RE: Steem Basic Income Giveaway (Idle Questions)

haha, I still leave it open to this day most of the time, obviously not when in other peoples houses but at home, my hubby has just got used to it. My number 3. I always wanted to know why time seemed to move faster the older you got, I answered it in my latest post, other random things I often ask is why things are called as such and what would happen if they had called it something different, would our perception of that item be different.

Sort:  

In Physics, there is an interesting problem about the swapping of man-made definitions and whether or not that would create the same or a different universe. CPT and CP invariance (or Lorenz violations). The idea that, if you swapped the charges, space co-ordinates and time direction, then you should get exactly the same physical laws.... or NOT?

Haha, that's pretty awesome. Ny hubby does a alphabet adventures series sometimes that explains the origins of words, whats super interesting is that some initially meant the opposite of what we used them for these days. Language is a complicated thing.

Oh yes, that is part of my particular music specialisation. The idea that words and their meanings have changed over the centuries is the example I give to help people realise that music has done the same. This, the way that music is played by regular, professional (non specialist) orchestras and musicians is very much a modern take on the original. Often with completely different intentions from the original intent!

@bengy I saw two cellos live and they were fantastic, we saw them on you tube once and I was in awe of the awesomeness so as soon as I heard they were coming to Perth I got us tickets. Not sure if that is completely off topic lol but I feel that it may no be lol.

Nice, I've seen a couple of their videos! I think you probably go to listen to more concerts than I do. Funny, as a musician, I just don't have the urge to go and listen... I get antsy and I want to be playing...

@bengy not these days, that was a one-off, we generally go to the theatre or a concert once a year, much less since finding Steemit and now having little man lol.
