Great post on Žižek and quantum mechanics by Uchicago's Sean Carroll. It made the innermost geek - the one who double majored in physics and quantum mechanics and wrote fan-mail to Abdus-Salam - break out. Also, Žižek is definitely a wave and a particle at the same time.
You majored in Physics/Quantum Mechanics and are now getting a PhD in History. HOLY $^%#@# @#@#T!!! More in awe than ever.
