Lawrence you are in my head. All of your videos have plagued me all of my 45 yrs. Thank you for sharing your journey with us like minded people. But it is all consciousness, there is no thing else.
May I ask, how you know that there is nothing but consciousness? Seems a bold claim when the scientific method seems to tell us there is a physical reality independent of human perception.
It's not all consciousness. There is baseline reality but it is forever out of reach. Each consciousness is an attempt to interpret reality and the scientific method is the best we will ever come up with. The scientific method and mathematics is an approximation of reality. Both are systems designed to guide our brains to try and understand what all this is, but us being trapped in our own senses, all our attempts will only scratch the surface of baseline reality. Still awesome. Life is life
I'm not a mathematician, so that language is beyond my scope, but having listened to many physicists explain time and space in their own terms, Lee Smolin makes the most sense to me. He doesn't have a final answer, but his explanations comport with my own uneducated view of space and time. It's comforting to know that there's someone out there in the field who is respected and who has come to see that my view of the world is quite possible from a scientific perspective. If you'd been laughed at as many times as I have by physicists or had gotten those glaring stares as much as I have, that means something.

I have the feeling that I am always "here" and always "there". I could take you to the exact location of my 5th Birthday and I think I am still there in time in the everlasting "now". All time exists in an eternal now.
I think time being emergent is a very simple and coherent theory, and it ties well with the simplest theory of personal identity. We feel as if time exists, and that is because we remember our past but not our future, and we can differentiate between 1 second ago and 5 seconds ago, that is just the way our brains evolved. There is a certain order in which our mental states occur, from past to future. There is no reason for this order, or for time to be fundamental. It is a useless ontological commitment. We experience things in a certain order, which alligns with classical laws of physics for a simple reason that those classical laws were developed by information processing system which works in time. So you measure ball's velocity at t=1, then t=2, then t=3 and so on. You don't measure it at t=3 and then at t=1 and then at t=2 and then try to develop a set of equations that would support such evolution in such time, it is not evolutionary benefitial at all for us to have such method as even somehow intuitive. Imagine knowing just all the states of the ball without knowing the time, you can try developing laws of physics for each possible ball-state combination, and you will likely find that the simplest ruleset is the one that describes the evolution of ball-states in the same time we experience. This is because our brain is an object, just like the ball, and all the information processing in it is more likely to occur by the simplest ruleset which is the one that matches with the order in which we experience things. Here is my argument: I can imagine such a bundle of ball-states that the simplest ruleset explains a certain succession of those given ball-states does not match with the simplest ruleset that explains the succession of states of the information processing system that is studying the ball's movement. Time is the order in which information is processed. There is nothing fundamental about that order. It just happens to allign well with everything else happening in the physical world, for reasons described above. It could be that it does not allign, although I am sure it is mathematically very unlikely. So the picture that follows from this: there is a bundle of mental states. Those are experienced in a certain succession, each of them feels like it occured after the previous one. This succession is emergent. I actually have a very simple argument for that order being emergent. Let's suppose it's fundamental. If order is fundamental, t1 t2 t3 is different from t3 t2 t1. Let's say t1 is experiencing rock flying into the window, t2 - rock breaking the window, t3 - aftermath. t3 feels like continuation of t2 and t1, because it contains memory about those. If you reorder the mental states so that t3 is the first, t3 still contains the memory of t2 and t1, it still feels continuous with t2 and t1. And t1 does not become such that it contains the feeling of being continuous with t3. Reordering the mental states did nothing, as the contents of those mental states didn't change. The subject of the subjective experience realized in those mental states will experience the same thing regardless of the "order" of his mental states. Given that, there is no reason for an ontological commitment to the existence of any specific order as it does not make any difference.
Thank you! I can sense my conceptual horizon expanding as I watch your videos. (The word gravity leapt to my mind a few minutes before one of your interviewees brought it up.)
when i was very young maybe 6 years old and i was told to wait 5 minutes or 10 minutes for something i would look at the clock and man it really felt like forever. and people would say thats because your young time will go faster as you get older implying that its a figment of the imagination. But as i am learning these things i realize now that it was not a figment of my imagination time really was going so slow for me and that it most likely has something to do with my size that i was was much smaller in relation to the earth then adults. and then it all made sense. on a side note its nice to know we have all lived a life time no matter how fast we die. and imagine how long time is for a microscopic organism. when i was real young it felt like the time would never come that i die but we know that it will come. so all that matters is what lays ahead and what is out there in space and beyond our dimensions even. when you think about why anything at all rather then nothing at least for me i am understanding that its because it had to be and most likely everything had to be and there is no such thing as nothing.. in fact that is the meaning of nothing, that it don't exist. so don't worry you are here and will always be here.
Nothing is when we did not measure or practice. Can you practice or praying "infinity times" a day and to be realistic you have to measure to be specific for example by praying "five times" a day with reference to nature days and nights , direction and purpose to be real and acceptable in mortal domain. Else non existence and meaningless when in immortal domain. We don't know because we did measure time but lacking of practices or experiments or level of 'infinity" dimensions missing except TIME, GRAVITY, ELECTROMAGNET, WEAK and STRONG NUCLEAR FORCES. Be prompt in doing good deeds (time is real and measurable) by turbulence which would be like a part of the dark night (time is not real and cannot be specifically measured.) During (that stormy period) a man would be reality in the morning and an not real in the evening or he would be a reality in the evening and not real in the morning, and lost his "faith" from something real into nothing for not measuring and be specifically good. Something good and true will be rewarded real and vice versa.
I would postulate that time is emergent from space and that no space is impossible (a vacuum is still a space with feilds.). Our brightest minds are experts at rationalising, analysing and justifying any point in or about our Universe.
It's common misunderstanding that it is possible to go back and forth in space. Matter defines spacetime and when you are moving forward then the space behind you is not the same space - there the defining matter has been changed - you can never go back to the past position but when you imagine you turned back, you only turned the direction where was the next forward direction. Space and time are really equal.
With the way brains work, only parts of it are in your head. Your brain has to make room for many things that are important, like memories that are important to you.
The way some of these guys, like that Nima dude, will just rattle of facts and figures related to concepts and principles like Plank length in a "of course everybody knows that," sort of manner always blows my mind. It's not done in a I'm the smartest guy in the room kind of way, it's just how they roll. His stream of consciousness is vastly different from mine that's for sure.

