Dominoes all the way down

I think of the universe, the planet(s), our lives, our biology, the nature of things, to be like an extremely complex domino effect. There are tiny domino effects that as a whole create one larger domino that is on its own domino effect level, and so on…Each domino effect representing a single larger domino that is on its own domino effect plane. I think we are but one product of this tree of domino effects, and us, on one level, a single domino, being knocked, and thus knocking another. If the universe is expanding, I imagine this to be the outskirts of the domino effect where the dominoes are raised up like an ocean wave and come crashing down over and over again.

The domino effect is no new idea, as it is parallel to and reflects the well documented chaos theory, butterfly effect, causality, actions and reactions, etc… However, I shall work on an art piece that will provide some visual representation of the domino layering effect. I’ll post it when it is completed.

    Perhaps a fractal in your art ? – life is but a fractal anyway, a self replicating image of itself, ever expanding.

  3. Cindy, thank you.

    Jay, yes, a fractal is a good analogy to what I have described. I like your insight.
