During the early 20th century and before, reality was assumed by the mainstream to be everything you can see, smell, touch, and hear. The discovery of the electron, radio, and x-rays turned that assumption around. By 1930 it was clear that 99.9% of reality is not contactable or apprehendable by the human senses, thus making us blind voyagers in an invisible world that may touch us without our knowledge. Society carries on relying on the old assumptions, holding us bound, looking away from the terrifying new gateway beyond its reach. But looking away won't banish the vast naked spectrum that engulfs us in its many colored hands.

  • I'm looking for the audio of the quote..... "Until the 20th century, reality was everything humans could touch, smell, see, and hear. Since the initial publication of the charted electromagnetic spectrum, humans have learned that what they can touch, smell, see, and hear is less than one millionth of reality."

    who can help me??

  • @FLyAgaric421

    All the audio we used was from a recording called "Tunings"

    If you find a clean copy of it let me know.

    It's an excellent record.

  • This video is real, i have dream t about something related to this once.

  • your video description alone speaks volumes - "making us blind voyagers in an invisible world that may touch us without our knowledge"

  • cool video and music y'alls - where did you guys get all the footage for this stuff?

    I think people are very comfortable believing that reality is invisible and hidden, though. have you ever talked to an evangelical christian? and most secular peeps believe in vitamins, carcinogens, bacteria, and all kinds of true things that can't be seen.

    in fact, I'm not sure there's anything else most people really believe in besides what they can't see...

    dig the piece - thanks for sharing -

  • i really like this one. in fact watched it 3 times . kangreja

    99.9 percent of reality is apprehensable by he human senses. My .1percent knows this is a great piece of art. .
