The End Of Quantum Reality Trailer

Mathematician/philosopher/physicist extraordinaire Dr. Wolfgang Smith has chosen to emerge now, at the summit of his life’s work, in order to prepare a new generation for what he calls “a singular moment in history.” Dr. Smith will be granting an interview to our production team including Katheryn KTEE Thomas (Director, Producer) and Rick DeLano (Producer, Narrator).

Watch our first trailer for The End of Quantum Reality, a film designed to blow the doors off the so-called “quantum reality problem” and signal the end of a four-hundred-year arc of human history, what René Guénon has called “the reign of quantity.”

"One of the best-kept secrets of science is that physicists have lost their grip on reality"

Is this film available somewhere?

I'm glad you asked.  I just realized this trailer was uploaded a year ago.  This page says it is suppose to be released in the Spring of 2019, but I haven't found it or where to look for it yet.  I'll look some more tomorrow.

I did find this hour and a half long interview with Wolfgang Smith on this page though.  I haven't watched it yet.  Some of the other articles and commentary on this page look interesting too.

I found the book 'Physics and Vertical Causation: The End of Quantum Reality', but I haven't found the movie.

"Wolfgang Smith (born 1930) is a mathematician, physicist, philosopher of science, metaphysician, Roman Catholic and member of the Traditionalist School. He has written extensively in the field of differential geometry, as a critic of scientism and as a proponent of a new interpretation of quantum mechanics that draws heavily from medieval ontology and realism. A documentary film about his life and thought is currently in development.[1]"

I'm listening to the interview above right now.  It is quite interesting so far.

Quite interesting indeed.  Fascinating in fact.

I have a copy of his book The Quantum Enigma, but have never gotten around to reading it. I was interested when I saw this trailer originally last year, but I haven't heard any updates on the project since then.

Has anyone seen it, and was it any good?

I probably won't buy it, but I'm debating whether to rent it or just to save my money. I did enjoy The Principle but I don't have much interest in modern physics, the quantum world, or the philosophy of science. (I once took a philosophy of science course for my major, so I'm vaguely aware of the issues at stake... though most of the physics went right over my head.)

Has anyone seen it, and was it any good?

Yes, I liked it. It's basically Dr. Wolfgang Smith's reversion story.
