Perceiving dimensions 1 through 10
August 19th, 2009
Possibly somewhat off topic here, but this short animation which summarizes chapter one of the book Imagining the Tenth Dimension by Rob Bryanton is a great exercise in perception. Bryanton narrates your journey from a single point in the first dimension up through all possible infinities and beyond and ends up giving you a brief moment of zen as you actually think you might get what string theory is all about. A great ride through a roller coaster of a thought experiment.
