Space and Time April 30

Prof. O’Malley’s point of the dislocation of space and time is one of my favorite things we’ve discussed in class. The idea that things are displaced through time and space is not something I ever thought about. When something is recorded and then played at a later date, time doesn’t exists for that recording. Last night I was listening to Elvis Presley. Elvis has been dead for 41 years but, last night I was listening to him sing as if he was right there with me. I thought it was interesting that the first time this really happened was with Bell and his telephone. He used a dead persons ear drum to record vibrations. That is the most insane genus thing I’ve heard. To use a dead persons ear breaks so many walls of time because in a way, that person is hearing something and they never should have again. The idea of displaced time and space is an interesting one that I did not expect from this class.
