Mikkelsen admits he may not be prepared for the hype that comes with being in the “Star Wars” universe. For example, he has no idea Lucasfilm issued a promo poster featuring his character.

“My own? Like I’m on it?” he asks. When told he’s the only person on that poster, he laughs. “I love it. I don’t have it yet, but you can bet your sweet ass it will be in my room very soon. That’s fantastic.”

“If there is energy within the substance it can only come from without. This truth was so manifest to me that I expressed it in the following axiom: ‘There is no energy in matter except that absorbed from the medium…’ If all energy is supplied to matter from without then this all important function must be performed by the medium.”

“When radio-active rays were discovered their investigators believed them to be due to liberation of atomic energy in the form of waves. This being impossible in the light of the preceding I concluded that they were produced by some external disturbance and composed of electrified particles. My theory was not seriously taken although it appeared simple and plausible. Suppose that bullets are fired against a wall. Where a missile strikes the material is crushed and spatters in all directions radial from the place of impact. In this example it is perfectly clear that the energy of the flying pieces can only be derived from that of the bullets. But in manifestation of radio-activity no such proof could be advanced and it was, therefore, of the first importance to demonstrate experimentally the existence of this miraculous disturbance in the medium. I was rewarded in these efforts with quick success largely because of the efficient method I adopted which consisted in deriving from a great mass of air, ionized by the disturbance, a current, storing its energy in a condenser and discharging the same through an indicating device. This plan did away with the limitations and incertitude of the electroscope first employed and was described by me in articles and patents from 1900 to 1905. It was logical to expect, judging from the behavior of known radiations, that the chief source of the new rays would be the sun, but this supposition was contradicted by observations and theoretical considerations which disclosed some surprising facts in this connection.

“Light and heat rays are absorbed in their passage through a medium in a certain proportion to its density. The ether, although the most tenuous of all substances, is no exception to this rule.  Its density has been first estimated by Lord Kelvin and conformably to his finding a column of one square centimeter cross section and of a length such that light, traveling at a rate of three hundred thousands kilometers per second, would require one year to traverse it, should weigh 4.8 grams. This is just about the weight of a prism of ordinary glass of the same cross section and two centimeters length which, therefore, may be assumed as the equivalent of the ether column in absorption. A column of the ether one thousand times longer would thus absorb as much light as twenty meters of glass.  However, there are suns at distances of many thousands of light years and it is evident that virtually no light from them can reach the earth. But if these suns emit rays immensely more penetrative than those of light they will be slightly dimmed and so the aggregate amount of radiations pouring upon the earth from all sides will be overwhelmingly greater than that supplied to it by our luminary. If light and heat rays would be as penetrative as the cosmic, so fierce would be the perpetual glare and so scorching the heat that life on this and other planets could not exist.

“Rays in every respect similar to the cosmic are produced by my vacuum tubes when operated at pressures of ten millions of volts or more, but even if it were not confirmed by experiment, the theory I advanced in 1897 would afford the simplest and most probable explanation of the phenomena. Is not the universe with its infinite and impenetrable boundary a perfect vacuum tube of dimensions and power inconceivable? Are not its fiery suns electrodes at temperatures far beyond any we can apply in the puny and crude contrivances of our making? Is it not a fact that the suns and stars are under immense electrical pressures transcending any that man can ever produce and is this not equally true of the vacuum in celestial space? Finally, can there be any doubt that cosmic dust and meteoric matter present an infinitude of targets acting as reflectors and transformers of energy? If under ideal working conditions, and with apparatus on a scale beyond the grasp of the human mind, rays of surpassing intensity and penetrative power would not be generated, then, indeed, nature has made an unique exception to its laws.

"It has been suggested that the cosmic rays are electrons or that they are the result of creation of new matter in the interstellar deserts. These views are too fantastic to be even for a moment seriously considered. They are natural outcroppings of this age of deep but unrational thinking, of impossible theories, the latest of which might, perhaps, deal with the curvature of time. What this world of ours would be if time were curved…“

The colors of belief

Twenty-one years before a young (semi) Einstein revolutionized our theories of space and time, a clergyman and Shakespeare scholar by the name of Edwin A. Abbott wrote a tale called "Flatland" of a two-dimensional being who discovered the existance of three-dimensional space and yearned to live in it, while to escape his own.

Van Gogh similarly yearned to escape the limitations of his own set reality, that of color. A neglected genius whom said to have sold only one painting in his life (further research proves not the case, but close to it), he still realized the epithet of not just his skill, but of his perception, by his own words "I know for certain that I have a feeling for color, and shall aquire more and more."

In doing so Van Gogh redefined common perception of what color is and what could be, freeing from the "tyranny" of color, that has served as a foundation for our colors in our common-day aesthetics.

I quote this as a reminder to those who define themselves through Tumblr and social media, through academics and trade. As quickly as we may lay claim to established ideologies, it seams at the same, we are willing to accuse others of egoism and myopic onanism, simply for having a different perspective and form of honesty.

We should stop regurgitating things we hear from the communities we contruct to shelter ourselves in order to wear as badges for our character: whether claiming to be an artist, traveler, or amateur scientist, and actually go do something completly different from what you are comfortable with.

Yes, this is calling you out.
