The Golden Sphere of Possibility

[LHX]

maps
occult studies
physics
revolving door

there are a lot of unique qualities to this 'organization' and the perspectives that come out of it

this place is like 'build-your-own-belief-system', and then launch it to see how far it goes


what has been developed here is pretty durable
could prolly stand up to apocalypse


as far as names go:

who knows

but its prolly best to ditch the BIP moniker soon

nothing but trouble at this point

[LHX]

Basically, we should work with the BIP, Machine,Ñ¢, System¬Æ, CoN, et al until someone has a breakthrough that changes our perceptions.  We can try to rephrase, re-parcel the concept & see what becomes of it, such as:

The Property Line

The End of our Fingertips

The Goldfish Bowl

The Frying Pan and the Fire


etc.  Each of these new imaginings will lead to new ways of looking at the metaphor.

agreed

Hell, I stole my personal concept of the BIP from RAW's "reality grid" idea, so it's not like we're working with brand new material here.

[LHX]

grid is a good word

ambiguous

maybe we can run with that




satellite is a good word

base is a good word

mothership is a good word

sorry Abstract Container was a programming-related joke

uhm

Phase Space Constraints

no sorry

maybe something with Horizon .. event horizon

the term "desert of the real" was already coined by someone else, but may be recycled, too negative perhaps

grid horizon? too scifi-ey?

is there a name for the white bits on a map? or the stuff in RTS games that's called "fog of war" ?

also, LHX nothing but trouble? we at least need a short name to refer to it ourselves easily. might be hard to change from BIP now .. but maybe, why not, let's just go ahead and pick a new one.

fog is good too

BIP to us is not the same as BIP when it is seen for the first time


lol @ 'join the Black Iron Prison'


of course we will refer to it as BIP - prolly for a long time to come

"the shit that's happening."

lmao

that aint awkward or nothin

The sphere is a metaphor I've used from time to time to explain 3-4 dimensional perceptual limitations. When extending the famous 'flatland' metaphor from 3d- 4(+)d space. You kinda touched on it with the confusion over being inside and outside the sphere.

My angle is this: If you've only ever been inside the sphere you have absolutely no frame of reference to visualise a sphere from the outside. Therefore it's impossible to make the perceptual leap without actually leaving it. I'm sure I posted one of my short essays a while back but if memory serves you said you hadn't had time to look at it... hang on ...

prolly got forgotten about as threads steamrollered on. I'm mentioning this because I think there's some stuff in there that could be useful with BIP Jailbreak stage.

"the shit that's happening."

i thought shit that is "happenin" was called "shizzle" ?
