| Agreed The crux of it is obvious: math is true from the perspective of a human consciousness It’s defined after cognitive measure. I won’t say it’s whittled down. I would say ... it’s sight, sound, touch... attempt at quantifying our qualified experience All the best math nerds were often deeply gifted and practiced forms of human art: poetry, music, sculpture... and many artists good at math, Brian May, for one example IMO to get math one needs to build all those abilities It’s really the people I know that don’t do that see math as a boring toolbox of rules and points Not saying you’re not that Math is not a thing like a rock because our ability to behave like more than a rock gave us the ability to define math. It has to be more than a simple this or that |
