i was wondering, (this may be quite off topic) If anyone or even Einstein noted that his theorys were only based in 3 or 4 dimensions? Did any of his work implement extra dimensions or perhaps hint towards them?

[10thdim]

@WOWFPS Great question! I talk about this in Imagining the Fifth Dimension: watch?v=eN24Sv0qS1w

Einstein publicly endorsed the theory that our reality is defined at the fifth dimension way back in 1923. Which has always led me to ask, why has the subject of the existence of extra dimensions taken so long to be taught in our schools and endorsed by the mainstream?

Thanks for writing!

This was pretty much the hardest video to understand yet, due to the level of abstraction.

Good work though, I think.

@10thdim Concious observing is not considered an element in the experiment of double slit, experiments have shown that its the setup. Instruments with information unreadable still collapses the system, where instruments that(almost) instantly erases it does not. The concious observer doesnt appear to be relevant, only the extraction of specific information, which is interesting in itself

[crosbying]

@14sJakeB190 I am not denying its interesting, but the relevance of "Conciousness" has still not been addressed, what Wheeler did was placing observation devices in a different position, it still speaks nothing of conciousnes, only of the devices used for detection.

What physicist like Wheeler do in their assertion is taking it one step that you cannot take it, by concluding that the act of observation requires conciousness, but as I wrote in a previous reply, experiments have shown differently

[14sJakeB190]

@crosbying Well everyone claimed that it was the detector itself that was causing the collapse of the wave function. But in Wheeler's Delayed choice experiment it rules out the detector as what is "choosing" to collapse the wave function.

Here's a vid explaining it /watch?v=_Gd5FklL5OM&feature=r­elmfu

John Wheeler, the guy who made the experiment said, "No phenomenon is a real phenomenon until it is an observed phenomenon." and "consciousness shapes not only the present but the past as well."

[crosbying]

@14sJakeB190 Where does it suggest the relevance of coonciousness and not just the 2 different setups`?

[14sJakeB190]

@crosbying That's actually not what John Wheeler's Delayed choice experiment or the Quantum Eraser experiment suggests.

[CALIJOE13]

I think the theorists have driven their imaginations far beyond our understanding of reality...Our capacity of understanding is still primitive.

[olivebates]

... idk, you lost me here. Can anyone repeat what he said in english?

[protestifications]

@LightDarkNinja certainly an intresting question, i think that might be the case, we can only see in 3 dimensions. and can only navigate the fourth and fifth with assistence.
