An image one could call pedestrian might still convey significance profound. For instance, water dripping in a pan demonstrates fluid motion, waves of sound, time’s passage marked with every passing plink, properties of aqueous suspension, how ratios of geometries link, capillary action, surface tension, volume’s effects upon viscosity, prismatic colors, current convections, refraction and trans-luminosity, […]
Read more "Mindlessly Commonplace"While not all strictly science related, here are some more internet tracks: First from Lit.org, my first online nom de keyboard, POETEYE http://www.lit.org/profile.php?username=Poeteye While I have drifted from this site recently, I am proud of my association with Lit.org. I’ve have met an amazing array of poets here, some I will remember forever. The […]
Read more "Missing Links"NEUROLOGICALLY NORMAL Swimming in separate body oceans a variety of evolutions take place. In the dark, with secret motions, the neurons bunch in weird convolutions. Held gently afloat in nutrient brine, their dendrites mysteriously enlaced, they interact in ways hard to define, within the skulls in which they are encased. So they don’t become depressed […]
Read more "Neurologically Normal"If we could travel back in time from here to see past selves and give our sage advice, most likely we’d meet disbelief and fear in such attempts to make decisions twice. But if our past selves listened to us now, the paradox created might destroy the us who tried to change things anyhow and […]
Read more "Future Perfect"“I do not see how a man can work on the frontiers of physics and write poetry at the same time. They are in opposition.”
– Paul Dirac to Robert Oppenheimer
“You forgot that science has evolved from poetry, and failed to see that a change of times might beneficently reunite the two as friends, at a higher level and to mutual advantage.”
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Poeteye here. I thought I might share some background by way of these internet footprints. Feel free to check back here from time to time as I will be adding to this e-cv (electronic curriculum vitae) as I relocate past credits and publications. There’s enough here to get started, though: romance http://californiapoets.net/poems_previously_published/love_poems classical http://classicalpoets.org/poetry-by-james-ph-kotsybar […]
Read more "A Little Linkage"FINE-TUNED FOR LIFE Ours is the perfect universe, it seems, for forming atoms that will let suns burn. Anthropically, there are few other schemes to give such a magnificent return. The arbitrary masses we’ve discerned for subatomic particles create a balance of the forces, we have learned, whereby life is allowed to generate. Change any […]
Read more "Fine-Tuned For Life"UNIQUE PARAMETERS There is only one answer to creation. Though we don’t nearly understand it yet, there’s but one elegant variation emerging from initial values set that even allows molecules to be, much less achieve complexity of life, or suns to burn their planets distantly with not too much but with the needed strife. […]
Read more "Unique Parameters"SUITED TO THE EQUATION The Universe reflects itself in universal parity — the ultimate kaleidoscope… symmetric similarity. Matter mirrors antimatter, so why shouldn’t every part on down to sub-atomic scale have an echoing counterpart? This premise fuels the current hope, that this elegance will be found. Reality should follow suit from mathematics that […]
Read more "Suited To The Equation"BUBBLE UNIVERSES Our universe may be embedded in a bulk containing other bubble realms, while we are just a hologram within. The implication is what overwhelms. Though this explains why gravity’s perverse, our cosmos, then, is not the whole shebang. Are we part of a frothy multi-verse where one’s black hole is another’s Big […]
