Abstract
Reality exists necessarily. Because it is neither derivative nor dependent, it exists without and in spite of the existence of prescient beings. Prescient beings can only try to predict it based upon discreet observations. Observations map slices of reality in models meant to predict outcomes. The predictions are discontinuous and fleeting. Reality tends to mock humankind’s attempts to explain it. Theories that model an analogue flow of reality come closer to truth. Models are usually digitally based but what they model attempts to simulate the movement and dynamism that reality contains. Reality flows smoothly through eons of time and is a recurring story of birth, death and rebirth, as the singularities of black holes and the Big Bang in their duality might represent. Prescient beings are carried along with that reality while the sub-atomic and the huge know one another in a reality we still can’t model.
