    [quote=Gelcube;7449]A good representation of it was in Walter Jon Williams’s “Aristoi”. It was called Metaglap Nano. Very insidious stuff. [/quote]

    You must have read Greg Bear’s [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_Music_(novel)]Blood Music[/url].

    Actually, Blood Music’s observer concept might be relevant to the Astlan universe as well, even though it’s based on a misunderstanding of quantum physical observation. Or a play off of the popular misunderstanding.
