In the mystic school: In notes 08 and 13 the encoder presses a world, layer by layer, into fewer and fewer numbers; in note 08 the Big Crunch is the encoder.

### examples

- The Big Crunch is the encoder: the world pressed into a point. (note 08) [tree →](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/mysticism/E/encoder/#x1)
- The encoder, written in biology. (note 08) [tree →](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/mysticism/E/encoder/#x2)
- The encoder takes a world and presses it, layer by layer, into fewer and fewer numbers. (note 13) [tree →](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/mysticism/E/encoder/#x3)
- In the note, the Big Crunch is the encoder (the world pressed into a point), the Big Bang is the decoder (the point unfolded into a world), and the seventh day is the latent space. (lesson 020) [tree →](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/mysticism/E/encoder/#x4)
- Six days of making, one day of rest, six of unmaking: thirteen days with the seventh in the middle, the shape of an autoencoder. Six layers narrow, one bottleneck sits in the middle, six layers widen again; the encoder presses a world into fewer and fewer numbers and the decoder unfolds them back into a world.
