Inspiration - Hit and Run?

Writing is an interesting exercise in visualisation of thought- quite literally. But being beset by an abstraction of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, this will at best be an approximation of thought, my thought.

Now, to lower those raised eyebrows and temporarily stall the clucking tongues, let me go on to elaborate my bold allusion to the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. To add credibility and a professional sheen to my post, I cite his principle here:

The more precisely the position is determined, the less precisely the momentum
is known in this instant, and vice versa.

While the qualities and parameters under consideration differ, what binds my analogy to this is that the studying of the nature of process interferes with the process itself and vice versa, making it impossible to achieve both simultaneously.

To transpose this into the present context, it would seem impossible to study one's thought ( and render it in any form - visual or oral) and continue to think the very thoughts being studied, simultaneously.

Well, many of you would rightly point out that this has nothing to do with Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, only the patent limitations of human cognition. As implied, I completely agree. So why go through the trouble of citing his r and deriving perhaps specious connotations to my own personal observation? To illuminate a kind of irony (which I'm sure I haven't achieved as yet).

The conception of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle as of several others that inadvertently to human cognition, is a cognitive activity. The human mind accedes its limitation to cognise its own working, while all the while cognizing its working in a certain sense.

Well, if I haven't lost you already, I'll leave you to mull over this observation by J.M Coetzee.
" Why is it that the intellectual apparatus that has evolved for human beings seems to be incapable of comprehending in any degree of detail its own complexity? ....I cannot see what evolutionary advantage this combination gives us- the combination of insufficiency of intellectual grasp together with consciousness that the grasp is insufficient."

This is my parting gift for today. Use your time wisely while in your maze, reflect But don't try to find your way, because you never will.

Bon Voyage!
