Chet Baker, Alfama, Beat bluesy, Fado, in the silence of a Tempest, the "another one" of us all.
Qubit, blah blah, quantum physics and more etc.

But
wait
look around
in silence

just wait
cat cool
(was Schrödinger's cat black tiger Dark green eyed?)

Sails on the dead afternoon, bow seagull white
delta swallows hundreds
arriving

that's where these words were written

well, mathematics's a problem in here
when god plays dice
does he play
or
does He
gamble?

I only know what I know
sang Chet

I used words of a Fado -Eu não me entendo-,; it means -i do not understand the self of this Me-.
No, not existentialist, no no no.
You have to here these words in a human voice floating over a portuguese guitar...
There's a arabjewromanlisbon saudade... Saudade is a very complex word that means nostalgia+love+afar+return+life+memory+history+our style....and it never ends. It is a Mother Word....

But don't change your 'style' (hair) for me -Chet Baker's funny valentine

That's it.
Qubit!
Stay...

Now you can hear a very little bit of a Fado.
Somehow there's some kind of similarity with Chet Baker's songs.
And I feel that cool jazz is Ok in Alfama, the old quarter of Lisbon where I live now.
The small photo is of Alfama, obviously.

It is Fado and my thinkings on Singularity (Artificial Intelligence...There's a site about that) and QuBit computing.
Too much in a small chunk of words. That's the QuBit of It.
Some words are portuguese:
Vento=Wind
Tempo=Time

Now you can hear a little bit of Fado.
This particular one is sung by one of the best Fado singers, Camané. You can search YouTube if you want.
You can hear the portuguese guitar.

It is traditional of old Lisbon only. And we really do not know the exact roots of this type of singing.
It is sung in taverns, by night...

Some of the lyrics were created by our best poets.
