IMO to 'presume' the *appearance* of matter is not more than what I call (Colin's) *perceived reality* - our own figment at the mental level we *can and do* muster. Bruno's *(nowhere(!) assumed)* "primitive matter" would transcend the 'perceived' - so it seems irrelevant in this respect, however... he assumes a *"consensual reality"* . In whch case a 'consensual' would be even weaker than a 'perceived' - this being a "one-person" mindset and does not require (consensual) agreement from many. I still feel that 'numbers' lurk somewhere in these - non primary - hills....(as not 'primitives'!) - no matter how imaginative it would be to 'express' anything with long-enough series of them.
