So there could be another timeline but in that one they a million times more advanced than us but we havnt been contacted by them. So is it impossible?
Hey Rob, I wanted to ask you about the so-called "Zero Point Field". I have heard a lot about it within "mystic science", but I haven't seen it turn up in your project.
Could you tell me what role this Zero Point Field has within your theory?
OMG....thinking of nothing outside the universes is as mind-boggling and shocking as thinking about the concept of 'eternity'. Can't force my mind to picture nothing! Would the universes have walls or boundaries that would cause us to bounce us away from the edges? Trying to get out into nothingness would be like beating ur head against a wall, wouldn't it?
ok, if the 5th is the different variations of an event, how does that make it different from the 6th, is the 6th just being able to go through those different event timelines as you wish?
i have a doubt - . we know the ant cant go in the 3rd dimension..but the fly can surely come down in the second dimension, no??? and as you said...the dinosaurs would be observing all different kinds of universes so i guess they would be observing our universe as well, though we cannot observe their universe like fly and ant....??? it would have been like ghosts eating up humans???
Sadly I no longer understand after Dimension Number 6. I don't see the need for "Phase Space" because are we necessarily "bounded" from different outcomes? Or do we just not know how to move any distance along that axis? In that case we can move to other possible outcomes using the fifth dimension, and the sixth dimension would be all different universes that have different physical constants. Maybe I'm just not getting it.
It frustrates me that science can ridicule witnessed, yet unprovable phenomena such as ghosts yet create these fanciful 'imaginings' about all these possible universes which is actually a million times more ridiculous then believing in ghosts. Think about this. It's all theory and none of it is provable. I don't buy the whole multi-verses of every possible outcome scenario. It's plain ridiculous and it is not real science. Sorry. Just a bunch of self important men with fanciful theories.
Rob I'm confused again. Here you chose not to observe bank robbery with free will. However, in video "Photons and Free Will" you said that free will is an illusion. In "Changing Your Brain" you explained that brain is not static. So, do you think the change of brain that takes during the lifetime of an observer is pre-determined or we have a free will ? If we do, what or who has free will or does the change ? Our meme-set attached to physical body ? (idea from your "Quantum Observer" paragraph)
@iSOdushman In Photons and Free Will I talk about the idea that it's easy to believe free will doesn't exist if you believe there's nothing beyond the fourth dimension, a point I make several times in this current series as well. Absolutely, I believe in extra dimensions and I believe in free will, and that each of us is capable of making a change to our possible futures, and that each of us is constantly taking on as well as discarding new patterns throughout our lives.
Understood. How do you think the process of discarding new patterns occurs ? Random best guess (to determine desired future pattern) based on previous experiences and personal desires or favorable stimuli ? For me it's hard to discard determinism even though my heart favors the free will.
So the line at 5:00 goes "up" like the fly going between sides of the hose. Why can't the line go AROUND the center, staying in the fifth dimension, going from one possible universe to the next until it reaches the dino dimension? The ant can climb AROUND the hose, and would reach the fly eventually. Even if the hose was infinitely wide, wouldn't it be possible to travel sideways in the 5th dimension for SOME distance? Maybe not to dino land, but at least to one where I never wrote this note?
@jasonleeholm Good question! The ant is just like us - moving in a path defined by causality and confined to always moving "forward" on the causal lines because we derive our energy from thermodynamic processes which obey the laws of entropy. So you're right - within the fifth dimension we can imagine backing up past the point where you wrote your note, then moving forward on a different path, but you and I can't use our free will to move our physical bodies backwards in time.
IDK about morality, but I feel that one truly does come closer to perceiving the sixth dimension when on LSD. My brain can imagine all the possible outcomes of an event at the same time; I can imagine a phase space for a given event. One has no control over moving to the 6th dimension or acting upon all those conceivable possibilities, but I would argue that LSD brings a person closer to thinking 6 dimensionally.
I found it annoying that he did not speak of the 'folding the line' metaphor as he did in the 10th dimensional video. Thus it was difficult to imagine 6th dimensional space as any different from the 5th.
@pacattack64 But isn't that what's being shown at 4:42 ? The arrow that leaps from one point to another in the space above the paper is just like the "folding" metaphor.
@socratesrock Sort of. I see it as more of a sci-fi teleportation by higher dimensions here. It lost the similarity to the point-line-branch-fold metaphor by just being an x-y-z cartesian grid.
look, I am an intelligent human being, I'm nor dull or super genius, but I'm rather clever. at 2:41 my brain uncontrollably said to me "Mike, fuck this shit."
power to navigate the dimensions through understanding of multidimensional reality? Rob you've traveled through all of the conceivable universes already havent you? have you experienced reality with beautiful women from mars?
Could lines re-merge if a change is small enough it has no real effect on the rest of the line and as a result the rest of the line is exactly identical to its parallel one? Or do they remain separate lines as they're inherently different. Also I could argue that certain lines could not possibly exist no matter what happens at any point leaving "holes" in the plane that contains all possible lines. I do think randomness exists on a quantum level but that free will is just an illusion by the way.
Hey Rob, your song here made me think about the title of Anathema's last album (great brit rock band, check them out): "we're here because we're here" . I guess you're both inspired by the same source.
