the bit about quantum entanglement is misleading due to the graphics, but the conclusion is the spot on. i have absolutely nothing to back it up, but i believe that the manifestation of physical reality is something like this thought experiment. imagine a massless particle. that means it is wholly unconstrained by the usual rules of motion. imagine that this particle could therefor travel infinitely fast; so fast that it can "be" in two places at the same time. . . so fast that, given a field the size of the universe in which to move, it can position itself like every particle in the universe moment to moment. that one particle represents all matter and every phenomenon matter can produce! some illusion huh?

thanks for sharing this, i loved the conclusion
