I really hate that show, but along those lines I have sometimes wondered if when we are studying theoretical mathematics, are we actually discovering principals about how the universe works, or are we really mapping principals of how the brain processes information without realizing it.
- esarbe 5y agoWe're all just the universe wondering about how it can perceive itself.
- sdwr 5y agoLove it, I've had the same thought.
- foxhop 5y agoI love the map analogy, humans have been making those for a long time too. I've always enjoyed maps and mazes and also why I took to mathematics at a young age because it does seem like once you learn basic algorithms you can feel around a problem with numbers and then just get a sense because you know the "map" like the back of your hand. Teaches the next generation, universal way to communicate with other humans at the same level of abstraction, etc.
