There are plenty of actually interesting and flabbergasting aspects of physics and the cosmos we don't understand but are actual issues or have some substance behind them (dark energy, flow, matter, quantum physics). People going off looking for something more exotic like other dimensional beings and how trips might be us interacting just seems desperate.
You're confused about beings in the first and second dimensions, why we cannot see them and if they see us????
I usually like to try and remain level and intellectual, but screw it, bottom line is that's Gobbledy, ****ing, ****. So many layers of consideration before you even start to consider the "beings" existence. Although considering the dimensions can serve as a nice starter for how we percieve our universe and our lack of ability to view time as the fourth dimension, and how spacetime can "bend" (rubbersheet analogy).
And then if you want to approach from the philosophical angle, there are far more substantial aspects on that front as well, if you consider the branching universes it challenges free will etc rather than wondering if creatures existing in 2d are responsible for our dreams and ghost sightings.

Yes I am very interested in quantum physics as well, but this thread is about dimensions and the possibilities of adding a fourth dimension, let alone a fifth or a sixth and so on, and what would it be like in these dimensions. Considering the stark difference between the idea of living in a two-dimensional world and living in a three-dimensional world. We are not here to talk about quantum physics or dark matter, (both of which I am very interested in) I would be happy to take a look at a thread you might start about those. All I ask is that you take a look at the videos I posted and not be narrow minded about them and pass them off as "gobbeldy ****" when they are far more than that. And besides, its Carl ****ing Sagan!
