Rucker vs Einstein it all a illusion




The 4 dimension article talk about the fourth dimension and how we live in 3 dimensional world. Then it goes on to talk about how depending on if you are landbased the 3 dimesion point are not as easily as assessible as it is for a  fish or bird because of degree space. Then further on in the reading Rucker uses a hyper cube as illustrated expample of how the 4 dimension  opperates. The 4 dimension is basically like the 3 dimension except that it has extra dimension and extra degree of space.Then Ruckers uses the con and sphere as character to try to simplify the 4 dimension and these extra degree of space. The 4 dimension you are in all direction and at the still at the same time. The whole 4 dimension concept kinda reminds me of god, how he is everywhere and no where. Then there was a lot of confusion and skimming of the pages. Rucker talks about the universe, sound pretty cool now. Rucker's talks about how the universe has electron and positron and antimatter.Now I know about electron and positron but antimatter as fare as I know it is a part of physic. Antimatter is antiparticles of matter or something?So I guess that Rucker is not only defining the 4 dimension by angles and geometry and space but the man is going deep into the concept of dimensionality it self when speaking about the 4 dimension ? This reading is kinda good to read but it something that has to read a couple of times to fully understand. It can be done im going to reread later on and maybe it will click better then.

Please tell more about the 4 dimension in detail in class, I'm still stuck in the dark and I'm in every direction and here at the same time.
