    I wonder if reaching through a portal and, say, holding your hands would feel more like holding two strangers hands. I mean, you’re still completely aware it’s your own two hands touching, and you can feel any movement mirrored in both of them, but your brain would be expecting your two arms to be coming together, and the fact that they were spread apart…I wonder how that would affect the subjective experience.
