1 + 1 = 3?

The Double-slit experiment.
An interference pattern where none should be.
How can the photon interact with itself?

What are the implications with relation to the mind?
Do the two hemispheres interfere to form the interference pattern known as mind?
Does the availability of a second perspective multiply infinitely the number of possible interactions? Over time, of course.

That is also memory dependent. With no awareness of a previous situation, the situation one is currently faced with seems infinite. What you do, you've always done, and always will. But with an awareness of fluctuation, one can compare the memories of different states to there current state to see if another, more desirable state is available.

However, the existence of a more desirable state, does not denote necessarily the availability of a more desirable state. If other entities are believed to exist, then it would stand to reason that they too would seek a more desirable state for themselves. If multiple occupancies are allowed, then the state itself becomes different, a shared experience instead of a private one.

One is one, but two plus time equals infinity. Or two over time. One plus one is four. One, the other, none and both. But is neither really a possibility? Is both? Or is zero a semantic construct?

The double-slit experiment is like staring at the sun, or a crack in reality. You see it, have an understanding of what is happening, but there is something missing. Some information crucial to understanding what you are seeing that is hidden from you. And the more you look, the more troubled you are. Curiosity has killed many-a-cat.
