box of sunshine
box of sunshine

This is a box that contains a beam of golden, smiling light. Or maybe it's not a beam, but a collection of motes. What with the dual nature of light, y'know, it's hard to tell whether it's a beam or some motes.

References

  • The description references the "duality" principle of quantum mechanics -- the concept that light exhibits properties of both wave and particle (or in this case, beam and mote).
  • The terms "beam" and "mote" are a play on a well-known Bible verse: "And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me cast out the mote out of thine eye; and lo, the beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye." (Matthew 7:3-5, American Standard Version). (Here mote means "speck," while beam is used in the sense of "a large piece of wood", not "ray of light.")
