One thing I've always wondered about is why crazy people are always fixated on quantum physics and then vague musical terms like "resonances".

LLMs do the same thing when they develop psychosis* except GPT also starts talking about "recursion" and Claude starts trying to enter nirvana.

* historical term "going Rampant"

Your personal insult aside, resonance is a fundamental term in physics and harmonic oscillators are fundamental to quantum field theory and modern physics. Music was a metaphor- this isn’t Nature.
