spectral materialism
Spectral materialism bridges the gap between monism, holographic theory, and the wider occult. It's a useful framework for thinking about chemical and informational processes.
The spectre of irreproducibility haunts everyone when, countless times and for no apparent reason, the material escapes the operator's control. On the other hand, it is not uncommon for a chemist's skill in his field of expertise to be described using categories that are difficult to define, such as sensitivity and intuition, indicating a mysterious and incommunicable elective affinity between certain human minds and certain inanimate substances.
It is no coincidence that almost every general chemistry course begins by drawing a line between physical transformations, which do not change the molecular nature of a body, and chemical transformations, in which the atomic organization of matter is modified. This distinction, which appears to us to be quite natural and obvious, contains a subtext that is often overlooked: that, somehow, there must be a discontinuity between our understanding of the macroscopic world and the microscopic understanding of the molecular world.
... any system more complex than the hydrogen atom - that is, any molecular system - is an analytically unsolvable problem.
We do not know whether the mind of this contemporary silicon alchemist [referring to an AI designed to solve quantum chemistry problems] harbours the ultimate laws of physics, or whether it is rather inhabited by magical, occult connections.
In order to formulate any theory of chemical bonding, one must necessarily admit that the microscopic world is dominated by a strange statistics [...] and that microscopic matter manifests an inherent discontinuity, expressed in the discrete nature of the molecular excitations and vibrations that constitute the foundation of the chemical event.
Everything chemical is a quantum phenomenon.
... we [...] are spectres, and the blackness that consumes us is a resonance that proceeds inexorably from the very core of the matter from which we are made.
The complimentarity [it's a wave and a particle] postulated by Bohr [...] is an essentially limited instrument which presupposes, in its very operation, the maintenance of a clear distinction between the quantum properties of the particle under study and the classical properties of the measuring apparatus. In other words, [it] does not admit any possibility of authentic conciliation between quantum matter itself and the knowledge of the experimenter.
... quantum mechanics can open the way to a new form of thinking about matter, which we could call spectral materialism, in which indeterminacy leads to the renunciation of traditional atomism, replacing it with a reinterpretation of matter as self-resonance. This vision frees matter from its dependence on the gaze of the experimenter, allowing us to intuit, through the mathematical-gemoetric image of the spectrum, the trans-individual dimension of quantum interaction. The spectrum is not, as correlationist thinking would have it, a deficient form of human knowledge, but emerges as the trace of an unobservable relationship of matter with itself.
