Lindaru Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 With the creation of places like the Metaverse and Spatial.io, it is possible to be anywhere and other-where within an instant, hyper jumping back and forth simultaneously while your physical self remains right where you are. Do you exist simultaneously in more than one place at a time? To get even more complicated, say you are in the metaverse and you happen to fall asleep. Now you are in a virtual space, a physical space and most likely a dream space. Can you be all of those "you" at the same time? Is one more real than the other or do they exist in over-lap in real time/space? Dang. I think I am going to get lunch. I may even have to take a nap and let my brain circuits recover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

o0Ampy0o Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 At least regarding perception, we live in a dichotomous world. To have any thing there must be something that is not that thing. You cannot be everywhere without the option of being nowhere. Can you be nowhere? Technically once you are dead you no longer exist as far as verifiable perception is concerned. Can you be everywhere? If you could be everywhere could there even be a “you” and if so what would you be and what would distinguish you from everything else? We use many words and phrases as figures of speech. They are frequently mistaken to suggest literal possibilities. Much of what we say is not well thought out. If you could truly comprehend being everywhere you would no longer be bound by the confines of limits therefore you would no longer be you. You would be all and everything and nothing simultaneously except you would also be outside the bounds of time so you would be infinite and eternal as though you always have been and always will be. IOW some concepts cannot be perceived accurately. You gain a different perspective of a concept observing it from outside. Once inside you become some concepts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjd Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 So far, I see no problem. You are present everywhere in the quantum field. Your wave function keeps collapsing to where you perceive yourself to be. Collapse happens when you are being observed. Tell people to stop looking at you.

It'll be the first movie of the year for me. Its a slow slog at first, but once it kicks into gear, it becomes great fun. It has a few elements that feel vaguely familiar, but overall, its not quite like anything else I've seen. The framing of the story is increasingly creative. Maybe its just that it feels understandably Oriental while still being a surreal roller coaster that's different from the usual neon American blaring in fantasy flicks. Its a fine piece of cinema that feels like a full meal. Quote "Let there be dancing in the streets, drinking in the saloons and necking in the parlors!
