TOW #6

The TOW I chose to do this week is an article on quantum physics by Arjun Walia. Have you ever heard of the saying "you are a result of your own thoughts"? Maybe you don't believe this but it's a law. This law is called the law of attraction and it all has to do with quantum physics. As you may know, everything in the universe is energy, including us. We are all atoms and if you microscopoly look at yourself, you would see no physical structure. As the article states, "The ratio of the interference pattern’s double-slit spectral power to its single-slit spectral power was predicted to decrease when attention was focused toward the double-slit as compared to away from it." Meaning that the more we focus and stress over something that we want, we are less likely to receive it. Sounds weird right? The explanation behind this is, like I said before, we are all a result of energy and our brain frequencies (our thoughts) are put out in the universe, which is also energy, and you begin to attract exactly what you're thinking. The author, Arjun Walia is a writer, known for his non- fiction articles. The audience of this article is composed for those who are interested in quantum physics so normally those who are in high- school or over since this whole article is based on that concept. The context of this article is quantum physics with some science behind and a law. An important rhetoric device that the author uses in this article to achieve their purpose is logos. The author of this article uses logos by giving the reader knowledge on what the universe is, what atoms are, and how are thoughts contribute in those topics. The authors purpose in writing this text was simply to give the reader a deeper knowledge in the topic of quantum physics. The author did achieve their purpose in writing this text by making the article informative and keeping it interesting.