4:18 Strong parallels with children or grandchildren. As a parent, you are constantly sending information backwards in time in a sense to avert disasters but never being able to realize that world for yourself. You try to give them hints and advice earlier in their youth than you understood that information in yours. Their reality is a split dimension of what yours could have been.
I wrote a time travel story that suggests time going forward in two different universes, but in different directions, thus allowing a person to go backward in time by traversing to the other universe. The rate of time is also different between them.
Could there be causation at the planck space / length, which also produces the future beneath the planck time? What might causation look like physically?
Since the space and time are relatives and everything exists in spacetime can be reduced to information that is perceivable only by consciousness thus fundamental quantities must be consciousness and information("knowledge").
@@Hank254 After millenia of reasoning we still do not have the slightest idea what consciousness is. The reason for that could be very simple: it is fundamental. You can't see the forest for the trees 😉

If someone wants to claim that consciousness and/or information are fundamental, they are perfectly welcome to demonstrate it.
I like the way the first guy describes time, he's getting closer to the truth. A time traveller would be able to master skills at seemingly superhuman speeds wouldn't they. because they could simply spend hours practicing and then return to the point in time where they started learning and look like a genius. If someone could manipulate time that would make them invincible next to those that couldn't. They would know things they shouldn't know. They could have entered a room heard a conversation, then gone back in time and never entered that room and still known what was said leaving the occupants wondering are they guessing? they couldn't possibly know that could they? Think about it, I wouldn't mess with a time traveller, neither should you.
Nothing but the intervals to which we attach names: hour, minute, second. Einstein demonstrated in 1905 that time does not exist, its only valid expression is as a variable.
As is everything in the matrix in which we interface with; name and give meanings too, to what we we perceive. And has been preformed before our time of being. As there is no duality because we are all as one with the universe. consciously connected, yet unexplainable.
There is no time...only now....our identity is a constant always present in the now...so its a I AM...think about a "past"event and you relive it as though you are experiencing it...same with "future"...I want this type car is only because youve experienced the feeling of owning it as NOW..thats how we get goals...in.my practice I helped most people to stop reliving past experiences..im a clinical.psychologist....ive not had a watch or clock for over 30 years and ive never been late...stop thinking time and your internal watcher keeps you always "on time"....we only move through events..seasons...but ALWAYS as me now...the eternal I AM
13:38 his analogy using the book to explain block universe was fantastic.. I believe similar, except I think there are an almost infinite number of remainders to the story, each potential until the page is read. Think of a book that gives you the opportunity to have free will, and to an extent, choose how the story unfolds.
Try imagining that there's no such thing as time. I mean try seriously hard. Then look at the stuff around you and at the universe and see that nothing has changed. There still be stuff and it still be moving at which point you might realize that 'time' is not more than an extremely useful concept making it much, much easier to think about how some moving things relate to other moving things. In short, existing things don't need 'time' to prevent them from popping out of existence.
re book analogy - with a book - we can easily move flip back to previous pages - or flip forward to "future" pages - how do we do that with the block universe - outside of scifi
