Synopsis:
- The flow of time is mysteriously altered by measurements
- The classical world emerges from the quantum world thanks to measurement
- A continuous process of the probabilistic kind gives rise to a discontinuous process of the deterministic kind
- Measurement of a system consists in a chain of interactions between the instrument and the system, whereby the states of the instrument become dependent on the states of the system
- Eventually, states of the observer's consciousness are made dependent on states of the system, and the observer "knows" what the value of the observable is
- Somewhere between the system and the observer's consciousness the "collapse" occurs
