Abstract

"The Dimensionality of Thought" proposes a philosophical restructuring of neurodiversity, moving beyond medical deficits or social critiques. It introduces a "Multiversal Framework" that conceptualizes cognitive differences through the lens of physics. The project contrasts the "Newtonian" linear timeline of the neurotypical mind with the "Quantum" simultaneity of the neurodiverse mind, using geometric and gravitational metaphors to map lived experiences such as executive dysfunction, hyperfocus, and the visceral nature of memory.
