Calvino Chaos and "Golden Age" Syndrome

    The psycho-scientific principle of chaotic thinking and linear thinking is often used to psychologically explain the space time contininuum. The theory states that time is not linear as we percieve it to be (past, then present, then future) but actually simultaneous (all "times" as one), this very much like how the alien race percieved time in Slaghter-House Five. The psychological explanation lies on the basis of chaotic thinking, a kind of rationalism that lies in our subconcious, too complex for our punny concious part, much like Calvino's story telling. If you are asked how a particular diamond was formed you will probably say it was made because of pressure of some minerals over time, this is an example of linear thinking. This opposed to chaotic thinking whitch would answer the diamond question by starting with the big bang, since chaotic thinking will arugue that the diamond was made from those minerals but those minerls where fused because a T-Rex fell on that spot above those minerals, at the same time it would argue about a tree that split a wave of air that caused those minerals to float to the same place, at the same time it woud argue that that tree grew there because a bird pooped the see right at that spot, and so on until it would narrow down to the clash between matter and anti-matter. This as you see is complete chaos and no matter how far we take it we will nevr uncover every path to answer the question. This is very much like Calvino's story telling, it is so overwhelming that we have to settle for one way of interpretation and one order of reading or be doomed in over analysis and a metaliterature overdose. 

   As the cinephile that I consider myself to be, I always make a movie oriented connection to almost everything I read, see, or hear, my previous blog is a proof. The "Golden Age" Syndrome is from the movie Midnight in Paris directed by Woody Allan. This is basically discribed in the museum of the city Fedora whitch bases itself on this theory. However it goes to only such an extent because of our linear way of thinking, if it were chaotic the museam would be filled to infinity with almost exact replicas with microscopical changes. Getting back on track, this syndrome is a specimen that needs chaotic thinking for an explanation. This syndrome continiously percieve the past as better but that is just the linear explanation. Since the space-time continiuum states time is not linear then where would this ideal "golden age" be if theres no past? The answer does not rest on time now, it has shifted to human behavior. Human inconformity is a constant "golden age" syndrome that would be erased and we could see our future so much clearer if we could comprehend chaotic thinking. However that not right because we wouldnt see our future at all because of the space time continiuum that now applies since we now understand chaotic thinking. Whaaaaaaat?
