you all know what it means to do
full it must be said that it’s easy
just go to the pump at the
condition obviously that the pump where
we will not be a vacuum pump
but to refuel instead
empty what does that mean is this
that it’s the opposite of refueling
ie rubles and until
the tank gauge indicates that the
tank is empty we guess what to do
the emptiness is still a little more
complicated it’s a little more useful than
simply broke down
so first what is the empty
a quick look in a
dictionary puzzles because he
shows that there are many kinds of
empty
for example the vacuum that can be done
with a vacuum pump does not have big
thing to do with Hindu nothingness
neither with Buddhist emptiness nor with
the void that I could do around
I have the right cigar in a room
nor with the vertiginous emptiness that is
frail acrophobes and who exit
the mountaineer and therefore by an ironic effect
which could be that the move it be
victim of too much of
meanings and so it must be specified
what is meant by this word has proceeded
to what paul valery call a
cleaning the verbal situation the joy
that I forgot the quotation marks of which I
again it is necessary to proceed
I wanted to quote a cleaning of the
verbal situation I closed guillet for
speak like paul valery like that one
is quiet
the idea of living she evokes first
the absence of anything the nothing
nil that are three words almost
synonym that is to say they say to
pretty much the same thing this idea of
empty
about that you noticed a
amazing thing sexy have said these three
words one behind the other in the
preceded by the pronoun game that
give this I have nothing vacuum I did not
want nothing then 7
this weirdness of us is hardly
even she misleads us because doing
the void is not the same as
first want nothing because to do
the void must already want to do
emptiness it is not doing the
nothingness
that is to say shaved the universe you
to stay modest this is not either
to do nothing is not to be lazy
and so even if the idea of empty evokes
a rarefied presence
the absence the emptiness it’s not the same
thing that nothingness and that’s so much better
for me who talks to you about it because
the idea of nothing if we think about it
little is an unthinkable idea unthinkable
because in fact it’s an idea that is
destructive of itself
as soon as we start to imagine or
think nothingness we do some
thing that precisely he can not
be as soon as the idea of birth
forge in our mind the movement
even of our thinking transforms the
nil in question a kind of
substance to which we are going to attribute
a spatiality a materiality that the
nose we could not own without
contradict his own definition is
so a paradox think the nothing is
never thought of anything the idea given in
is a matter to think that if we are
do not think since it becomes a kind
of material that destroys the same
data years it is as soon as there is
thought
so if loving is not nothingness
what’s another one of the definitions by
quick example that’s what’s left in a
container after we have it all
removed so the alive it would be the place of
the radical gap of emptiness
absolute except that this definition poses
a problem because if the vacuum is
nothing is that he has something
something special and
curiously this something of
particular must not be must not
be removed when empty
otherwise the void in question becomes a pure
nothing that can not be since we have
said he was something so
so to make the void
it is absolutely necessary to remove everything
absolutely everything except emptiness
it’s been three minutes since I
spoken
and we did not go much further
in circles I even feel like
a pitcher to look like a pitcher
even what is a pretty feeling
unpleasant but that I can
interrupt by reminding me that the
jug
it is precisely the chosen example of
cards to talk about emptiness if I take
a jug I can remove the water she
contains then it contains air
keep a jug
the jug era I can pump it to
that moment he stays in the jug the
electromagnetic radiation emitted
by these walls game can cancel it in
bringing the temperature of the pitcher to
absolute zero
we quote I can remove the jug it goes
stay a place a portion of the spaces
should I also withdraw
the space where should I interrupt
the exfiltration company that I come
to begin
where stops the list of objects that I
have to tea to empty
ask this question is to understand
that all in the phrase emptiness it’s
what’s left when we’ve removed everything
depends on the physical theory that I
chosen as a reference is to
from objects that she considers
as real as I could by noting in
eliminating these objects define such or
such type of city for example if we
takes Newton’s physics the one we
learn in high school for this physics he
there are three kinds of objects in the universe
there is space is the time ago there are
material body to empty
removed all the material body and
then there is empty space
that is to say without anything nada
the interior that spends its time
stay itself is equal to itself
very well except that physics we
uses today to describe the
matter is not at all that of
newton
it’s another physics called
quantum physics in physics
quantum when we remove the particles
all the particles we get a vacuum
which is not empty space
it’s a void that contains some
fatigued matter is besides
particles that are well and truly there but
which does not really exist what the
kind of ghost that he lacks
energy so that they can only
not materialize and they become
unobservable so-called
virtual particles and l snorts
in this emptiness way a little vegetative
like sleeping beauty
how to wake her up but he
give them an energetic kiss
that is to say give them the mega
electron volt that is missing at their full
the incarnation
to do this it’s very simple we do
high particle collisions
energy and its particles behave
like charming princes
microscopic
they give their energy to the void
quantum particle shot
virtual downstream this energy
become real and kind of empty
with an energy that can be very
long
she who was doing a long piece
since the beginnings of the universe found
the vitality she once had and
leave this landmark with an energy
colossal
when I tell you there is a void
quantum it reminds of a
intuition so great what a blush
pascal philosopher mathematician
physicist death pascal intuition that he has
in a letter in fact 147
letter he addressed to Santa Claus
so it’s not Santa Claus
firs
it’s the reverend Santa Claus who
was a Jesuit author of a book
titled the full of emptiness with which
obviously pascal blaise was not
Okay
and in this paschal blaise letter
writes this there are so many
difference between nothingness and space
empty that between the empty space and the
matter the living space says he holds the
middle between nothingness and matter
in other words, the status is empty
quantum that’s exactly the status that
blaise pascal attributed to the fast all
short
it’s a kind of prologue to the
reference state matter more
low energy everything emerges matter
such as we as the
know without them ever cutting
its umbilical cord the material remains
connected to the void from where it came out
then quantum physics is
obviously very complicated but in
big we can say it’s a physics that
describes all the manifestations of
physical world as excitations to
from this fundamental step of
the material from this void
quantum which is a kind of tuning fork
primitive of the universe so if I you
say this is simply because
the fact that the quantum vacuum backwards
of the meaning of words being complained may
inspire us
that is, it’s a metaphor
which allows us to think that eventually
to empty
that’s somehow doing the
full since empty and full but
so full of what I would take
the quantum analogue past the full of
desires for energy is the full in
life of passion
it’s full of existential libido
it’s full of self- events
in great vivacity and so my
advice is next next time
that you will have a pump stroke that you
you will feel complained of troubles a
go for a ride by thought in
this source of vital momentum that is the
quantum vacuum and you’ll see that pass
by this void there is the opposite
empty passage
the test of the lack of withdrawal from
calm that emptiness forces us into
bring out more alive more
delusional more end less banal and so
positively boosted me I leave you
think about it
hoping not to have spoken in the
empty
and especially by wishing you good
courage for this little meditation
philosophical fisico that I propose to you
with potentially stupefying virtues
[Applause]
