Roger Booth is 50% done with The Janus Point: A New Theory of Time
An invitation to see inside a beautiful mind, connecting the essential discoveries of physics, historically and theoretically. As you fall down the rabbit hole, many things may rush by you in a blur, but, to your surprise, you'll be able to take a few things off the shelves to examine them Remember not to drop them on the heads down below you!

Walk a mile in somebody else's mind. Or somebody else's dog's mind. Find enlightenment in the mind of someone rewriting a bittersweet ill-fated song.

Roger Booth is on page 173 of 392 of The Innermost Kernel: Depth Psychology and Quantum Physics. Wolfgang Pauli's Dialogue with C.G. Jung
Extended quote:
The factors creating order in mind as well as matter might very well be called 'archetypes', provided that they are not defined as psychic contents. They must be seen as lying beyond psyche and matter but manifesting in both areas. On the psychological level they take the form of archetypal imagery and symbols. On the physical level, on the other hand, they manifest as laws of nature.

SPOILER: Kate Gompert is my favorite character so far. Personalizing her experience, I would say her "filter" represents Expectation. In our culture, expectation is dialed up at every opportunity. And the knob only goes one way. Some of us get a short break, where it disappears for a couple hours, maybe once or twice in our adult lives. But the breaks make you conscious of the filter.

You should be in a trippy mood when you read this. Lavender tea works for me. Your mileage may vary.
