Sir Isaac Newton, Sabotaged - For Paul Ewing
Shot inside the great inner courtyard of The National Gallery of Canada, in Ottawa, June of 2015. With apologies to Architect, Moshe Safdie. The complex structure of beams, panels and panes with the indeterminate geometries of the sky behind them was a perfect setup for a good "tumbling".
The "sabotage" of the right angles and strict triangles of Architect Moshe Sadie's giant atrium is meant to convey, by metaphor, the undoing of the 'strictness' of Sir Isaac Newton's "mechanistic, impersonal, purposeless universe", a view that has cut us off from an integrated and participatory relationship with existence.
Quantum science is undoing this view as it increasingly discovers and accepts that there seems to be a grand sense of order and design to the universe, right down to the source of quanta themselves. Indeed, "God does not play dice with the universe". The more the Quantum paradigm becomes understood and the more that understanding infuses out into everyday culture the closer we get to leaving a heartless, mindless, machinelike universe behind us.
