A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

My hypothesis is if you found a way to send “sensory” data about points in the 4D universe to a brain, perhaps a very young brain, that brain could develop an intuition for 4D space and motion.

Brains are incredible, I bet it might work even with an adult, it would just take some getting used to.

Another thought I had (more of a weird experiment than a game) would be to feed the view from a 3d camera into a VR headset such that you can see all of it at once. Obviously it would be weird and everyone would look funny, but I bet if you stayed in long enough your brain would get used to it and it would start to look/feel normal
