The Tesseract is where all the left socks go when they disappear from the clothes dryer.

I wrote to Kip Thorne years ago with a question about rest mass. He wrote back very quickly — a nice letter that cleared up my confusion about it. His tone was kind even though I realize in hindsight that I was coming from a place of extreme ignorance. What a great guy!

[The-Urban-Goose]

Well, in interstellar the higher beings constructed this *representation* of a tesseract, so that the main character can actually understand it.
This representation wasn't meant to be a blanket "this is what it looks like" it was meant to be a tool to help the main character understand.

at the end of the day its a work of art, and its a beautiful and well made piece that ppl enjoy, which is all that rly matters

[Big_Tex]

Of course Kip Thorne is a fan, he was a paid consultant on the film, he was even in the credits as Executive Producer🤣

[Hoigwai]

I loved it, it was a great design for an unknown thing that made sense for the story.

[catalyst]

the also say in the movie that where he was was dimensionally modified for him to be able to understand it as a 3d being

[maartentoors]

One of the things I liked about that scene was that it projects the way the tesseract is moving 'around' him (1st person), he's not falling but the tesseract is moving around him with time being 'his' reality.
I implore everyone to see it that way, it'll be a 'better' representation.
Just really well done.

At the end of the day it's a 3d representation of a tesseract which is hard to do, same way a cube is hard to show in 3d, it just looks like a square, the 4d cubes where it moves around are the best representations I've seen because of the way it shows how the cubes are folded in and all connected at each side, in my opinion. But the interstellar tesseract definitely gives me the feel of the higher dimensional non linear aspect of the higher dimensions

And entering the tesseract, he reduced his possibility to the limits of the tesseract.

Great vid... I don't support these shorts, but i like you Joe

[joeybrown]

This is the perfect kind of content for shorts on your channel and I love it! Keep up the cool work, Joe!

If you believe in a soul. Just a soul not religion or god. But, the simple concept of a soul a spirit an energy. Then you believe 4th dimension is real.

[kblskables]

It's the fifth dimension where you can see all of the 4th at the same time.

[danlake]

Too many #shorts Joe. Cluttering up by subs page with these.

[mischake]

Could you explore some of the programs/games that deal with higher dimensions? It be a fascinating topic.

The tesseract was WAY more believable that Anne Hathaway's scientist character droning on about how love transcends understanding. She's a scientists that doesn't understand evolution. I get that she's not a biologist, but how is her view of love similar to that of a Christian Twitter bot channel?

[blueskyla]

That was one of the best parts of the movie. It made sense of so many oddities especially the bookshelf. I loved that movie.

[Parzval]

I like to imagine they built a tesseract in 4D just to film interstellar

[Stopinvadingmyhardware]

A tesseract is not a 4D cube. It’s a mathematical inquiry of a 4D space set within an Euclidean geometrical system.
