The jazz rock pioneer on being fast and loud, walking away from success, and why a musician is actually exploring the meaning ...

The sheer fact we can conceive of higher dimensions than four within our mind, within our mathematics, is a gift… It’s ...

Let’s be clear: at this point, aliens inhabiting any dimension are purely hypothetical, let alone the fourth dimension. But that fact hasn’t stopped scientists and philosophers from exploring ...

Or do we? String theorists believe our world encompasses more than three dimensions. Without experiential evidence, the mathematical theory of space and time as a fourth dimension has remained ...

POSSIBLY the question, What is the fourth dimension? may admit of an indefinite number of answers. I prefer, therefore, in proposing to consider Time as a fourth dimension of our existence ...

This is difficult to visualize, as we can only perceive the world around us as a three-dimensional space, and even more challenging to measure. An example of a four-dimensional object is the ...

This story starts in the fourth dimension. Or, more specifically, with a British mathematician who, in the late 1800s, was intrigued by the fourth dimension and how to teach disinterested children ...

Space and time are now woven into a coexisting fabric. That is to say, we truly live in a four-dimensional universe. Space and time alone cease to exist; only the union of those dimensions remains.

For decades mathematicians have searched for a specific pair of surfaces that can’t be transformed into each other in four-dimensional space. Now they’ve found them. In geometry and the closely ...
