Without going too deep, the implication is that the experimenters are somehow connected to the experiment itself and no matter what they do, they are unable to prevent their influence over it. On the level of meta-physics this is evidence of our oneness with everything. Somehow we are connected to everything outside of...

We then memorise these events and from these memories are able to predict the consequence of certain actions. The concepts of past and futur...
