This is the transcript of the talk I heard that told me about Blue Brain:
"It's called the Blue Brain project in Switzerland. They have combined many different types of technologies and what they have done is they have essentially created a type of MRI that can scan the entire brain. All of the intricate structures of the brain itself and what they have discovered is that some of us and have in our brains fourth, fifth, sixth dimensional structures already. There are other people that have seven, eight, nine dimensional structures in their brain. You're a third density physicality and yet in your brain you have multiple dimensional structures!"
I always come back to the book https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatland https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatland and try and grok that hey, maybe dark matter we observe here in 3d is just stuff from these weird other directions a flatlander wouldn't understand.
- zasdffaa 4y agoI'll bet if this was an accurate quote, what was being said is technically correct but far less mind-blowing than as it was presented.
- kahrl 4y agoWhat the what? You don't have to believe in the multiverse because the dimensions they are referring to are not physical dimensions. They are mathematically orthogonal spaces upon which brain structures operate.
- canadiantim 4y agoAny chance you have any links to the talk you heard with the above transcript? Or any other links for further information? Really interesting quote, would love to know more. Thank you.

- andrewfromx 4y agooh sure https://youtu.be/b4cGFVjtq-M?t=361 https://youtu.be/b4cGFVjtq-M?t=361 at the 6:00 mark. Fair warning everyone before you downvote, it's Alex Collier. Just take everything he's saying as satire if that helps.
- canadiantim 4y agoAwesome, thanks! Appreciate you sharing the link despite the almost certain downvotes you'll get. Never heard of Alex Collier before. If I may, as a thanks I'd pass along the author Samael Aun Weor which maybe you find some resonance with. Again to anyone else reading take everything he says as satire if that helps.
- achr2 4y agoThey are not referring to the same kind of physical (or even Euclidean) dimensions you are inferring. They are talking about connectivity and vectors.

- whimsicalism 4y agoIt's interesting how physics lends itself to lay misunderstandings (like the parent comment) more than any other field of study, ie. chemistry.
- alar44 4y agoYou are completely misunderstanding. Multiple topological dimensions, not spatial, and this isn't surprising at all.
