being a relentlessly physical person, what interests me most is the
feeling you get when you contemplate types...I mean, is it a bloodless
sort of intellectual interest, or is there something there that grabs
you and quickens the pulse, improves the thought-feeling interface?
anyway, your second question is even better - is there fun to be had
in timeless dimensions? Sounds like you may still be grooving on your
"space" question.
I actually ran with that question a little further, thinking about how
you could solve time/space so that time dropped out of the equation,
in a touchy-feely liberal arts type of way of course:
time really is a measurement of movement, right?
So that we talk about time-frames, and then we can say that within
that frame, and concerning the particular movements under
consideration, it's possible to consider an entire sheaf of movement
and say what is happening/has happened/will happen...
which in a liberal arts way is maybe like naming a literary movement
(aha - "movement") say postmodernism...time hasn't really dropped out
though, has it, although it's been somewhat delineated... and in fact
I speaking of time must leave for work shortly, but these
considerations are pretty psychedelic in and of themselves
wishing you benevolent cosmic co-operation with your psychedelic projects!
