Stephen Hawking has left Earth!
Well fuck! Truly the greatest mind of our time has left the earth. Others will say Stephen Hawking has died at the age of 76. And that is fine. They can say that. They have been saying it like that for years now. But I will say it again, A real hero to the world has now left it.
A pal of mine who lives in London is studying to get a phd in The Big Bang. My pal is also a filmmaker and was lucky enough to work on 2 documentaries with Mr. Hawking. I have been going to London almost every year for the past 10 years, and every time I would meet with my pal, the first thing out of my mouth would be "so, what has Stephan said lately?", and my pal would spill whatever Hawking info he had with me.
The last time I was in London and met my pal, the night before, I had read an article that said a group of scientist have proven that their is life after death, 100%.
So instead of asking my pal, the normal "what has Stephen say" I asked him about this "life after death" article, and my pal replayed with, "Stephen has come up with a formula that basically proves we live in a 2 dimensional universe."
We talked this over, and this was a couple years ago now, so I do not know, where the judgement of his formula stands now, but what I believe i learned on that day was this. If the universe is 2 dimensional, then we are living in a hologram.
If that is true, I think it is rad. And I am happy to be apart of it.
Stephen Hawking is one of my favorite humans I ever got to read, watch, talk about. He made me think and think. He is one of the best and I will miss him in this hologram!
