Reality

The data recorded from millions of collision events per second is filtered through two major trigger systems to store only hundreds of events for further analysis. Consequently, the results of CERN’s experiments depend on computerised algorithms, which value the relevance of the collision events and automatically isolate this data away from becoming potentially important information. Who is aware of the significance of these events, events excluded during the self-created focus of analytic interest? How do filters affect our perception in general? How do you perceive your illusive reality bubble?
