I'm still gonna die yes. It wont matter. All we are is all the there is, and all there is is all we need.

YOU ARE GOD.
YOU ARE ETERNAL.

Please swallow that pill or you'll get it as a suppository.



Of a Bodhisattva I expect more, cheer up :buddhism:

Now we get to see if some of terence mckenna's ideas can become reality.

1) Having the virtual skin of a cuttlefish. (their skin changes in color and texture to display emotions) http://acp.eugraph.com/cephal/

2) Changing words into beheld objects. A little experiment in visual language.

It's funny
hallucinating used to be counter culture
now people play videogames and shoot each other

sex with strangers the same
and now people are figuring out ways to make it happen

but do the original taboo's get elevated? or do they become more obscure?

It is definitely quite the leap, assuming it is possible.

Last: could be symbolically represented easily enough. 3 dots with the last one highlighted.

Straight: a straight line :shrug:

impossible: maybe one of those 3d triangles escher built. https://d2t1xqejof9utc.cloudfront.net/screenshots/pics/2d29cb7b93141e6f696e8bd6109fa69c/medium.JPG

There's a possibility of representing at least some words this way. Maybe the level of sophistication could be built. Who knows. Could be a worthless but interesting idea.

The, impossible, just, cant, of, visualize. I like your idea about impossible, but it could easily be misinterpreted. Terrence has a few good ideas but quite a few of them are nothing but wild fantazisation. I think he even openly admits that in a few of his lectures.

I'll admit there's a high possibility I'm chasing my tail here.  Terence definitely says some things that make me shake my head in disbelief.

One thing that bugs me is: How would these visual representations be any better than merely projecting the written words into virtual space?

People with synesthesia do so constantly. In fact the letters on the screen are visualizations of the words they represent, and the words themselves are symbols for whatever raw feed of consciousness underlies words.

Maybe in just arguing for the sake of arguing but Id imagine that the visualizations would differ wildly between people for any given word. Especially for something as diffuse as impossible. Its open to creative interpretation rather then the concrete definition of written word. Something that effectively makes its communication in such a form useless.

I love it
