Understanding Relational Quantum Mechanics
Relational Quantum Mechanics is a theory postulated by Carlo Rovell
- A system has one state relative to a given observer, and a different state relative to another observer.
- An observable has one value relative to one observer, and a different value relative to another observer.

This means: when we are in the middle of a forest, and we close our eyes, are the trees still there? Of course, they are, because their particles interact with all the other particles in the forest.
But when no one is in the woods, and a tree falls, does it make a noise? In this case, no, the wave particles only interact with other wave particles in the air. They don't interact with a particle that is a part of a 'hearing mechanism'.
