Default Re: Do I Misunderstand The Double Slit Experiment

I know it can be very complicated but it seems that if this is a true experiment the interference pattern speaks for itself.Simply put, the interaction of light with light breeds darkness. Following the light after the darkness reveals that light leeches through until another moment of interference. This is what the experiment reveals and no more.

Now, to assume that light is particles(photons) is consequent to the Newtonian look at light and of course the Wave theory is around the corner. To deal with light as both particle and wave is a preconceived notion because of our dependence on particularity(matter broken into parts and pieces)and the consequence or retort is the wave theory. The idea of particles(photons) in no way is brought to life by this experiment.

As a follow up on this conceive that light and darkness are realities(i.e. darkness is not the absence of light but a reality of its own.
