Comment on What It Takes To Fly by yuumei

Thank you! XD I just thought I strongly disagree and it kind of morphed into a short argument exchange... Because to me there was nothing - even if science would be applied - wrong with the beautiful piece of art by yuumei.  Apart from that - art should go beyond science, that's one of the reasons it exists. Many examples in literature are a proof that quite often the first step to discovering something is imagining it - then trying to prove it's right or wrong. Imagination, logical thinking, experiments, examples which outcome is the same in the same environment and any other factors that we have discovered are part of creation of the outcome, which proves the theory. But first step is imagination. That's why we have fairy tales. Fantasy stories. To form, to expand the imagination of a child, to make them see more, be aware of multiple possibilities, not only one way - which can be either white or black, right or wrong. That's not true. Same with science-fiction. We know too little to claim we know everything. As humanity, of course, because one single person's knowledge is not even the size of a needle in a haystack, enormous haystack, of all the information available to all people on Earth. In string theory there are more than 4 dimensions. Maybe there are different "lives" whose existence is based on levels of empathy in humans? They could live in a dimension parallel to ours, not perceivable to us. Who says not? Can they prove it's wrong? Or right? No. In a nutshell, fantasy can also be true. Somewhere. Laws of physics that apply to us may be not the same in a different universe. Scientifically speaking, we can't prove it wrong. So, scientifically speaking, we can't prove any art is "not scientifically correct", even if we would try to judge art in terms of science. Which shouldn't be done XD Sorry for the incredibly long message xD
