Imagining the Tenth Dimension - Rob Bryanton [With English Sub]

so much to digest at once...

10th dimension would be like DC comics Elseworlds books, or Marvels What IF? series.

This I can totally understand. Awesome.

A Flatlander eating needn't fall apart into two pieces. Instead of complete line of a digestive track, we could imagine an apple meets his lips, which then envelopes the apple. Now the apple is fully enclosed, and the location where the apple touches his lips opens, and the outwardly extended section of lip, reforms into lips.

Author and physicist, Brian Greene, uses the analogy of a doughnut and a coffee cup, as actually being the same shape.
Reference: The Elegant Universe

I use the analogy of a stage. If we are sitting in the audience, we know there is a flat curtain in the back of the stage, and at either end, is a curtain panel. As the actor enters/exits stage, he passes between a panel, and the back curtain. Depending upon our view, an optical illusion takes place. All the curtains appear to be a single, solid curtain, and the actor appears to us to be popping in and out of the higher dimensions, in the middle of what appears to be a solid curtain.

I will never look at the reality like the way I used to look at it after watching this.

the strabge thing about this theory is the fact that if this theory is correct another you is burning alive of being crushed beneath an elevator...or youre a single atom with no brain. or maybe another you doesnt even exist.

So be happy you're you! Disney could have a field day of feel good messages with this.

Although I know the ant on a newspaper thing is only an analogy it seems to present a problem to me and a massive hole in the entire theory:

The ant on the newspaper is not a flatlander and the newspaper isn't entirely flat either. This much is obvious. But you can't talk about folding dimensions through other dimensions on the premise that we are already folding 2dimensional objects through the third dimension. Because we have never done this - absolutely everything in our world has depth.

You're right, but still it would happen if done.

whats really fucked about this
is i realized this all by myself
while on lsd...
amazing
