What you see is not things, but light bouncing off of things. What you see is actually the colliding of an infinite myriad of time dimensions coalescing at your observer-perspective all at once, since light has a maximum speed in this universe and therefore is traveling at ever-so-slightly different distances as it bounces off of objects to reach your eyes.
And there are no things, only patterns and relationships that give the illusion of things.
Trip to that.
Once upon a time there were three astronomers from different parts of the world. One astronomer studied the light of the cosmos directly, through a refracting telescope. This was too harsh for the other two astronomers, who developed other methods.
The second astronomer studied light indirectly, through a reflecting telescope. The larger aperture allowed much more diffused light to shine through.
The third astronomer developed crystals to study the spectral properties of visible light and the electro-magnetic spectrum beyond. It allowed them to see a broad perspective from many simultaneous angles.
The first astronomer could not understand the images of the other two telescopes without experiencing them firsthand. The second astronomer could not understand the images of the third telescope without experiencing them firsthand.
