Make space into a grid; see what comes through the openings.
Analyze nature into waves; listen to the voice speaking them.
I feel that point-like particles in physics, each with one or more fields associated with it, are close in conception to people as 'particles' with 'feeling-fields.' The gravity field (Earth's) feels simple; human fields oscillate when I feel them. This table may help you separate differences.
concept | in stillness | in motion | with two |
---|---|---|---|
point | x, y, z | time, velocity | distance d |
particle | mass, charge | momentum, spin | force, energy |
field (physics) |
gravity, electric, magnetic fields |
'light cone' of what interactions are possible |
superposition (sum or difference) or interaction (such as electric and magnetic fields) |
object | a thing | a blur | functional synergy |
person | an image | a gesture | conversation (verbal or nonverbal) |
field (feeling) | a feeling | a sensation | interpenetration / difficult to describe interaction |
