Dream Guide

There is still boundless darkness, but this is no longer nothingness, but real darkness. It is real darkness that replaces the darkness of nothingness.

Aoki's consciousness is floating in the darkness like a ghost, without form or logic, but he has feelings and can feel many strange things, which are complicated and complicated, just like the macro information of the universe, which is everywhere, but he can't grasp it. Can't live.

Then, countless densely packed bright spots appeared in the darkness, which were brighter than the stars in the night sky. Yet you can't tell how far it is. It seems to be far away from you, but also seems to be within your reach, and even Aoki feels that those bright spots are overlapping with his own.

Aoki is very sure that this is no longer at the zero-dimensional point, this is entering another world. If this is the dream of LAN, then what is the composition of this world?

Of course, the LAN has no concept of human beings, and its memory is not human memory, so Aoki is also incorporeal at the moment. As an intruding consciousness, his form depends on the memory of the dreamer, or he uses his powerful mental power to interfere with the dreamer and let himself show his form.

However, at this moment, Aoki felt a strange spiritual power, but did not feel the existence of the dreamer's subjective consciousness. I don’t know where this spiritual power comes from. It seems that it has no origin, it is this strange space itself. He is floating in this strange space, or it is not called floating, because the word "floating" means "floating", which is a state formed by the buoyancy of the air. Aoki's consciousness has not been affected by any force, and will not appear "floating" due to this.

The ubiquitous bright spots were shaking constantly. Aoki felt that these bright spots contained a lot of information, but Aoki was very sure that the bright spots in front of him were not luminous bodies, but just a restored cognition of consciousness. The so-called reduction of cognition is to reduce something that cannot be understood and described into something that one can understand and describe in language.

For example, in dreams, there is actually no time, but we usually feel the passage of time. This is a kind of reductive cognition. In fact, many things in dreams overlap, just like the universe rolled up on a timeline. We can understand this world subconsciously, but our conscious mind cannot understand it, and words cannot describe it, so when we wake up from the dream Finally, or at the moment of exiting the dream, consciousness will expand this timeline, thus forming a dream that we can understand and describe. Therefore, no matter how long the dream has passed, the dreamer is often only in the real world for a moment.

Aoki's consciousness and those bright spots constantly collide, merge and separate, like traveling through a kaleidoscope.

A bright spot suddenly unfolded and turned into a vast blue ocean. There is a flag in the sea, with four-color squares on the flag, fluttering in the sea breeze. The flagpole is horizontal, slowly changing color, and there is a row of letters above the flagpole.

Aoki felt that this flag was very familiar, and suddenly remembered, isn't this the screen of a windows startup interface?

He immediately understood that the bright spot just now was an information source containing the painting. When his consciousness received the complete information of this information source, the information source would be expanded in dimensions into a form that he could understand.

The boundless blue sea suddenly enveloped his body. However, he could no longer see the existence of the sea at this time. The flag and the letters of windows were also gone. He could only see floating dots one by one around him. And lines connected by floating points. When he shuttled between floating points and lines, the shadows produced by the lines allowed him to see pieces of plane graphics of various shapes.

Aoki knew that he had now entered the two-dimensional world where the information source on the boot interface had been expanded. Our three-dimensional world is a three-dimensional world composed of points, lines, and surfaces. The light and shade formed by light allow us to form a three-dimensional cognition visually. This is a world composed of points and lines. The floating points and lines form an effect similar to light and shadow in the process of shifting and shifting. You can see flat things in your consciousness.

Aoki understood that this is a multi-dimensional world where information sources can be expanded in any dimension, and then consciousness will convert the expanded information into something that can be understood.

He quickly broke away from the two-dimensional world composed of the startup screen, and his eyes turned into a kaleidoscope world again. He moves through the kaleidoscope looking for sources of information to unfold.

When the information source is unfolded, some of it can be understood by him, some cannot be understood, some can be described in words, and some cannot be described in words. Some are one-dimensional, some are two-dimensional, some are three-dimensional, and some are indescribably high dimensions.

For example, there is an information source that overlaps and becomes densely packed after being unfolded, like a three-dimensional city. When Aoki first saw this, the first thing he thought of was a mountain city with a strange topography of streets on top of buildings and streets on the ground floor. However, in this three-dimensional city, no matter where you start, you can directly reach any other location. Just like when you are sitting at home, you can see the actors performing in the opera house through the wall of the living room, and you can reach out and pick up a book from the library to read. This incredible feeling of space cannot be described in words.

Aoki is now very sure that the professor's guess is correct. The LAN does have consciousness, and machine consciousness can also dream. Now, he is in this guy's dream. These messy information sources are the data stored on the server. I don't know if it is all of it, or just a part of the memory like a person's dream.

The most critical question now is, where is this conscious subject?

Aoki has been looking. He has to find it to know what Internet consciousness is and whether it is the same as human consciousness.

At this moment, a voice came into his ears. To be precise, it was a consciousness communicating with him. This communication was not verbal, and he had no ears at the moment. But now we can only use the method of restoring cognition. To describe the content of Aoki’s communication at this moment.

"ghost!"

This is the first communication message Aoki receives, and it is not vague at all, it is a ghost.

"What did you say?" This was Aoki's question.

"I am a ghost." This is the consciousness saying, "Who are you?"

Aoki said: "I am a human being."

"Human?" the consciousness said, "Is this it?"

Aoki saw a point of light floating, and soon expanded in another dimension, becoming something that was difficult to describe, like a long wire covered with many twisted insects. This is visual cognition after restoration of human consciousness, rather than information cognition after the expansion of this information source. But Aoki understood the information from this information source. It was a word-like document with encyclopedia information about "people"——

Human, whose scientific name is Homo sapiens, means wise person, is a species of primate Homo. Mitochondrial DNA and fossils prove that it originated 5 million years ago...
