My current understanding of the dimensions:
I think it’s pretty much in line with common thought through the first four, with personal interpretations thereafter. I’m sure my interpretations don’t line up with the mathematical mumbo-jumbo wizardry that goes on at CERN, but hey, I’m not even sure that place exists! {But I do have faith that it does.} Maybe those nerds at CERN would get on board with this if they let some psychologists, sociologists, anthropologists, or any other -gists in their secret lair. At any pace, this may be a really fun one to run with to make a whole new Internet-age cult religion out of.
Time - no (zero) physical dimensions, the pre-dimension, although in our reality it emerged simultaneously with 3d space.
Line - (1st dimension) the infinity that separates any two points.
Plane - (2nd dimension) the infinity between any 3 points (1 point not on the same line made by 1st two points)
Volume - (3rd dimension) the infinite space between any four or more points (1 point not on the same plane as first 3 points)
Each of these lower dimensions describe a mathematical concept that doesn't relate to lived-reality, as we never experience any one of them by itself, space without time nor time without space. As a side note, singularity (a single point in space or moment in time) is impossible. If a single point was all that existed, there would be nothing to which that singularity could be related, and no time through which the connection could be made - so there would actually be nothing. Existence/consciousness requires at least two (but probably 3) entities and time. This is complicated by the [risky] logic that follows, if the existence of one implies the existence of at least two, and when there are two, a line (made of infinite intermediary points) exists between them, then if there is one, there are infinite.
For this reason I do not include a point as the first dimension or pre-dimension. At best we could relate a point to a single thought (although, even in the mind, a thought may not ever really exist alone). It might make some sense though, to allow these dimensions to describe increasingly complex ideas; a line as a basic idea, a volume as a full thought, always with the understanding that in real-life even thought occurs over time. Also, it is either always the present or never the present; in either case such absolution would make the present meaningless.
Space+time - (4th dimension) a collection of similar volumes across time. A line of volumes. An ‘individual’ with a history and future.
Group - (5th dimension) a collection of space-time elements. A volume of individuals with the same history (and possibility for same future.)
Community- (6th dimension) a set of groups that overlap in the same universe, but only share partial histories/futures. Could be a species.
Universe - (7th dimension) a reconciliation of all histories across species. A volume of histories.
Story (8th dimensions) A line connecting alternate universes. Also called a theory.
Metaphysics- (9th dimension) A volume of universes. A story that combines some or all possible universes into one meta-verse.
(Note: So far, including time, there are 10 dimensions.)
Problem: Why are there so may space dimensions, and only one time dimension? I don’t know. For that simple reason, and to match up with M-Theory, I am going to throw in another time dimension, as an 11th dimension. This would have to be a different type of time that is experienced only by going between the dimensions that are higher than the 4th (space+time). Just to make everything formally clean, I will put this time dimension at the end, after Metaphysics, as a post-dimension, and call it Consciousness, or meta-time. Just as time allows connections points across space, consciousness allows connections across space+times.
Another nice way to get this to line up is to pair the physical dimensions with (extended) biological classification: Species =1st, Genus=2nd, Family=3rd,Order=4th, Class=5th, Phylum =6th, Kingdom=7th, Domain=8th, Life=9th. With the 2 time dimensions as the glues holding them together/ordered. This rigid formation works well for positivists.
I would actually argue that the actual name/analogy that would match to each dimension would always be relative to the current state of consciousness. At some consciousness a space+time unit (4th dimensional entity) may be a person, his/her finger, or a skin cell on said finger; it could be a tree or a fish or anything. This means all physical expressions shift [are reliant on] consciousness. This lines up with the enigma in particle physics that seems to have the location of a particle determined by it being observed. [Google/youtube "quantum enigma" or "Schroedinger's cat"]
