This is a very good example of the greatest flaw of human language.
Besides these western examples shown here, the Chinese also have one: "A white horse is not a horse."
You see, the Chinese language treats the subject and a quality as two seperate items. "Horse" is one item, "white" is one item, and "white horse" is also one item.
Using variables:
a=a
b=b
ab=/=a
ab=/=b
There is no a+b, as there is in english.
Such is the folly of language.

The gap between perception and reality is wide because events are removed from one another.

why are these intellects and scientists so fascinated with words and concepts, thoughts and logic, analysis? None of these will answer any of those questions you pose, for you can't find the truth in the realm of abstractions, of illusions. Your handle on the truth is what enters your nervous system at this present moment; so stop thinking and start experiencing. You might then be able to know whether there are 11 dimensions, rather than endless postulations

I have always imagined the utility of maps coming partially from their compression of 3D space into a 2D surface, as well as their reduction in scale and detail. This video has given me access to the idea that maps which have more than 3 dimensions are also fantastically useful. Many thanks.

I wonder if any of your videos deal with Baudrillard

What is up with the background of this video? Where'd you get it?

@secular555 It's a generated background, one of the plug-ins that comes with Final Cut Pro.

Have you read Scott Mcloud's "Understanding Comics"? It's mindblowing work..

I agree! I've talked about Scott's work a few times in this vlog. And I'm also very pleased to report that Scott has had some very nice things to say about my project as well:
