Queen Mary University of London professor of mathematics and astronomy Bernard Carr believes that there are unfathomable dimensions that are linked to our consciousness.

Albert Einsteiin theorised that there are four-dimensions, although many physicists believe that there could be as many as 11, although we can only perceive three.

However, Professor Carr believes that there is one more dimension that our consciousness interacts with.

He adds that of the dimensions he envisages, there is a hierarchical structure – and we are at the bottom.
