The Empathic Universe

[Gibsense]

Maybe you could try and summarise then? At the moment I am struggling to separate your input and AI's and how it relates to my post.

Your post (with a very physical/mechanical description) conveyed a sense of Wholeness; whatever the communication method. I was trying to think how wholeness could be a communication method where, in a 3D space, the speed of light is a limitation.
I came up with the simple idea of changing the nature of the space (as a reality we do not easily recognise), therefore, how might things work in 4D space?

In 4D space, things we take for granted (like you cannot pass through a wall and knots are secure) are different, so maybe (I do not know the answer—need to check) the speed of light is different or something. Then perhaps wholeness would be relevant in 4d .

Taking your description as an analogy, then maybe empathy could be relevant to a 3D person, although he still might not appreciate why.

Thanks, a key element to my analogy is the indirect component of it. The limitations of surface to surface communications and observations, wherever they are, become moot. The/a U/u niverse is your oyster!

Hours before a solar eclipse, spruce trees 'talk' to each other

"Basically, we are watching the famous 'wood wide web' in action!"

"This suggests the old trees hold ancient memories they can access. When events are coming up, the old trees "remember" and inform younger trees."

Where is the disconnect (cause and effect) for anything?

That would be one honking big hub! Also, that's a inefficient communication design, compared to the decentralized versatility of the Internet, where there is no center, no hub. Where would this extra energy come from? What would power the web and the hub? That hub, no matter what type of data/energy it was rerouting, would get very, very hot.
How does the Multiverse theory fit into your discussion? What if our "Universe" is simply one of an infinite number of universes? While I've watched some impressive demonstrations of two people with the ability to appear to read each other's minds, when a behavioral psychologist has a much more mundane and scientific explanation for shared experiences among twins especially; they have learned each others interactions and reactions to the environment, and are able to deduct the other's most likely response.
Likewise in your spherical universe, what you may be observing is a shared external, environmental cause and effect; not a subtle, ethereal network, that works with some equivalent invisible force. In your scenario, a message from Alaska to Vladivostok, instead of zipping straight West, would first travel from Alaska to the center of the Earth (hypothetically), and then travel all the way back up to the Arctic. That's seems terribly inefficient, as each communication has to travel many times the distance a straight line would require, every single communication passing through one point - what could possibly go wrong?
It appears to me as a weakened structure for a homogeneous universe. I have no "theories," and these are my reactions to your post; thank you!

It's a simple concept, a mind concept, bottom up,, rather than your top down, based on cause and effect - a thought, not a theory.
