Special Relativity in Virtual Reality
The appearance of fast moving objects can be calculated according to the Theory of Special Relativity. In addition to the Lorentz contraction the e ects of nite light speed and aberration play an important role. These phenomena were rst discovered and described correctly in 1959 by Penrose and Terrel. Concerning the visualization of the phenomena there already exist systems with relativistic ra...
متن کاملRelativity Theory: what is Reality?∗
In classical Newtonian physics there was a clear understanding of ’what reality is’. Indeed in this classical view, reality at a certain time is the collection of all what is actual at this time, and this is contained in ’the present’. Often it is stated that three dimensional space and one dimensional time have been substituted by four dimensional space-time in relativity theory, and as a cons...
متن کاملCultural Relativity of Moral Precepts
The foundation of most intellectual discourse is Western-centric to the exclusion of other views. This includes ideal patterns of social interaction, preference for aesthetic, accepted norms and values, and the concepts of dignity, respectability, morality and ethics. Such a position is culturally myopic. Western cultural influence colors all of them including moral precepts. The assumption is ...
متن کاملexploring “relativity”
art critique, the analysis of artworks in formal procedure, is the path which connects the public to the art productions; and although its main aim is to judge the piece, right or wrong, delightful or ugly, the main benefit of this effort is to make the subject comprehensible. to achieve this goal, the art critic should interpret the subject thoroughly, relying on the art production as the main...
متن کاملStrong-coupled Relativity without Relativity
GR can be interpreted as a theory of evolving 3-geometries. A recent such formulation, the 3-space approach of Barbour, Foster and Ó Murchadha, also permits the construction of a limited number of other theories of evolving 3-geometries, including conformal gravity and strong gravity. In this paper, we use the 3-space approach to construct a 1-parameter family of theories which generalize stron...
