#433 โ€“ Sara Walker: Physics of Life, Time, Complexity, and Aliens

It's hard to use words to visualize what's in minds. I have such a hard time with this sometimes. Actually, I was thinking in the way over here. I was like, you know, you have pictures in your brain, and then they're hard to put into words. But I realized I always say I have a visual, but it's not actually I have a visual. It's I have a feeling.

Because oftentimes I cannot actually draw a picture in my mind. for the things that I say, but sometimes they go through a picture before they get to words. But I like experimenting with words because I think they help paint pictures.

Yeah, I think so. And I think this is one of the reasons that we have such an ability to abstract as humans because we are so gigantic that like the space that we can go back into is really large. So like the more abstract you're going, like the deeper you're going in that space.

Yes. And this is why the definition of life cannot be the individual. It has to be these lineages because they're all connected. They're interwoven and they're exchanging parts all the time.

Yeah, I think life is very high dimensional. And in fact, I think you can be alive in some dimensions and not in others. Like if you could project all the causation that's in you, in some features of you, you know, very little causation is required and like very little history. And in some features, a lot is. So it's quite difficult to take this really high dimensional perspective.