@rossschcheese As I say at 6:05, if our reality were in the sixth dimension, then the parallel universes where I make every bad choice would be directly connected to this one and my free will would be meaningless. The fact that we are in the fifth dimension means that I can acknowledge the existence of those other realities within the 6th dimensional phase space of Everett's Many Worlds, and yet also see how those other realities have nothing to do with the one I'm observing.
Okay so you do cover that in a previous blog entry "time travel paradoxes" well then this would mean that chances are I did already create a time machine in the future (from my current view point of now) traveled back in time to August 1984 the night my parents met and gunned them both down resulting in a version of 2011 where my parents have been dead for almost 30yrs and I was never born due to the time traveler me's actions and since it's along a completely different world line
Using the imagery of the ant, hose, and fly, would the seventh dimension be a looping of the sixth dimension? Is each dimension higher in separation found to "infinitize" the dimension before? Like a reality treadmill? I am not arguing or disclaiming the point, just want to be sure I understand up to this...
@2ndhandsoul Yes, I agree. The point line plane postulate can be used to visualize any number of spatial dimensions. So if we think of the 5th dimension as a point, the 6th is a line and the 7th is a plane. With the garden hose imagery then, the ant is a point, the fly is a line to a point the ant can't get to, and the seventh is a way to get to other garden hoses not accessible from our current one. Perhaps we could say the 7th would be like adding a "Y" connector to the hose! :)
@10thdim Hmm, I see. I can visualize that. Though, you mean such a Y junction indicates a point where from thereafter the two lines never again intersect, correct? In order to continue to make a current "loop" in a current line, making any branch infinite by its own right, I guess might look a lot like the branches on a railroad track. At the point you jump off, even if your track is perfectly circular (but seems straight) can switch to the next roundabout, with the switch closing behind.
I've always believed that free will is an illusion and that you make decisions based on the information you have at that point in time. your brain is like a computer that assesses all options then predicts which will be better to you. without knowing the outcome of each choice you will always make the same choice hence your death bed is set at a constant point in space/time. its hard for me to comprehend a version of me with the same past to that moment making a different decision.
@MrMrkenny90 This is why I started out with that quote from cosmologist Martin Rees: "“if the Earth's history were re-run, it could end up with a quite different biosphere." I think that's a good way of re-introducing people to the idea that there is more than one possible future for any of us, or more than one "death bed" as you say: I'm asking people to take Martin Rees's "big picture" idea and make it more personal, to accept that our individual outcomes are not inevitable.
@10thdim Ok look at it this way, if you was to live your life again given the same external influences, and you where unawere of how you lived your life previously, why would you make any different decissions you'd still be programmed in the exact same way. for example in groundhog day, every one other than bill murray was unaware they were reliving the same day and acted exactly the same from day to day making the same decissions.
@MrMrkenny90 regardless if you think like this, the choice of others will never let you have the same deathbed.. because that is something you can not control.
@MrParmesancheese3 but if you dont truly have a choice (ie you will only ever react to an instance in one way) then neither do others so no matter how often you relive your life you will be exposed to the smae external influences.
Thus, since we can generally expect some degree of consistency from each other, (barring the minuscule chance that ours is the only line with this consistency) what rules govern how new lines form?
There is one problem I want to see addressed with the idea of the fifth and sixth dimensions. What causes people to make the choices that diverge into these other lines? After all, there is generally some consistency in people's actions. For example, my dad and I always greet each other using "osu" (a Japanese word we learned from a Karate dojo we studied at). He isn't randomly going to decide to greet me with "shmu" or some other random syllable.
watching your vids makes me kinda wish I wasn't 'alergic' to pot, would be a blast listening while stoned me thinks. Fantastic Rob, keep these great uploads coming m8.
Rob the bank robber would also say their free will enabled them to choose that path. Notice both of you say you have free will, but really neither of you have free will. This example, there are two paths, both exist, both are traveled down.
You are only here because the "you observing here" has to be here because someone has to be here (else it'd be one of the universes where you're not here). Whereas the "you robbing a bank" is there, as someone has to be there too.
ive got a few questions on the 5th and 6th dimensions. firstly right before a split in the 5th dimension, for example when you said i could have stopped watching 5 minutes ago, are there 2 versions of myself occupying the same space in the 4th dimension? also wouldn the 6th dimension be folding the piece of paper so the two versions of me could meet? i thought a new piece of paper would represent a nother point in the 7th dimension?
@MrMrkenny90 Everett's Many Worlds Interpretation tells us this about reality - that the version where you stopped watching is just as real as the one where you kept going. Both occupy their own version of the fourth dimension, but both are inaccessible to each other, so it's not like we should feel crowded by those other parallel universe versions of our reality. :)
And yes,with the visual analogy we're using here, a different paper would be a universe with different physical laws.
You're a top bloke Rob, I bet you sound just as nice in real life too. I get goosebumps when you're able to explain a fascinating concept in layman's terms. Don't stop for a while yet, I'm a bit of a nerd and proud of it and I want to continue watching.
