Why is there a need for a string theory that tries to unify all physical forces in a single theory? Has the theory of relativity, for example, already been researched and understood so well that one can already try to attempt unifying theories based on it? Regardless of whether our current idea of the origin of our universe or of black holes is correct, one can still accept these vague structures as the best working hypothesis currently available. It is actually obvious that there must be a connection between the Big Bang and black holes – one as the antithesis of the other. The former is light, the latter rather dark – at least from our point of view. Where is the synthesis? In the creation of both, there is talk of an unimaginable amount of energy, which is said to have been concentrated in a very small space, so that the word "singularity" is even used in this context (although one would rather and perhaps should avoid this). So we prefer to jump from the point in time of ...

Our skin becomes, so to speak, the autobody and the car part of our human body. In a computer role-playing game, a character has a life of its own. As players, we influence the decisions of the character and his "life" in the game from the outside and give this character something of our spirit.  These considerations can be applied to our lives. Through physics and mechanics, the brain and the subconscious, a lot seems to be hardwired in us humans and in our world in general. This "l...
