0th Dimension: a point1st Dimension: a line2nd Dimension: a flat plane3rd Dimension: depth (start here.) 4th Dimension: one timeline from the past to the future.5th Dimension: the totality of this universe. all possible timelines from the same starting conditions and physical laws.6th Dimension: all universes with different starting conditions but sharing the same physical laws.7th Dimension: all possible universes with different starting conditions and physical laws laid out like books in a library. 8th Dimension: that library is now a plane.9th Dimension: now a line.10th Dimension: now a point. we've reached the end of reality.
4 and 5 are not the same thing?
>>17052478no because the 5th dimension introduces the idea of timelines which can branch off.
I remember this stupid video
>>17052493that video was inaccurate but higher dimensions up to the 10th really do exist.
>>17052493me too but I thought it was a website
>>17052476>7th Dimension: all possible universes with different starting conditions and physical laws laid out like books in a library.books in a library are laid out in 3 dimensions tho, or 2 if it's a single-shelf library like your pic, so this should be the 8th or 9th dimension
>>17052498I assume it's the video called "imagining the tenth dimension". from dimension 6 and onwards the narrator started making errors but the general concept is true regardless.
>>17052499no.the 4th dimension is like a library of past and future events on a single timeline. a being in this dimension could travel to any moment in history.the 5th dimension is a library of possible timelines in a universe with the same starting conditions and physical laws.the 6th is a library of universes with different starting conditions, but identical physical laws and the 7th has been explained previously. dimensions 8 and 9 are just steps taken on the way to representing all reality as a single point. they don't actually introduce anything new.
>>17052505Step from 6 to 7 is sus. It doesn't make sense to vary physical laws simultaneously along a single linear continuum, if you want "dimension" to maintain the same type of meaning as it has in the first three spatial ones.
>>17052508not my problem. try talking to an actual string theorist about it.
>>17052476A dimension is a plane if physical reality, from the 4th onwards they're not dimensions anymore
>>17052509string theorists think the other 7 dimensions are curled up into a tiny little ball which contradicts your definitions of 8th and 9th dimensions
>>17052521it's hard to word it clearly but the 6th dimension could probably be described as dealing with different data sets while following the same rulebook whereas the 7th compares different rulebooks entirely.
>>17052533No I get it anon, do you get what I'm saying about curly little dimensions contradicting the 8th and 9th ones in OP specifically?
>>17052536curled dimensions are outdated mathematical wankery. you can encode lower dimensions in higher dimensions (such as the earth's surface curving back on itself in the third dimension) but not the other way around.

Actually humans can't imagine past 6 dimensions.
Dimensions loop after the 3rd. The 4th dimension is actually one dimensional.1st dimension = line2nd dimension = plane3rd dimension = solid4th dimension = solid line (actually one dimensional)5th dimension = solid plane (actually two dimensional)6th dimension = back to a solid again (actually 3 dimensional)
