  • Sorry I missed all of your posts, biohack.me stopped sending me reply notifications for some reason. @Diethyl I have created a very simple 4d "world" in the Unity game engine. It is just a 4D grid of cells. The cells can either contain a block or be empty. You play as a block yourself and move through the grid, "feeling"…
  • @Proteus, Yes you would be able to jump "around" 3d space with 4d movement, but I don't want to treat the relation ship between the 3rd and 4th dimensions any different than the relationship between the 2nd and 3rd dimensions. All 4 dimensions exist equally, and a 3D space could exist among any 3 of the 4. @TheGreyKnight,…
  • Ignoring all of the 4D talk, you should understand how sensory substitution works. Here is a good document. Here's some excerpts: "The TVSS (« tactile vision substitution system») makes it possible to convert the image captured by a video camera into a "tactile image". In the standard version, the tactile image is produced…
  • I think that my title is misleading a lot of people. This has nothing to do with any ability to see 4 real world dimensions or have super human abilities in the real world. I don't think that a 4th spatial dimensions even exists in reality. A common statement people make when talking about a 4th spatial dimensions is that…
  • @McSTUFF I can't really walk you through the maze but I can describe the data I guess. A 3d maze is mathematically similar to a 2d maze, simply with an added dimension. I can describe a maze in 2d, and you would be able to imagine what the 3d version would look like, and get some grasp on what the 4d version would be. So…
  • If I have a computer program that simulates a 4d environment, then I do have 4 dimensional data. The data does not need to be represented in 3d, the 4d data can go directly to the brain through touch, vision, or sound. This idea is based on the concept of sensory substitution. I may have a overly optimistic view of how it…
  • Haven't read it but am familiar. I'm not trying to see a 4th dimension with my 3d eyeball, I'm trying to see (or feel) a 4 dimensional virtual world through a virtual 4 dimensional body. If a flatlander got fed all of the sensory information from a human 3d eyeball and all of the limbs and vestibular system, I think his…
  • Why not? I don't mean perceiving 4 dimensions in the real world if that's what you're answering. If the brains concept of 3d space is based on its experience of sensory input from 3d reality, then it might be able to build a concept of 4d space if given 4d sensory input.
