Sir Isaac Newton famously complained about "action at a distance." How was it possible, he wrote, that gravity, or attraction, operated between objects without physical contact? Well, jump to the twenty-first century, and we have a lot more to say about that. Readers will enjoy a brilliant, outrageous, playful exploration of quantum physics in everyday life, from a secret interplay of TV plots with us, in electricity, to other speculations, founded in the author's decades of initiations as well as being an original thinker and a scholar.
An unusual feature of the illustrations in AN UNDERGROUND PRINCIPIA is a technique called "computer-PK," or mind through matter in the creation of printouts that refocus the text on-screen in the printing so that nothing happens twice. As in Einstein's "Credo," the author exemplifies: "The most beautiful and deepest experience [one] can have is the sense of the mysterious."
"In SPACE ENCOUNTERS II: AN UNDERGROUND PRINCIPIA, Margaret Ann Harrell leaps beyond existentialism, beyond cellular molecular electric, beyond epistemology, beyond phenomenology, beyond quantum physics, beyond first second and third person narrative, beyond fourth person singular, beyond tragedy, beyond comedy, beyond all genres, beyond space and time, beyond yin and yang, beyond dualism in all its manufactured forms, beyond encyclopedic knowledge, beyond gravity, beyond electromagnetics, beyond nondualism, beyond death, beyond 3-D, beyond sound and light to where there is no distance to where there are no gaps to where the ever changing creative imagination is the host of all and everything. SPACE ENCOUNTERS II, AN UNDERGROUND PRINCIPIA is a masterpiece, a miracle.
"From start to finish beginning to end I was blown away by the brilliance the radiance the outrageousness the playfulness the hilarity the footnotes the simultaneous multiple conversations all of it!
"It's talking my language, and it's a language that's never been spoken! Ha! And Aha!"-Ron Whitehead, U.S. National Lifetime Beat Poet Laureate
"Margaret Harrell has the most open-ended and far-reaching mind of anyone I know."-Rhea A. White, Director, the Exceptional Human Experience Network
