Every one of us on the planet, once we have been converted to the reductionism that reverberates incessantly in our ears, drones on about the idea that objects are made of microscopic elementary particles whose overall pattern makes up the universe. But this view is wrong, because it disregards everything to do with quantum magic. Particles can be inter-ferentially superimposed, but sentient beings cannot. The connection between macroscopic objects as defined by physical theory in accordance with our experience is more subtle and has more to do with the idea of "connectedness". "When 1 talk about complexity, I'm referring to the basic Latin meaning of complexus, 'that which is bound together'. The constituent parts are different, but like a tapestry, it is the whole that should be seen (Morin, 1995).
