Let's Talk About Hawking (1)

[1] Hawking who plays rock and roll

Hello everyone, I'm Molly, this issue we come together to read Hawking, let's listen to today's music first

(Check the music for yourself Keep Talking)

This song is Hawking and the British god-level psychedelic rock band Pink Floyd recorded rock work "Keep Talking", in which he uses the electronic voice generator to contribute, the cover of the album is full of psychedelic colors, the entire MV is also very psychedelic, the cover is two metallic side faces opposite, the mouth emits sound waves connected together, indicating "talking", but I don't know what the two people say, this is what I am particularly curious about, and I don't know what the two robots chat about Hawking's song is to express the dialogue between humans, but with a metallic dialogue picture, this is very rock outside, as if to say you see, iron people communicate with each other, humans need to communicate more, of course, this is my own brain opening statement, no one has explained it like this.

In the song, Hawking says the following two passages through an electronic speech synthesizer:

"For thousands of years, humans have lived like animals. But suddenly our imagination is unleashed, and that is when we learn to speak. ”

"There's no need for such apathy, all we need to do is make sure we're communicating."

Some people say that these two paragraphs highlight that in Hawking's heart, communication between people is extremely important, and communication is the starting point of everything.

I think these two sentences can very glimpse Hawking's character, ah,

He advised everyone not to be indifferent and to talk more.

As one of the smartest people in the world, have you heard these classic quotes from Hawking?

"Einstein was wrong — he said 'God doesn't play with sex'. Research on black holes shows that God not only plays with color, but even sometimes he confuses us because He throws them out of sight. ”

"I've noticed that even people who claim that everything is predestined and that we are powerless to change look left and right before crossing the street."

"My goal is simple, to understand the universe as a whole (Passerby A: 'Hawking is northeast?'" - Why it is so, why it exists. ”

"When I was 21, my expectations went to zero. Since then, everything has turned into an extra perk. ”

"If life is without fun, it will be a tragedy."

"Eternity is a long time, especially for the end."

——

You may be wondering, just put a hawking song, is I going to say that Hawking is a singer, not the physicist of the world civilization?

To be sure, we are talking about the same person.

When hawking is mentioned, it seems that everyone can think of one of the greatest physicists of our time, born on the 300th anniversary of Galileo's death, very mysterious, sick in a wheelchair and relying on assistants to help do research, write books, etc., in fact, in addition to these, Hawking has done a lot of crazy things, there are many autobiographies about Hawking, there are movies. But why do I still want to read it again with you, because this time we are reading Hawking's biography of himself, what his fate looks like from his perspective, and his attitude to life from his description of life.

Fans of "The Big Bang Theory" and "Simpson" must know that Hawking has played himself, appeared in the big bang of life, and heard that Sherwin fainted with excitement when he saw Hawking himself, and he also talked stumbling, Hawking also joked that he was a "fainting fan", "Simpson" in Hawking is dubbing his own character, really an avant-garde and interesting scientist, and because of this, he can become one of the most well-known scientists in today's society.

The feeling he gives people is that no matter how healthy they are, whether they are getting older or not, they are very open-minded and very good at playing. In addition to doing research, writing books or something, he also talked about love and marriage 2 times, as well as just said to participate in TV series, sing rock, Hawking also parachute, travel around the world, but also play Weibo to interact with our little Chinese singer Wang Junkai, from these things can not see Hawking's age, "always young, always tearful" The phrase is perfectly put on this scientist who began a lifetime of illness in his twenties.

And

When I watched the movie before, I felt that he was really handsome when he was young, I thought it was to beautify him, and then I went to check the photos of his youth, in fact, I was really handsome.

Handsome, intelligent and talented, can play, but also contribute to the world, I god, accidentally issued a fan-like exclamation, this kind of powerful person's life, how thick a book can be written to understand.

Hawking only spent 129 pages introducing himself, including some photographs.

Just feel like I spoil hawking's life, in fact, what I said is everywhere on the Internet, as we all know, it is the opinion of the bystanders, how Hawking himself looks, you have to read it to really understand.

Let's go inside and see Hawking's world.

