So technology is all totally imaginary?

[iboughtleosbooklist]

As I write this I'm really just watching a video on my imaginary smartphone, perfectly synchronised with my imaginary fingers.

When I say "my" of course I mean 'my' (and 'I') for the self is also imaginary.

To top it off you are all imaginary characters without your own consciousness.

Either way I'd still like to chat with y'all and get involved in the grand play.

Take me back into the illusion daddy ?

I'll be your make-believe daddy 

I wish I knew what my role was in this play, but I'm imagining myself being Lost and that's good enough for me right now.

Man's creation = technology

Imaginary = Real

Is this forum 'real' or does it just 'seem real'?   It doesn't matter, you see?

Fixed it for you ?

I tried to investigate this during a few lucid dreams. Watching cars drive past me, seemingly perfectly driving visually and the sound of the engine. Wondering how are they actually working here. Completely imaginary was my conclusion. I tried to compare the experience the next day whilst watching the cars drive past me as I was walking, it was no different in my waking state as in the lucid dream. The only difference being was that in the dream I was conscious of them being imaginary, where as in the waking state I was not conscious of it but just held it as a concept that surely the same thing must be going on here, but like I say I wasn’t conscious of the fact as I had all the layers of the technology used to build the cars and engines that making them drive. In the dream I was totally conscious that all that was infact purely imaginary.
I done the same with a smartphone. I used one in the lucid dream, which worked as I flicked through different apps things like that. It was a bit off a bit iffy as things like that with writing and that on, on close inspection in the dream state can go a bit funny, a bit morphing like, but still it was a working phone and I was totally aware I was imagining it. I used it to call a mate and listened intently as they were speaking through this working phone, which was quite amusing if I’m honest. Again I tried to relate the next day in the same situation but could not become conscious of how I was imagining in the same way I could in the dream. Still though, it was a decent little exercise for me to try proved rather interesting to be honest
