Matrix Day 2


Your first round of questions may have been answered, but the rabbit hole goes much, much deeper. Although we now know the nature of the Matrix, many questions remain. Share them again tonight, and consider posing some possible answers - you might even wish to think about philosophical ideas from earlier in the semester to see if they are relevant.

  1. MY Questons:

    1. why is that guy that wants to get back in the matrix so desperate to get back. I mean if hes fighting with Morphious to get humanity back to the real world then why is he so desperate to go back to what is a symulation?

    2. Whats up with the Painful looking Acue Puncher.

  2. Question: If the matrix is a dream world for humans, a computer program how do the humans dream within a dream? If you could free your mind in the matrix how could you tell the difference between the dreams you have and the computer program?
