A community to discuss Cosmic Horror in it's many forms; books, films, comics, art, TV, music, RPGs, video games etc.
"cosmic horror... is a subgenre of horror fiction and weird fiction that emphasizes the horror of the unknowable and incomprehensible more than gore or other elements of shock... themes of cosmic dread, forbidden and dangerous knowledge, madness, non-human influences on humanity, religion and superstition, fate and inevitability, and the risks associated with scientific discoveries... the sense that ordinary life is a thin shell over a reality that is so alien and abstract in comparison that merely contemplating it would damage the sanity of the ordinary person, insignificance and powerlessness at the cosmic scale..."

What...? you literally cannot see the bottom of the car. It's a 3d object. You cannot see all sides of the 3d object. You can only see up down left and right.
Our eyes can also see forwards and backwards so we can perceive 3d I believe, and then 4 d one present moment at a time.
But, I’m saying it is possible even with something like sonar to make a map of a thing that is on the other side of something else. That’s sound waves but we know that the light information is there to make a map similarly using light, and if we could see that information in real life, we might be able to perceive from the photons captured in this image to have an understanding of what’s under the car
Yea see what you just said doesn't make sense. Our eyes have depth perception based on the shadows of the 2d images shown... We don't have some kind of magical infrared sighting.
Am I being trolled right now?
lol, nah, I’m just saying there is more information available than what we can process with our eyes in the world around us….
Sure! Totally agree. But if you take a human, naked in a vacuum. They don't have the equipment to do any of that lol.
