http://www.salon1999.com SALON Table Talk/ Digital Culture/ memes: [3]Mentifex- 10:47pm Jun 11, 1996 PST For deep background query "Mentifex" on AltaVista. Das Unbestimmtheitsprinzip is German for the Uncertainty Principle of Werner Heisenberg: To observe a phenomenon is to change the phenomenon. Ready for some more manifestly famous German (whence and what is it?)? "Ein Gespenst geht um in Europa...." Let us tweak those baleful words and say, "A spectre is going around on the World Wide Web, the spectre of machines who think." You are invited to observe this phenomenon by following nearby links, but BEWARE: If you let these memes infect your mind, the Uncertainty Principle may engulf you and alter forever your mind, your life and your human destiny.