let me see if i can't take a stab at what the seventh dimension is based on what you have said in the videos up to this point. The seventh dimension, being at right angles to all possible universes that arise from the set of conditions created by "our" big bang, would include one point that encompasses all possibilities, times, and space states of "our" universe. Any other point outside this point would be universes with other starting conditions based on "their" big bangs, which is 8th right?
I see youtube's up to their tricks with the counter again - I watched this yesterday and it was at 924 views. A bunch more people have commented since then but it's still at 924. Why do they do that?
@Chortleclips Wow, it's still stuck at 924. So this video was put up on the 9th, I saw it hit 924 views on the 10th, and now a day later it's still at 924. I'll be real curious to see what happens when YouTube finally turns the counter back on!!
@Trancecend Since I own Talking Dog and do the animations myself in my spare time, the largest cost for making these is just my time. I do have some of my staff help on some aspects of these projects when they're not busy with film, television, or AR projects (for instance Willem Schonken recorded and edited my voice for this and the next few animations) but again, as the owner of Talking Dog ultimately I pay the associated costs.
Well your efforts are appreciated. It's facinating stuff!
I especially appreciate the effort that must have gone into working out how to explain everything in a way that people should be able to understand. The animations are great.
Rob, thank you again ... you are doing a great service. that said ... in your song 'The anthropic viewpoint' you sound like the version of Ozzy Ozborne where he chose not to use drugs lol
You are the man. My guru. I thank you so much for taking your time and your effort to share with all of us - why do you do it? I mean - life is pretty tough - and it's hard to create presentations that you make look so easy - when you really are putting effort into this. Is it money? Or do you just want to share your journey with us - and perhaps help us with our own?
Just a question though, is it theoretically possible to make a device that would be able to traverse these other existences? If so, would we as human beings, be able to make something like that?
Even if there is 1x10^500 universes in the sixth dimension, aren't we still only seeing a completely small portion of its infinite multi-verse plane (landscape)? Also another great video keep up the good work!
Rob, I am confused, not to say I don't love your work. But wouldn't a point where dinosaurs were never extinct be one of the many possibilities within the fifth dimension?
Its cool to think that other possible universes might've had different amounts of matter. Maybe a different speed of light or gravity acceleration? Its like we are in a prism representing all possibility and we are riding the beams of light being separated in the colors that represent our destinies. And we're the observers that can look ahead and increase survival. We're made of the light representing our chemical bodies. I wonder if things/beings can be formed in the higher dimensions.
If we could tunnel from one "paper" to another, wouldn't that just have the exact same physical constants as the one you just came from? Since we probably are in the "middle" of an infinite ocean of exact copies and only if we tunneled that infinite distance we would get to a "paper" with different initial conditions.
practically, 10th dimension doesn't exist, since it is just the full set of all systems.
So in a sense, 10th dimension is God and anything lesser (which is required to interact with stuff) would just be local observational entities, which I actually doubt would be able to exist in the space between the "papers".
In the end, it is nice to be confined in this bubble where events can take place and life can occur.
um, since you are three dimensional, as soon as you accept the second dimension in your example you have six dimensions because you are having "you" as a zero dimensional entity, and as a 3D entity, the two dimensions on the paper are 2x3 = 6D.
@melis256 : you are wrong. dimension multiply. That's why the area of a square being 4, the volume of a cube with the same side length is that TIMES the height, which is the new dimension. Math mysticism is nice but just study more math.
Hey Rob, When it comes to faith, How sure are you that there are multiple dimensions and universes? Would you say its 100% exactly true and the only way that makes sense?
@effdatitsnick I love this quote from physicist Raphael Bousso: "This may seem laughable, but without the multiverse our finest theories predict that empty space should contain about 10 to the power of 123 times more energy than it actually does. This has been called the “worst prediction in the history of science” and the “mother of all physics problems.”
So yes, I feel it's 100% true that there is a multiverse of other universes, accessible via extra dimensions.
So by traveling in the fourth dimension, we're also traveling in the fifth dimension automatically, but in a straight line along the fourth axis. A universe without life is like this by default. To deviate from that and change direction in the fifth requires... choice? consciousness? free will? quantum brain effects? How far from self-reproducing chemistry along the evolution of life before a being can choose to observe alternate paths in the fifth dimension?
@jasonleeholm I'm with Schrodinger on this one - he said life is "a unique process which creates pockets of negative entropy". Not alive equals "going along for the ride" in the fourth dimension, so to speak. So I would say _any_ thing that's alive is engaged with this selection process at the fifth dimension, and that would be true all the way back to the most primitive primordial spark of life that started it all way back when.
nice job. this one hurts my brain a bit more than the last few. also, i think i hear some frank zappa influence in the tune. do you listen to frank zappa, rob?
@satisfried I've been a fan of Frank Zappa since 1968, when I played my copy of We're Only In It For the Money more times than I can count. :) I think our voices have a similar timbre at times, so that's part of it as well. But I don't think I was trying to emulate any particular tune when I wrote this one, I just wrote what seemed right for the lyrics.
So there could be another timeline but in that one they a million times more advanced than us but we havnt been contacted by them. So is it impossible?

