Imagining the Tenth Dimension part 2 of 2

I thought this was particularly interesting and I always thought a 3rd dimensional creature couldn't visualize a higher dimensional outlook.

[Sawdring]

I don’t know if you have a ping list for this stuff or not, but you might find it interesting.

[Islander7]

I prefer the The Fifth Dimension - Aquarius (1969)

Thanks!

[Rio]

Great. Now I have a headache.

[Windflier]

How much government money do all these egghead academics get for sitting around imagining such things?

What a racket...

[DManA]

Got it. Went to the wabe and watched the slythy toves
gyre and gymbling.

This kind of science is critical to the government ability to do Quantitative Easing. The QE's have exhausted finite mathematics, so, by expanding them into additional dimensions, we can expand the use of the infinite.

LOL. You're probably right!

[The Cajun]

Lots of *Can't get there from here* stuff going on after the 4th dimension.............Just saying.

When physicist go wild :^)

[Only1choice____Freedom]

Ping for later.

I highly recommend that everyone read Edward Abbott's 1884 work, Flatland.

A thoroughly enjoyable and engaging read, this fictional novel obviously forms the basis for the video you posted.

[Maceman]

Here's the trailer for the animated Flatland: The Movie, based on the book by Edwin Abbott.

[Sawdring]

I am going to have to put that book on my list. Maybe 82 pages can alter my viewpoint on things.

[Sawdring]

I had to look that one up. It rang a bell but couldn’t put my finger on it. Jabberwocky!

[Moonman62]

The guy who did these videos is apparently a kook who is self promoting his books.

A person would be smart to stick with the egghead academics.

[SunkenCiv]

Thanks Sawdring.

There is a Sci Fi short story called (I think) The Jabberwocky. A scientist from the far far future carelessly transports some “toys” back to present day America. Some kids find them. Mess around with them. Eventually “figure it out”. and disappear into some higher dimension space as their father watches in horror.

At the end we find out the scientist also transported some toys back to a girl named Alice. Alice never “figures it out” but it does make her seriously weird. Lewis Carrol writes down some of her weirdness.

There has long been concern in the physics community of whole careers falling apart once
a more ¨sophisticated¨ Theory Of Everything comes into vogue.
