Notes

gollark: Have you heard of Greg Egan?
gollark: Magic systems generally care about higher-level objects and what humans do and whatever, instead of describing universal physical laws.
gollark: *Our* universe has cold uncaring physics, which life, particularly intelligent life, can exploit like everything else if it researches them enough.
gollark: Thus, my probably horribly flawed way to categorize it is that magic is where the universe/setting is weirdly interested in sentient beings/life/humans/etc, and generally more comprehensible to them.
gollark: I was thinking about this a lot a while ago, and determined that magic wasn't really an aesthetic since there are a few stories which have basically everything be "magic" which does identical things to technology.
