inter-dimensional television

one time i had a dream that i got hooked up to inter-dimensional television. it didn't just record in sound and color, but in infrared and gamma rays too. it made i.d. shows more flashy than our ordinary television, i guess. but it didn't matter, because even though my tv could broadcast at those wavelengths, i didn't have the proper sense organs to perceive the waves. it also broadcasted in extra-dimesions besides the ones covered by regular tv. not only did i get broadcasts in length, width, height, time, and cyber-space, i also got funky dimensions like the ones in particle mechanics. so there were shows with added boson symmetries and the 4 forces. there were shows with open tachyons but they were mainly for downloading on to fancy telephones.

so what if i didn't get to see all the extra-effects? bubbles said said that he could hear some of the lower and higher pitches that i couldn't and see some color shades that were invisble or faded to me. bubbles said they had extra music effects in the other pitches and textual messages that enhanced the shows in the deeper colors. they weren't subtitles, and they seemed like random verse, but if you thought about them, you could see a weirdly clever connection. bubbles said it's like watching a 3-d movie without the glasses. however, i think it would be more accurate to describe it as hearing the sound on regular tv, but not seeing the pictures. you can get a pretty good idea of what's going on, but you also know that you're definitely missing out on something.

my favorite show was a comedy that made fun of milieu control. it was on at 2 in the morning, so i had to stay up late to watch it. after a while, i got to know the stars of the other dimension. looking at their constellation of characters was sort of fascinating. you could tell who were the more skilled actors and who always played the same type of character due to limited ability or lousy connections. it was possible that although they looked and sounded the same, in the extra-dimensional stuff their performances might have been widely varied. they could have been sending off all kinds of communications that i didn't have the sense or intellect to percieve or comprehend. i didn't really have anyone to talk to about the shows, except my pet fish, bubbles. i tried to get people interested in interdimensional tv, but they didn't seem to care. it can be lonely when you've got an inter-dimensional mind in a 4-d world.

bubbles complained that they only got 59 channels in the other dimension.
