Sorry to switch the topic, but this evening I spent a delightful forty minutes with a friend, lost in conversation while walking through the rain in Paris.<\/p>\n
If you’re going to walk through the rain anywhere, I highly recommend Paris. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Going back to the question of four dimensions… If you were a two dimensional being in Flatland, and you really wanted to understand 3D, you would want the most high quality visualization you could get of that mysterious higher dimensional world.<\/p>\n
In that spirit, it seems to me that it would make sense to create the most vivid possible representation of our four dimensional object — even if it is impossible for such an object to exist in our world.<\/p>\n
However we choose to simulate this four dimensional object, our simulation should appear before us with the same sense of “presence” as a real object. And if we reach out our hand, we should be able to touch it.<\/p>\n
Sounds like a great opportunity to build a really good virtual reality experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
