The nature of the world and social norms

It's really good, as far as I understand the part. The shots are punchy, with good use of black and white overexposure and contrast. You can feel it when you're crazy. Math is beautiful. Those who pursue the truth/world law are either hard-thinking or almost insane, social fears are unbearable and meaningless, or they devote themselves to the material world of money represented by stocks. After all, they have to provide the best research tools, or To succumb to religion requires comfort and understanding after all. Even the computer fell into an infinite loop when it analyzed the laws of the world, and realized the nature and limitations of its own silicon base, much like a human being in the process of scientific development to find that he is just a monkey, or a bunch of walking atoms. , and the so-called emotional thinking is nothing but a series of chemical reactions. Some people fail - after all, understanding the essential laws of the world is far from being handled by one or two people or disciplines at this stage - or they can't stand the truth, and after a few collapses, they fall back and use their intelligence for the infinite game - Go, The collection of human emotions pays attention to oneself - books, appreciates the beauty and creatures of nature - raising fish... Or, like the protagonist, he is too smart and persistent to think about it, so he simply drills his brain, returns his talent to the sky, and becomes a gentleman People who look up only to see leaves and sunlight instead of a whole bunch of formulas are just people who are not so much ahead of their time adapting to the living environment and transforming it for a higher existence. There have been three times his mother's admonition to him and the change in his essential world view. Listen to people's advice to eat enough, and follow the norms of human society with peace of mind. After all, how many ordinary people, geniuses and idiots summed up and accumulated together, and is currently the most suitable for survival. and experience of mutation reproduction.

The film is awesome, with great audiovisual language, deep metaphors, universal themes, and strong values.

    The craziest thing about Pythagoreans is that they use mathematics as the only tool to philosophize to explain the world. Mathematics doesn't believe in chance, but the world is accidental.

    The debut work is so shocking! The rough black and white images show the phantom thinking inside the brain, which stimulates the nerves and is difficult for ordinary directors to learn. Fascinating and painful. It's kinda disgusting...

Pi quotes

  • Maximillian Cohen: My new hypothesis: If we're built from Spirals while living in a giant Spiral, then is it possible that everything we put our hands to is infused with the Spiral?

  • Sol Robeson: The Ancient Japanese considered the Go board to be a microcosm of the universe. Although when it is empty it appears to be simple and ordered, in fact, the possibilities of gameplay are endless. They say that no two Go games have ever been alike. Just like snowflakes. So, the Go board actually represents an extremely complex and chaotic universe. And that's the truth of our world, Max. It can't be easily summed up with math. There's no simple pattern.

    Maximillian Cohen: But as the game progresses, the possibilities become smaller and smaller. The board does take on order, soon the moves are predictable.

    Sol Robeson: So? So?

    Maximillian Cohen: it, there is a pattern, an order underlying every Go game. Maybe that patter is like the pattern in the stock market, the Torah, this 216 number...

    Sol Robeson: This is insanity, Max!

    Maximillian Cohen: Maybe it's genius! I have to get that number!

    Sol Robeson: Hold on! Slow down! You're losing it! You have to take a breathe. Listen to yourself. You're connecting a computer bug with one you might've had and some religious hogwash. If you want the number 216 in the world, you will be able to find it everywhere. 216 steps from your street corner to your front door, 216 seconds you spend riding on the elevator. When your mind becomes obsessed with anything you filter everything else out and find that thing everywhere. 320, 450, 22, whatever. You've chosen 216 and you'll find it everywhere in nature. But, Max, as soon as you discard scientific rigour, you are no longer a mathematician, you're a numerologist.
