Part 1 of Episode 8 is the audio version of Chapter VII of Tertium Organum by P.D. Ouspensky read by Alice Flanagan.

Ouspensky discusses how mathematics does not sense dimensions and proposes that this is possibly because dimensions don’t exist as ‘separate units’ per se because if they did, mathematics would be able to define this. This chapter is the last chapter where Ouspensky uses his analogies to describe the experiences of different dimensions and explores the concepts of Euclidian and Non-Euclidean geometry to further explain our concepts of dimensionality. However he comes back to the original hypothesis which proposes that our experience of the three-dimensional world is confined to our receptive apparatus, to our psyche. This is a short chapter but ends spectacularly with the only ‘Ouspensky rant’ to be found in the book where he tears down the value of analogy to finding the complete answer to the enigmas of the world noting that analogy has been useful to getting us thus far on the journey but now we must continue on a different path.

To listen to the panel discussion of this chapter, see Part 2 of this episode.
