Motion Apprehension:
“Surrounded macrocosmically by and consisting microcosmically of a Universe of omnimotion: orbital, axial, convergent-divergent, inside-outing, twisting, and precessing-- evolutionary transformations transpiring at an astronomical variety of speeds and frequencies of repetitive cycle rates, humanity has a very limited range of motion apprehending capability. Man cannot see his own spaceship’s motion, nor the motion of any of the celestial entities, nor any of the atom’s component motions. He cannot even see the big hands of the clock move, nor see the tree grow. Likewise the span of his sensorial tuning-in capability, within the vast ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum of physical realities, is minuscule. Only through detection of the generalized principles operative within the special-case experiences, which his sequence of afterimage senses do apprehend, is man able to devise step-up and step-down frequency and velocity transforming instruments which can convert the nondirectly-tunable frequencies into his sense-tunable range, and thus is man able to learn about the invisible behaviors of his universal relationships.”
