Der Alte würfelt (2011)

The title refers to Albert Einstein’s famous statement: „Der Alte würfelt nicht.“ (“The Old One does not play dice.”) — spoken in opposition to the indeterminacy at the heart of quantum mechanics.

The image presents a fragile tower of dice, a symbolic monument to chance. It teeters between order and chaos, hinting that even apparent randomness might veil an underlying order.

The Old Man becomes a metaphor here: perhaps the universe does play dice — just not by rules we can comprehend.
