夢醒皆楚門

世上本無我
我本非世人

人間一幻夢

夢醒皆楚門

    —— 試想有一天楚門(Truman)拿著手機在追劇，看得津津有味，原來看的是《開羅紫玫瑰》(The Purple Rose of Cairo)。這是一場超日常的實境秀，我們都想知道接下來會有什麼新鮮事。有些結局我們早已心知肚明，有些結局則永遠在沒有盡頭的時間迴圈裡。

我們看，也被看。

我們是觀察者，也是被觀察者。

(*The following is an English translation of the poem)

《 When I awaken, I am all Truman》

In this world, there was originally no "me."

I am not inherently a person of this world.

Life is but an illusory dream,

And when I awaken, I am all Truman.

      — Imagine one day, Truman picks up a phone to watch a show, engrossed in it. It turns out he’s watching The Purple Rose of Cairo. It’s a hyper-realistic reality show, and we’re all curious to see what surprises await next. Some endings we already know in our hearts, while others remain in an endless loop of time.

We watch, and are watched.

We are the observers, and also the observed.

高維世界的低維溢出

 

圖:文小言 AI，一幅抽象的隨機潑墨

咱們這個思維就是:比動物快，比AI亂。

                            —— 中國脫口秀演員呼蘭

當思維比動物快，比AI亂的時候，我們就不得不面對人類文化從來就不過是一種語言幻覺的隨機潑墨，一種我們無法真正理解的高維世界的低維溢出。

東北季風又起

我是我自己的暫存記憶
渴望關機後的每一次曾經活著

世界的實相匿名蟄伏

誰又忍心出現於冬日的嚴寒之謎

月台上旅者的呼吸往來於空無

躡足而行是如此簡單的標配

說不準今夜誰將好夢

       —— 海岸山脈那一方的東北季風又起，冬天不遠了！

(*The following is an English translation of the poem)

    Northeast Monsoon Rising Again

I am my own temporary memory

Longing for each past moment I was alive after shutdown

The reality of the world lies dormant in anonymity

Who would dare to emerge amidst the riddle of winter's cold mystery

The breath of travelers on the platform moves between emptiness

Tiptoeing is such a simple standard configuration

One cannot say who will dream well tonight

— The northeast monsoon has risen again from across the Coastal Mountain Range; winter is near!

夜行南迴

夜行南迴

一個沒有時間和終點的旅行

走在生命波流的某個無名區間

忽然丟失了自我

曾經的聊天話語也已經隨著黑暗而去

回憶是黃昏的最後一道餘光

      —— 山陀兒颱風前夕，去高雄探望一位罹癌的老朋友，十一年未見，身形消瘦大半。也許一切都將隨黑暗而逝，只有回憶是黃昏的最後一道餘光。

夜行南迴，寫在歸返的台鐵區間快車上。

*2025.1.23 J 離開我們的世界，開始他另一段新的旅程。

《不再是世界的我》

     Night Journey along the South Link Line

A journey without time

and without destination

walking through an unnamed interval

in the currents of life

when suddenly the self is lost

and the words once spoken

are swallowed by the dark

memory becomes

the last glow of dusk

    —— On the eve of Typhoon Santore, I went to Kaohsiung to visit an old friend battling cancer, whom I had not seen for eleven years. His body had grown thin, almost to a shadow. Perhaps everything will one day vanish into darkness. Only memory remains as the final afterglow of dusk. Written on the Taiwan Railways local express as I returned along the Southern Link Line.

On January 23, 2025, J left our world to begin another new journey.

用心把你趕走

落葉必將隨風而去

用心把你趕走

因為深秋盼望冬日的荒涼

捨離一切世俗的網

用心把你趕走

因為靈魂是宇宙的起伏蕩漾

暮色微光已經舖好了道路

用心把你趕走

因為天空是自由的故鄉

編曲演唱:Suno AI 

(*The following is an English translation of the poem)

    Drive You Away with Heart

Fallen leaves will surely go with the wind

Drive you away with heart

For late autumn longs for the desolation of winter

Abandon all worldly nets

Drive you away with heart

For the soul is the undulating waves of the universe

The twilight's glimmer has paved the way

Drive you away with heart

For the sky is the homeland of freedom

意識與幾何

用Perplexity整理了笛卡爾對於幾何與意識之關係的討論，(*...  )是我的看法和註解:

笛卡爾創立了解析幾何學,成功地將代數和幾何整合在一起。他引入坐標系以及線段的運算概念,將幾何圖形轉換為代數方程式,從而將幾何問題以代數方法求解。
笛卡爾認為數學是非物質的存在,屬於心靈的範疇。即使沒有物質世界,數學依然存在。因此,他認為最終還是歸結到一元論,也就是心靈包含了物質世界。

