Tessa Preferred The Flatlands



"Humans measure distance mainly on a plane that’s roughly level with their eyes. Like a broken odometer, our place and grid cells simply don’t “clock” vertical movement. As far as those cells are concerned, we might as well be living in Flatland."

Tangerine noticed it first, but your new series totally reminds me of my Lefties!

Thanks Connectome it was indeed inspiring and interesting.

I come from a very flat land which I prefer to mountains any day of the week.
