Poetry used to provide an 'external' answer to Gödel, in that regard. Now I am not sure what, we're stuck with memes I guess.

It’s all about perspective. If we can’t truly see from without, why not nudge the viewport from within a bit? :P

Creative work and literature (memes also count!) are a great medium for exploration in this regard. Like… look at that Robert J. Sawyer’s book “Calculating God” (he’s one of my absolute favourite authors because of that book and others) and the fire it lit under so many butts in some “intellectual” circles, just by exploring the unconventional and discussing something both sides of the argument aren’t comfortable with.

I love things like that. Things that require your brain to do some squats and warm up before reading the next chapter.
