Thanks Alex,

Yea, will post the code soon(ish), and maybe a grasshopper version.

I’d love to see this transferred to some other languages, and I’m interested in learning some OpenGL myself

Great work Daniel, I first saw the youtube inversion and wondered about the 3D. Can you share the Rihnoscript for us that want to code in… say OPenGL?

Daniel, tks for the reply. As a matter of fact I have the book, but haven’t read it in it’s entirety. I submitted this idea as a result of having read a discription of a science fiction pseudochemical as described by Isaac Asimov called thiotimeline or something like that. This possessed those very properties i described but not as part of any cortex. But were reactively chained to extend this miniscule penetration into the future to up to 2 seconds. I’ll serch for the article or any reference to thiotimoline (or something like that) in google. -schriAlphi

schriAlphi – have you read Penrose’s The Emperor’s New Mind ? I think the ideas there are somewhat similar to what you describe.

Perhaps if the atomic structures of the material that forms some hypothetical newly evolved cortex of the brain – if this atomic material were to contain an axis lying in a fourth direction; let’s say a .0000006 seconds into the future and .0000005 seconds into the past, and with particles at these distances, then information of four space might be able to be processed into perceptual interpretation mediated through the 4-D neurons of this cortex. -scriAlphi
