Escape From Noise posted:Getting Weather Report back together to power a cool fusion reactor. Scientist: "The toroidal reactor consists of 42069 speakers playing Birdland, precisely phase triggered so that all the sound waves converge on the suspended plasma at the same moment, compressing it, and causing the atoms to fuse together." Interviewer: "Birdland?" Scientist: "yes, by Weather report. You know, doo doo doot, doo doo doot, BWAAAAH! doo doo doot doot... Best we can tell, the precise timings of those doots and bwahs is critical to keeping the reactor cool." Interviewer: "best you can tell? That doesn't sound very scientific" Scientist: "you've heard of Schrödinger's theory?" Interviewer: "the cat in the box?" Scientist: "precisely. The nature of the cooling effect is unknown to us. It is either cool or not cool. Birdland by Weather Report, for reasons unknown to us, is cool. If we could observe, determine precisely, what made the reactor cool, the quantum wave front collapses and it is no longer cool. The plasma gets too cold and the reaction fails." |
