Most physics starts with forces and fields.
Stick Theory starts with… collapse.
It asks: what survives when everything breaks?
And yeah it measures “almost nothing.” Using geometry.
Measuring structure from collapse is Stick Theory’s way of saying; “Hey, that sure does look like a lot of nothing over there… can I measure it?”

Finanzierung eingestellt: Berlin stoppt verkehrsberuhigte Kiezblocks
Poller sollen in Berlin den Verkehr in vielen Stadtvierteln reduzieren. Manche Anwohner sind damit nicht einverstanden. Nun macht der Senat einen Rückzieher bei den autoarmen Quartieren. Die Grünen sprechen von Ideologie.DER SPIEGEL
Das Bild zeigt eine schwarze Katze, die sich auf einem orangefarbenen, weichen Untergrund, möglicherweise einem Sofa oder einem Kissen, ausruht. Die Katze liegt auf dem Rücken, mit dem Kopf auf der Seite, und scheint tief zu schlafen. Ihre Augen sind geschlossen, und sie wirkt entspannt. Neben der Katze ist ein Teil eines Menschen zu sehen, der eine gestrickte, weiße Jacke trägt und einen Arm um die Katze gelegt hat. Auf dem Arm des Menschen befindet sich ein Schmuckstück aus dunkelroten Perlen. Im Hintergrund sind einige unscharfe Gegenstände zu erkennen, die möglicherweise Kleidung oder andere persönliche Gegenstände sind. Die Beleuchtung im Raum ist gedämpft, was eine ruhige und gemütliche Atmosphäre schafft.

The image depicts a graphical representation of a video timeline with a focus on targeted advertising. The timeline is divided into two main sections: "Targeted Moment" and "Ad Window." The "Targeted Moment" section is highlighted with a blue wave line, indicating a specific point in the video where an ad is intended to be inserted. The "Ad Window" section is marked with a star icon, suggesting the ad's placement within the video.
Below the timeline, there are four thumbnail images representing different scenes from the video. From left to right, the scenes include a person walking on a snowy mountain, two individuals in winter clothing interacting, a couple embracing, and a person near a body of water with a location marker. The timeline is color-coded with a red bar indicating the targeted moment, a yellow bar for the ad window, and a white bar for the rest of the video. The overall design suggests a user interface for video editing or advertising, emphasizing the integration of ads within specific moments of a video.

Achter Marleen zien we stock beelden van AI waarbij er een mechanische hand van boven te zien is en een menselijk reikende hand van onderen. Of beelden van een glanzende witte robot. Tegenover de imperfecte mens, de domme mens, mens met aardse beperkingen.