@10thdim Ok look at it this way, if you was to live your life again given the same external influences, and you where unawere of how you lived your life previously, why would you make any different decissions you'd still be programmed in the exact same way. for example in groundhog day, every one other than bill murray was unaware they were reliving the same day and acted exactly the same from day to day making the same decissions.

@MrMrkenny90 regardless if you think like this, the choice of others will never let you have the same deathbed.. because that is something you can not control.

@MrParmesancheese3 but if you dont truly have a choice (ie you will only ever react to an instance in one way) then neither do others so no matter how often you relive your life you will be exposed to the smae external influences.

Thus, since we can generally expect some degree of consistency from each other, (barring the minuscule chance that ours is the only line with this consistency) what rules govern how new lines form?
Zorc620 2 months ago
There is one problem I want to see addressed with the idea of the fifth and sixth dimensions. What causes people to make the choices that diverge into these other lines? After all, there is generally some consistency in people's actions. For example, my dad and I always greet each other using "osu" (a Japanese word we learned from a Karate dojo we studied at). He isn't randomly going to decide to greet me with "shmu" or some other random syllable.

I have to disagree at 6:37
Rob the bank robber would also say their free will enabled them to choose that path. Notice both of you say you have free will, but really neither of you have free will. This example, there are two paths, both exist, both are traveled down.
You are only here because the "you observing here" has to be here because someone has to be here (else it'd be one of the universes where you're not here). Whereas the "you robbing a bank" is there, as someone has to be there too.

ive got a few questions on the 5th and 6th dimensions. firstly right before a split in the 5th dimension, for example when you said i could have stopped watching 5 minutes ago, are there 2 versions of myself occupying the same space in the 4th dimension? also wouldn the 6th dimension be folding the piece of paper so the two versions of me could meet? i thought a new piece of paper would represent a nother point in the 7th dimension?
MrMrkenny90 2 months ago
@MrMrkenny90 Everett's Many Worlds Interpretation tells us this about reality - that the version where you stopped watching is just as real as the one where you kept going. Both occupy their own version of the fourth dimension, but both are inaccessible to each other, so it's not like we should feel crowded by those other parallel universe versions of our reality. :)
And yes,with the visual analogy we're using here, a different paper would be a universe with different physical laws.

let me see if i can't take a stab at what the seventh dimension is based on what you have said in the videos up to this point. The seventh dimension, being at right angles to all possible universes that arise from the set of conditions created by "our" big bang, would include one point that encompasses all possibilities, times, and space states of "our" universe. Any other point outside this point would be universes with other starting conditions based on "their" big bangs, which is 8th right?