At the beginning of the story, we must introduce the background of growing up,

The parents' families are actually not rich, not even well-off, but by chance, they were all sent to Oxford by chance, and their parents were veritable intellectuals. His father studied medicine, and his mother worked many kinds of jobs, although their family was in London, and it happened that Hawking was born in Oxford, because during World War II, the Germans and the British exchanged, the Germans did not bomb Oxford and Cambridge in Britain, and the British did not bomb Heidelberg and Gedingen in Germany.

Their family's house in London was bought for very little money during World War II, and there is a large crater blown up by war shells not far from the house, which is where Hawking explored and played with his friends when he was a child. His little friend is also very magical to him, the parents of the little friend are not intellectuals, the school they go to is different, the education is different from their family, the little friend is proficient in boxing and football, which Hawking will not do.

Hawking had two biological sisters, and when he was 14 years old, the family adopted an older brother, but then the brother died for unknown reasons, so he did not say much. Later, there was a sister who became a doctor, and his father was happy, probably because his father was also a doctor, and his daughter also became a doctor, and she had a feeling that her mantle could be passed down.

Although the parents are intellectuals, but their family is not very rich, once the father work transfer, and then by the way bought a house outside the city the whole family moved to the city to commute to the city, after buying a house Dad's money-saving nature was revealed, the house bought some decoration, since then there has been no decoration for decades, where broken on the small repair to get it, in addition to the house, Dad's appearance is also very casual, remember when talking about Van Gogh before, Van Gogh parents attach great importance to wearing, need to match with their own class, To dress decently gentleman, but Hawking's father feels that as long as he can save money, wear anything, appearance is not important, he does not enjoy life, no matter how cold it is, he does not install collective heating, he would rather wear several nightgowns and several layers of sweaters, think about it is quite cold. Can't afford to buy a car, bought a pre-war London taxi instead, now everyone on the Internet likes to send a certain big brand of foundation liquid flat replacement, a bag of flat replacement, a piece of clothing flat replacement, I feel that it is probably to use a price that they can accept to replace the actual inner pursuit but can not afford to buy things, you see at that time people understand the "flat replacement" this game, but the father who cut the door is still very interesting, he and Hawking built a small garage for their car, but this garage caused dissatisfaction from neighbors, Even Hawking felt embarrassed and embarrassed, but Dad was like a nobody; although Dad saved money, he also had to take the children on vacation, bought a gypsy caravan and modified it by the sea, and every summer the family spent the summer there, until the government dragged it away. And Hawking himself said that although his father was very frugal with himself, he was particularly generous to others.

Hawking depicts a cute, kind and pragmatic father, this is the father in his eyes, with subjective colors. We are all the same, looking at the same thing, everyone sees the same angle differently. For example, I saw a message some time ago that the girl's bag was robbed on the street, because it happened too suddenly, the girl did not react, but someone in the crowd swooped out to chase the thief, and after a while came back to return the bag to the girl, and the one who helped her recover the bag was a plainclothes policeman. This content was posted on social media, many people commented below, mostly girls, all said too touching, there are too many people around us silently protecting us, very happy, or plainclothes police are too handsome, etc., but some people will say that you see this society is too chaotic, the street dares to blatantly rob.

I just want to say, one thing, a positive person to explain you think it is not bad, a person with a lot of negative emotions to explain, you feel very miserable.

Back to our main topic, we looked at Hawking's original family situation, and also looked at his studies.

In terms of learning, Hawking's previous learning was not particularly good, due to different educational methods, he studied in kindergarten at the age of 8 to read, and his sister was educated at home at the age of 4 to read, he felt that his sister must be smarter than himself at that time.

Later, after moving, he went to the girls' school, when the school also accepted boys under the age of 10, and when Dad was on his annual trip to Africa, his mother took 3 children to find his classmates and lived there for a while, during which time he hired Hawking to hire a tutor, and the teacher let her read the Bible every day, and then wrote an article about that article, although Hawking read a lot of The Bible during that time, but he never said that he had faith.