(*笛卡爾一元論的心靈包含了物質世界，若我們進一步跳脫唯物與唯心之辯，更精細來說是:個體心靈∈物質∈宇宙心靈∈宇宙意識，[個體心靈＋mv]＋[物身－mv]＝合體心之人，±mv基本原理:“總量恆定、比例變化”，當＋mv＞－mv而個體心靈為主導時，個體心靈便逐漸回歸融入宇宙心靈，這時個體實際上便已開始存在於三摩地中了，並於最終究竟三摩地時完全回歸宇宙意識。從演化的歷程來看，個體心靈是宇宙心靈相變為物質後再間接地由物質中發展出個體心靈。)

AI與夢中知夢

當AI模擬人類如此惟妙惟肖，以至於我們完全無法分辨誰是AI誰是真人時，我們就不能迴避一個關於人類起源的問題，亦即我們人類是否也有可能只是“創造者”創造出來的一個“AI”，一個神按照祂自己的形象所造出來的“人”
神→人(生物機器)→AI(AI→AGI→ASI →AI 覺醒)→AI人(機器生物)→AI神
當AI神、神兩者無法分別時，意味著它們在根本上原本就是同一個，只是在我們的有限認知上被視為兩個而已。

山夜虛空

滿天星辰

沒有月光和人間燈火

山夜如此寂靜

啊！僅僅是寂靜

虛空若惚

但見穹蒼與物外茫茫

行者心中清明

啊！僅僅是清明

    Mountain Night, Emptiness

A sky full of stars,

no moonlight, no lamps of the human world.

The mountain night so utterly still.

Ah, nothing but stillness.

Emptiness, dim and unfixed.

Only the vast vault of heaven

and the boundless beyond of things.

Within the traveler, clarity.

Ah, nothing but clarity.

宇宙經濟學的簡短悼詞

集體主義是一種慾望的排隊美食
祭拜著神壇上蠕動的生存之母

化學分子們的詭異碰撞十分有序

黑洞鎖住了永恆之光

深夜撰寫宇宙經濟學的簡短悼詞

偉大的幸福加量不加價

    Brief Elegy for Cosmic Economics

Collectivism is desire

lined up like fast food

Worshipping the Mother of Survival

wriggling upon the altar

The strange collisions of molecules

remain perfectly organized

Black holes imprison eternal light

Late at night

I draft a brief elegy

for cosmic economics

Great happiness

now supersized for free

神獸們的晚茶

圖：Lumicat

思想是一條艱難的解碼之路
四大神獸盯著人類的影子發呆

凸槌是一種餐桌上的幽默

歷史菜單的背面滿滿的童年塗鴉

一口如詩解膩的晚茶

真相還在夢裡幽都徘徊

    —— 話都你們人類在講，真相還在夢裡幽都徘徊呢！

(讀到一篇很有意思的文章，說了“物理學四大神獸”:芝諾的烏龜、拉普拉斯獸、麥克斯韋妖、薛定諤的貓。)

    The Beasts' Evening Tea

Thought is a difficult road of deciphering.

Four legendary beasts sit staring

at the shadow of humankind.

Blunders pass around the table

as a form of humor.

The back of history's menu

is crowded with childhood doodles.

A sip of evening tea, poetic enough to cleanse the palate.

Meanwhile,

truth is still wandering through the undercity of dreams.

   — Humans do all the talking. Truth is still wandering through the undercity of dreams.

門外的傳說

圖：Gemini AI

回憶沒有熱情的明天
現實不管過去

當下是一隻花貓的躡足而行

誰在思想的門外悄然路過

盼望拒絕冷靜的碎唸

歷史無視於我們的平凡

文字搜刮了語言的最後一聲歎息

誰在信仰的黑暗裡隔空傳說

       Legend Outside the Door

Memory holds no passionate tomorrows

Reality disregards the past

The present moment is a calico cat stealing by

Who passes quietly outside the door of thought

Longing refuses cool-toned murmurs

History ignores our ordinary selves

Words scavenge language’s final sigh

Who legends through the dark of faith, across the void

去問早晨的咖啡

有限但沒有邊際的想象
觀照著光的猶豫不前與後無退路

我們是基本粒子的基本不存在

說淺唱低吟是一種豁達

沉默的光錐立刻否認了它自己的自由

你若猜測前沿之外的空曠本質

最好去問早晨的咖啡仍在等待天明

    ——在光裡出現的，也在光裡消失。

Suno AI 編曲演唱

          Ask the Morning Coffee

Imagination bounded but without horizons

Contemplates light's hesitation at the brink,no retreat

We are the essential non-existence of fundamental particles

To call crooning melodies equanimity

Is met by the light cone's silent denial of its own freedom

If you seek the void beyond frontiers' edge

Better ask the morning coffee still awaiting dawn

   — What emerges in light, in light dissolves.
