Default The Elegant Universe

For the purpose of simplicity, I'll label the contents of this forum as "metaphysics".

Has anyone done research on quantum theory or string theory in the context of metaphysics?

I did some very high level research on it a few years ago and found it to be very fascinating. Nova has a great overview of the subject called The Elegant Universe, a three-hour miniseries you can watch from the web. From what I can tell, pretty much "anything goes" when it comes to string theory.

It's been a while since I've watched the Nova series so I may watch it again, but I'm wondering if anyone has investigated quantum/string theory and how it relates to metaphysics. If you're out there, please enlighten me!
