Do we interact with each other or concepts of one another?

Definitely the concepts of each other. We create little daemon copies of what we believe the essence of the other to be and interact with that in our own little headspace. But thinking that way is lonely and sad so let's just pretend like we actually interact with each other.

On the other hand, it is not you who interacts with your simulacrum of me, it’s just your simulacrum of yourself. None of us actually exists.

It's all projections all the way down

If you get your fingers into the beam at any level, the higher levels break down, but not the lower ones. Lower levels have mostly (but not always) lower complexity. This fuels the hope that there is a definite ground truth with discoverable constraints.

The ground looks so far from way up here. So it's much easier (and more experience-rich) to imagine all the things that can be imagined from this distance.

People mostly don't even think about why one of the ways looks like it's going up.

I suspect people mostly don't even know there is more than one way
