Two speakers propose that consciousness struggles with dimensions beyond the familiar three, and that physical pain like a sore calf or torn ACL might reflect hidden geometric structures co-located with our bodies. They ask where oxygen really is to challenge what we think is real.
And when that topology breaks, it is a distinction that brains do not easily handle, right? Because we are used to looking around us and seeing concrete reality and thinking of it itself as reality instead of the first three minimal differences in the universe.
And if we do that, we recognize that those n+—
like, 4+ manifold dimensions are co-located with us, and we just don't know. So when you say, I feel it in my body, I say it's because your arm your head, your bad calf, uh, that big toe where you get your gout, that ACL you tore in high school when you were playing soccer. These are all connected to and manifold space. The things that we think of as thought and mythos and ideas. They are co-located in this universe with us. They are attached by geometry that you do not see. Does that seem so weird? Where the fuck do you think oxygen is?