It's not that he believes in science and has no faith, you see Newton, the great physicist, many people say that Newton has no faith, in fact, he can study theology, alchemy or whatever, I heard that the theological content in his notes is not worse than the scientific content, and there are many mysterious organizations that rumor the Red Rosicrucians, I learned about these things when I read "Leonardo da Vinci's Code" before, and I found that I really knew a fur. And Newton is also particularly interesting, buy stocks or something, but also lost miserably, well back to the main topic, continue to say Hawking's learning.

Later Hawking school exams, the first exam is called 11 plus exams, select children suitable for academic education to be assigned to a school, another school is ordinary children, just like our key primary schools, key high schools, and then exams, popularly speaking, is the key classes in key high schools, Hawking is not easy to enter the key schools, now facing class placement, the pass line is the top 20 in the class, three semesters in the first semester he 24, the second semester 23, fortunately the third semester 18 into the key class, quite dangerous. He never finished the key class, he never entered the middle and upper classes, all in the middle and lower reaches, Hawking himself described it with a parenthesis, he said: It is a class where all students are very smart. This shows that although he has achieved mid- and lower-level results, it is OK. He was particularly interesting, describing school life when he said: "My teacher was desperate for my writing. But my classmates gave me the nickname "Einstein," and it seemed they were seeing some good signs. When I was 12 years old, one friend and another bet with a bag of candy that I would get nothing. I don't know if the stakes have settled, and if so, which side the winner is.

Speaking of betting, I feel that Hawking is still quite naughty, he seems to have always liked to bet, in the future work is also, often bet, every time I watch him bet, I feel that the work seems to be more fun, and I think he is a very good person.

Now the content is on page 33 of the book, and there is a photo of Hawking at the bottom of this page when he is sixteen or seventeen years old, and I think Hawking must have liked to show us this photo, because it is really handsome!

Because dad had always encouraged his interest in science, and he had loved to observe things running since he was a child, whether it was the electric train when he was a child or the things in dad's laboratory, which aroused his curiosity, although his hands-on ability was very poor, often dismantling things and unable to assemble them back. When he was in middle school, he decided to specialize in mathematics and physics, one reason is that he feels that physics is different from medicine, his father is a doctor, he needs interpersonal relationships or something, he is not good at this aspect, and physics is just doing research, and there is also the reason that he thinks that smart children learn mathematics and physics, of course, the most important reason is that Hawking said: Physics and astronomy give us the hope of understanding where we come from and why we are here.

Hawking junior high school knows the direction of their own life to develop, we now in addition to young people, there are many middle-aged people may also have the elderly for their own life feel confused, confused and looking for the process is quite torturous, many people either give up looking, continue to suffer psychologically, live while spitting on life while still relatively stable days, some people really dare to put down everything to change the status quo, of course, the latter need to take risks, need to accept the uncertainty and unknown of the future, No one can understand the pressure they need to endure before they get out of the head, and not all those who bravely change the status quo can survive it.

Let's go back to the book,

The book will be accompanied by photos of Hawking in each period, which are either photos of happy friends, playing with his sisters, or he is happy when he is studying. Each one was filled with happiness, very different from the picture of Van Gogh shown in the biography of Van Gogh, and I remember that there was a picture of him at school with his classmates in the biography of Van Gogh, where he sat, one leg on the other, with a hat on his knee, holding his arm, expressionless, feeling that he was looking at everything mercilessly, and he himself was not happy at all. Of course, these two people are also completely different lives, can't help but feel a little emotional, and a little regretful, I originally thought that it was not Van Gogh's family factors that he was like this,

But psychologist Adler does not believe that the original family determines a person's fate, he believes in teleology, not because the pain of childhood trauma makes us unable to be happy, but because we do not want to pursue happiness, so we maintain this pain. That is to say, personal consciousness is very important, Van Gogh and Hawking have very different personal consciousness, well, I don't know why these two great people who seem to be completely incompatible are linked together to say, a little far.

Again, it doesn't matter if you don't know Adler, his master you must know, called Freud, but Adler and Freud have different views, so they are independent.

We read hawking's family environment and small things about childhood together today, and someone said, "Lucky people are healed by childhood all their lives, and unfortunate people are cured of childhood all their lives." "Hawking should be the lucky one."

Well, we'll talk about this today, next time, we'll see how Hawking went to college.
