taken place, the superimposed particles collapse into a definite time state.
What about the results of this Fashion-Science Experiment?
