The Little Man in the Tower







                  Yet what about the status of the images that we call "the real world"?
               Might these, too, be similar to holograms that deceive us with their technical
               quality?

                  In order to find the answer to these questions, first and foremost we need
               to reconsider what we know about "sight" and the visual process in general.






                  There is No Light Outside


                  In the light of the latest findings, scientists have arrived at a most
               interesting conclusion: In fact, our world is pitch black. Light is now known
               to be an entirely subjective concept; in other words, it is simply a perception
               formed in people's brains. In fact, there is no light in the outside world.
               Neither lamps, nor car headlights, nor even the Sun, which we regard as our
               greatest and most powerful source of light, emit any light at all.

                  All that the Sun and other "sources of light" do is emit photons, different
               kinds of electromagnetic particles of various wavelengths. These particles
               spread throughout the universe in the manner that their structures allow.
               Some of these reach our Earth, where again they produce the kinds of effects
               determined by their structures; and which change, depending on the
               particle’s volume, weight, speed and frequency.

                  For instance, many radioactive particles enter our bodies and pass
               through them. These can be stopped only by lead shields. Some of these
               particles are so heavy and energy-charged that usually they shatter any
               molecule they may encounter and continue on their way, with little
               deviation. This phenomenon underlies the way in which radiation gives rise
               to cancer. X-ray machines make use of X-rays—a weaker form of
