[SPOILER] Click here to see my commentary for this page!
My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est:Lilith’s line “Magic is physics through will.” is the English translation of one of the most famous quotes by Dr. Axel Stoll, an infamous German conspiracy nut. May he rest in peace! His “Best of” at vimeo.com/41741708 and the two sequels are probably the most quotable pieces of German media since Goethe’s Faust. Other highlights include:
- “Medicine is mathematics! Biology is physics!”
- “The human cell nucleus equals pure light, i.e. black suns!”
- “The Sun is cold!”
- “You must use your heads for thinking, not as hat stands!”

Reminds me of this: https://xkcd.com/435/
Really, it probably IS all logic at the bottom of everything. Gaia’s bottom is just a lot closer to the top.
It’s a good SFX, but was it useful at all? Or worse for Viv, if it was! It seems like it was just forgotten.
Reminds me of time cube.
OTOH, compare these quotes:
Magick is the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with Will — Aleister Crowley
Magick is the art of causing changes in consciousness in conformity with the Will — Dion Fortune
Magick is just the art of changing the focus of consciousness at will — Robert Anton Wilson, The Earth Will Shake
Causing change by directing energy with one’s will — Kerr Cuhulain, Full Contact Magick
“The Sun is cold!”
… well, relatively speaking, Sun does belong between the colder stars …
