I'm not sure. Anything no spatial I gues.

Have you ever had an idea that you think is an not an idea because you can't express it? The word "ambiance" sort of alludes to this. You can walk into a place and have a certain conceptual feeling that cannot be put into words for example. Sometimes a piece of music can illicit the same response that can't be captured or conveyed in language.

Very 'definitely.' Well, maybe not so "definately," but very objectively true nevertheless.

I suspect much of reality is missed because it can't be quantified by today's inadequate machines. (The old "if you can't measure it, it's not real" thing)
