EP. 2 | Unseen Worlds

Ninety-five percent of the universe is invisible.

Dark matter, dark energy, and other forms that emit no light, cannot be touched, and cannot be perceived by the naked eye. Without advanced instruments, we would not even know they exist. And yet, these unseen components form the foundation of everything we call reality.

This invisibility is not limited to distant galaxies.

In everyday life, human perception operates through a narrow slit. The eyes register only a small fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum. The ears detect only a limited range of frequencies. Beyond these boundaries lies an immense field of signals, movements, and interactions that pass through us continuously, unnoticed.

There are colors the human eye will never perceive. There are layers of sound beyond hearing, from infrasound to radio waves. Subtle vibrations move through space and through our bodies without triggering awareness. From the low-frequency calls of whales traveling across oceans to the nearly massless neutrinos streaming through us every second, we exist within a world that remains largely concealed.

Technology allows us brief glimpses into these hidden layers, but only through narrow openings. The more we observe, the clearer it becomes that perception does not reveal reality as it is, but only a thin surface of a far larger structure.

What we experience is not the whole. It is a fragment.

If most of reality exists beyond direct perception, then the question is unavoidable.

What is the true world?

And are we capable of perceiving it through something other than the senses we have relied on for millennia?
