shadows in the dimensions

[monaroman]

i was just wondering- if a trionian has a 2d shadow, and a dionian has a 1d shadow, and a monian doesn't have a shadow, does that mean tetronian has a 3d shadow?

[Keiji]

yes.

[charl]

if that's correct, does it mean that i'm merely a shadow of a tetronian being?

[Keiji]

Huh, that's an interesting idea, but I doubt it.

Though, there's nothing stopping that being the case...

[monaroman]

no because shadows are black and arent solid

unless the rules of light and colours are some how different... i could thinking that what i thought was something i thought when it could actually be a tetronian thinking what im thinking because im a shadow

[papernuke]

I wonder what would have happened if you walked into the shadow of a tetronian. That would be scary to have a black thing come at you, or you walk into it, and everything just went black.

[monaroman]

you might be able to see all their insides, if they are shaded... that could be one advantage to having less dimensions!

[papernuke]

How, then would a 4D shadow be projected?
Our shadow is projected onto a 2D plane "floor," and same goes for 2D to 1D etc,
In that case would the 4D "floor" on which it it projected on be simply a 3D figure?
so it would be possible for the 4D shadow to be floating around?

[monaroman II]

no the shadow would be projected on a medium that a lower dimension being could understand

[kingmaz]

Does a tetronian only have a 3d shadow when the light source is 4d also?

[Keiji]

Yes, 3D light cannot possibly interact with 4D objects...

so would that kinda be anything like say if one of us were to stand under a light of any type, stand on a floor that consisted of multiple layers of...glass..or anything clear that would could see the shadow reflected on all layers? kinda giving us a slight sight into a 3d shadow? or am i just saying something that sounds like i know what i'm talking about but i don't really know what i'm talking about?
