In Act 4, Scene 1, the character Prospero says:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;These our actors,<br \/>\nAs I foretold you, were all spirits and<br \/>\nAre melted into air, into thin air.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here, Shakespeare uses <em>&#8220;into thin air&#8221;<\/em> to describe something that disappears or vanishes completely and almost magically.<\/p>\n<h3>Meaning<\/h3>\n<p>The phrase <em>&#8220;out of thin air&#8221;<\/em> has come to mean <strong>something that appears suddenly, unexpectedly, or without explanation, as if from nothing<\/strong>. It is often used to describe things that seem to materialize or be created with no apparent source or cause. For example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8220;The magician pulled a rabbit out of thin air.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;She came up with a solution out of thin air.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It conveys a sense of surprise or disbelief, as though the event defied logic or reason.<\/p>\n<h3>From the album &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/idea.membrane.com\/songwriter\/tag\/among-the-living\/\">Among the Living<\/a>&#8221; by <a href=\"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/Daniel\/\">Daniel<\/a><\/h3>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/global_warming\/\">The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment<\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/MegaEpix-Enormous\/multimedia\/VIII\/\">MegaEpix Enormous<\/a><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Out-of-Thin-Air-0.mp3 Out-of-Thin-Air-0.mp4 Out-of-Thin-Air-I.mp3 Out-of-Thin-Air-I.mp4 Out-of-Thin-Air-II.mp3 Out-of-Thin-Air-II.mp4 Out-of-Thin-Air-III.mp3 Out-of-Thin-Air-III.mp4 Out-of-Thin-Air-space-intro.mp3 [Intro] Running low (Thin on air) Down below (Not much there) [Verse 1] Where is the money going to come from (Out of thin air) When all is said and done&#8230; (Out of thin air) [Chorus] Running low (Thin on air) Down below (Not much there) [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[9,14,3955],"tags":[4065,546,563],"class_list":["post-39431","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-daniel","category-lyrics","category-megaepix-enormous","tag-among-the-living","tag-mp4","tag-music-videos"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39431","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39431"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39431\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":39441,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39431\/revisions\/39441"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39431"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39431"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39431"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
