Get the Breaking the fourth wall mug.The fourth wall is the imaginary "wall" at the front of the stage in a traditional three-walled box set in a proscenium theatre, through which the audience sees the action in the world of the play.
The idea of the fourth wall was made explicit by philosopher and critic Denis Diderot and spread in 19th-century theatre with the advent of theatrical realism, which extended the idea to the imaginary boundary between any fictional work and its audience.
Speaking directly to or otherwise acknowledging the audience through a camera in a film or television program, or through this imaginary wall in a play, is referred to as "breaking the fourth wall" and is considered a technique of metafiction, as it penetrates the boundaries normally set up by works of fiction. This can also occur in literature and video games when a character acknowledges the reader or player.

Get the furtherwhichs'more mug.The fourth dimension is time, as defined by Einstein in regards to the Theories of Relativity. The Spatial dimensions are those of height, length, and depth. The fourth dimension can be related to a hypercube, much as the first dimension is related to a line, the second two lines connected at perpendicual angles to one another, and the third dimension being a cube. The fourth dimension is(sometimes) associated with the space-time continuum.
It is truly inane to travel to a universe that is based only upon the fourth dimension, as that woould include only time, and no being could truly exist.
