Imagine the tenth dimension

The full concept of dimensions is an area many of us run into during our late years of school and for the most part of us there it also ends. For people interested in physics dimensions is a crucial element though to understand our everyday happenings and doings. The dimensions is like the jester in a deck of cards, something we can pull out when nothing else seem to work out. The jester joins the game and bring with it logic which we can use to solve problems otherwise unsolved.

A while ago I ran into the book “Imagining the Tenth Dimension” by Rob Bryanton. Or more truthfully I ran into the website about the book where the concepts are visualized. It has become something of a mantra for me for every time I feel that I think to understand the world around us (or when Hybris kicks in as it does now and then) I use this visualization to get my feet back down to earth. Even though I’ve watched it multiple times not, I still get fascinated by it.

So I challenge you, look at the movie and really focus on understanding what is explained. Try to not think to hard though, when I look at it sometimes my brain hurts a bit.
