What's "real" ? How do you define real? If you are talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, taste and see ... then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain. (Morpheus to Neo - The Matrix.)
I guess if we collectively agree that a real event we experience is describable in the same manner, then it's relatively real enough. But, "collectively" ... how do I define that the people constitute the collection are real? It could be splinters of my own mind.

I also questioned "what is 'real'" several times, but it ended up with a terrible headache.
ReplyDeleteWhat would "real" be if we could perceive things faster than we can, if we could see the jiggling atoms move as fast as transjakarta buses do?
