Multisense Realism

Flipping Nilipsism into Solipsism

MW: The world we humans create is fiction, the reality is what existed pre-human and will exist post-human and I suspect forever unknowable. Our existence is all froth.

S33: That’s only because you are viewing the universe from the perspective of an omniscient, immortal voyeur. The contrary view holds that the universe which is not experienced by humans can never exist for humans, so that all but our existence is irrelevant. It’s a fractal. All that you can ever experience is that part of the universe which relates to some aspect of your experience of it. There can never be any other universe for you, you will never experience a universe in which you are not present experiencing it, so there can be no difference between your own life and eternity, except in your imagination. Everything outside of your life is fiction, relative to your frame of reference.

Interlipsism: A View From Everywhere

The word interlipse came to me in between sleeping and waking (hypnopompic), and it appears to have no established meaning. Etymologically, ellipse and ellipsis get their meaning from ‘a falling short’. I use the word elliptical to describe the soft-boundary nature of subjects/concepts/words, as compared to the relatively discrete boundaries of objective phenomena. In this context the word interliptical could be used to define this effect more specifically. As the number of words in a language grows, the greater the potential of those words is to be more precisely defined, and more broadly associated figuratively as well.

I’m not even sure if that’s true, but it seems like it could be. The interliptical quality is the degree to which meaning develops both elliptically (metaphorically) and semphorically (digitally) at the same time. Aesthetically it reminds me of how developer solution chemically teases out clarity and contrast from the entropy of a raw photographic exposure. Instead of assuming that words originate as collections of separate sounds, or an image is built sequentially from pixels, both the irreducible gestalt and the elementary particle are aesthetic perspectives that precipitate from the interlipse. Something like a fractal of lensing lenses.