I assume it costs money to have Talking Dog Studios make those animations etc.
Trancecend 2 months ago
@Trancecend Since I own Talking Dog and do the animations myself in my spare time, the largest cost for making these is just my time. I do have some of my staff help on some aspects of these projects when they're not busy with film, television, or AR projects (for instance Willem Schonken recorded and edited my voice for this and the next few animations) but again, as the owner of Talking Dog ultimately I pay the associated costs.
Why do I do it? Because I love these ideas. :)

Its cool to think that other possible universes might've had different amounts of matter. Maybe a different speed of light or gravity acceleration? Its like we are in a prism representing all possibility and we are riding the beams of light being separated in the colors that represent our destinies. And we're the observers that can look ahead and increase survival. We're made of the light representing our chemical bodies. I wonder if things/beings can be formed in the higher dimensions.

If we could tunnel from one "paper" to another, wouldn't that just have the exact same physical constants as the one you just came from? Since we probably are in the "middle" of an infinite ocean of exact copies and only if we tunneled that infinite distance we would get to a "paper" with different initial conditions.

@Kalohux
practically, 10th dimension doesn't exist, since it is just the full set of all systems.
So in a sense, 10th dimension is God and anything lesser (which is required to interact with stuff) would just be local observational entities, which I actually doubt would be able to exist in the space between the "papers".
In the end, it is nice to be confined in this bubble where events can take place and life can occur.

rx327prime 3 months ago
um, since you are three dimensional, as soon as you accept the second dimension in your example you have six dimensions because you are having "you" as a zero dimensional entity, and as a 3D entity, the two dimensions on the paper are 2x3 = 6D.
pyrrho314 3 months ago
@pyrrho314
3 dimensions + 2 dimensions = 5 dimensions
Don't multiply, there are 3 spaces of 3 dimensions each (Universe, Multiverse and Omniverse), if you multiply "3x3x3 = 27" that would be quite wrong.
melis256 3 months ago
@melis256 : you are wrong. dimension multiply. That's why the area of a square being 4, the volume of a cube with the same side length is that TIMES the height, which is the new dimension. Math mysticism is nice but just study more math.
pyrrho314 3 months ago
@pyrrho314
Well, the area of a square is not always 4 is it ;)
Depends on how long the sides are and what unit you are using.
Same with a cube, same with time, same with the degrees of freedom in the 5th and 6th dimension.
Dimensions are not the same as the units they are measured in and does therefore not multiply.
1D, that's one dimension, 2D, that's another dimension, 3D
So 1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1 = 10 [nD; 0≤n≤10]

Hey Rob, When it comes to faith, How sure are you that there are multiple dimensions and universes? Would you say its 100% exactly true and the only way that makes sense?
effdatitsnick 3 months ago 2
@effdatitsnick I love this quote from physicist Raphael Bousso: "This may seem laughable, but without the multiverse our finest theories predict that empty space should contain about 10 to the power of 123 times more energy than it actually does. This has been called the “worst prediction in the history of science” and the “mother of all physics problems.”
So yes, I feel it's 100% true that there is a multiverse of other universes, accessible via extra dimensions.
Thanks!

WormulonDCP 3 months ago
So by traveling in the fourth dimension, we're also traveling in the fifth dimension automatically, but in a straight line along the fourth axis. A universe without life is like this by default. To deviate from that and change direction in the fifth requires... choice? consciousness? free will? quantum brain effects? How far from self-reproducing chemistry along the evolution of life before a being can choose to observe alternate paths in the fifth dimension?
jasonleeholm 3 months ago
@jasonleeholm I'm with Schrodinger on this one - he said life is "a unique process which creates pockets of negative entropy". Not alive equals "going along for the ride" in the fourth dimension, so to speak. So I would say _any_ thing that's alive is engaged with this selection process at the fifth dimension, and that would be true all the way back to the most primitive primordial spark of life that started it all way back when.
Thanks for writing!

@satisfried I've been a fan of Frank Zappa since 1968, when I played my copy of We're Only In It For the Money more times than I can count. :) I think our voices have a similar timbre at times, so that's part of it as well. But I don't think I was trying to emulate any particular tune when I wrote this one, I just wrote what seemed right for the lyrics.
