#language is one of the #shadows of the #mind ... I guess that’s the ontology of ‘throwing shade’ ... trying to wrap my mind around inter dimensional interactions and how one dimension shadows in the lower dimensions. It’s so fascinating how we are trapped in a 3 dimensional space and we are restricted to only see the world in 2 dimensions. To us the world is essentially flat, and we only perceive depth cause of light bouncing effects. Virtual reality allows some sort of departure from that trap. It seems we are close to simulate how a 4 dimensional being could see our 3 dimensional world. All those medical virtual reality apps where you can MRI through a body are kinda going there. I spent hours rotating 4-dimensional cubes ‘tessaracts’ trying to click into the 4th dimension. To no avail yet. But something is shifting very slowly. What a time to be alive! ;) so up in the clouds these days.. someone pull me back to earth please. It’s so funny I was telling some of this to one of my dear co-workers.. and he was like.. Dimitri, we are trying to figure out this project here, in 3 dimensions. Please stop. I couldn’t stop laughing.. ;) 🌌 #dimensions #4d #spatial #lattice #8L #quantumgravity (at San Francisco, California)
