String Theory calms Quantum Froth? Comment on Analogy?

Question

I am writing an informative 6-8 min speech on string theory. I am not going to get too in depth; just use basic analogies. I wanted to show the benifits of using strings to marry quantum physics and general relativity. All I was going to do is show that if the fundamental building blocks are particles then they would be like dice. I would then display some dice, rolling them, etc. Then I would say that quantum space is like many, many dice- probablity rules here, making things not so easy to predict. I heard on a documentary that the strings in string theory "calm" this quantum froth. So I was going to use rubber bands to show that the dice, instead of being treated as seperate entities, could be treated as sets of probabilty equations, which are interpretated as strings. It is easier to understand this quantum froth (the calming) by looking at it as a multitude a strings. By this slight "calming" of the equations, quantum physics and general relativity are married.

Answer 1

I might be off the mark but Im not sure that you want to use that analogy. Many dice makes results easier to predict, not more. Or maybe I didnt get your analogy. Im thinking bell curve.

Answer 2

If you are not sure about the validity of what you are presenting in an "informative" speach, and feel the need to seek confirmation from an internet forum in order to validate said speach, I say don't speak until you are convinced yourself.
