I tried to build a circuit which would randomely flash an LED. I guess it works, at least it looks random, of course its not really. But I was thinking about the criteria for something to be truly random. For instance, this device will flash the LED only, so the LED operates in only 2 states, on or off. To be of total randomness, it needs to be able to operate in an infinite number of states (bright, dim etc). Also, the LED will always change state at least once every 2 seconds. To be random, it could be off for a billion years and on for just a second. So I was thinking, these are dimensions, ie. time. There are supposedly numerous dimensions, some say 9, some say 11, some more. So, surely, for something to be completely random, it has to perform an action which is outputted in any of these dimensions, or multiple ones. Hmm, this is hard to explain, but imagine an equation where everything is X :lol: . As an example, something may happen in a dimension or multiple dimensions, under the rules of every other dimension, yet that something is undesigned.