@@johneyon5257 "if time stops" Time cannot stop because time is not actually existent. Nothing freezes in place because everything that actually exists is moving with inertia. After a lifetime of thinking that time is a something, it might take a while to realize that it's not. Time is a concept so ubiquitous in our language that we are no longer conscious that when we speak of time we are really only speaking about the relative movements of objects and we speak this way because it's more convenient and efficient. You know with great certainty that there is no delicate antenna in a clock being induced to oscillate by a flowing river of metaphor. And you know there's a reason why the mechanism at the core of every clock is called a 'movement'.
@@REDPUMPERNICKEL - i see - - time is an illusion - it is confused with changing relationships - which are real - but time is not - - that could be viewed differently - that time emerges from changing relationships
Temperature is familiar to our senses we can feel it. Time isn't familiar to any of our 5 senses, it might feel like it's passing but that isn't a literal feeling. but rather psychological.
Listening to the different views of the last two physicists - from my lay perspective - seemed like the Pre-Socratic philosophers Parmenides and Heraclitus all over again.
13:10 , Block universe is limited, in your mind your imagination or in dreams . You can time travel to the future and come back, it’s the memory that needs to be worked on, that vail between awakening and sleep needs to be lifted, people that do dream studies understand and some have experienced time travel
13:34, mathematics can be a hindrance or a wall to the other realities. science with its peer review is a societal reality, which is good for society and nature has its realities with its mathematics that science is still working on
Lee Smolin was by far my favorite interviewed expert in this episode... thank you.

I like the argument. I will add that the emergence floating in order does give rise to importance. I don’t see how it can be irrelevant.
Or put more simply,
time is a concept only and
this concept is vastly more convenient than
talking about the relative movements of different objects.

Matter defines spacetime and when you are moving forward then the space behind you is not the same space - there the defining matter has been changed - you can never go back to the past position but when you imagine you turned back, you only turned the direction where was the next forward direction.

So time is conciousness
If you mean that
time is a concept maintained in the minds of some conscious people then
I agree with ya.

Is e=mc^2 exact, or is it an approximation, like the fine structure constant?

If someone wants to claim that consciousness and/or information are fundamental, they are perfectly welcome to demonstrate it.
@@Hank254 Check out the work of Donald Hoffman, it's really interesting.
I like the way the first guy describes time, he's getting closer to the truth. A time traveller would be able to master skills at seemingly superhuman speeds wouldn't they. because they could simply spend hours practicing and then return to the point in time where they started learning and look like a genius. If someone could manipulate time that would make them invincible next to those that couldn't. They would know things they shouldn't know. They could have entered a room heard a conversation, then gone back in time and never entered that room and still known what was said leaving the occupants wondering are they guessing? they couldn't possibly know that could they? Think about it, I wouldn't mess with a time traveller, neither should you.
Great advice🕎🕎🕎🕛🕛🕛
What about time in multiple universes (classical)? Can there be causation from one classical universe to the next?
Nothing but the intervals to which we attach names: hour, minute, second. Einstein demonstrated in 1905 that time does not exist, its only valid expression is as a variable.
Hurray..you also know this!!!!
As is everything in the matrix in which we interface with; name and give meanings too, to what we we perceive. And has been preformed before our time of being. As there is no duality because we are all as one with the universe. consciously connected, yet unexplainable.
what lee smolin said was very interesting
Every one feels time no one knows time.
Is photon speed of light communicating information of past causation?
There is no time...only now....our identity is a constant always present in the now...so its a I AM...think about a "past"event and you relive it as though you are experiencing it...same with "future"...I want this type car is only because youve experienced the feeling of owning it as NOW..thats how we get goals...in.my practice I helped most people to stop reliving past experiences..im a clinical.psychologist....ive not had a watch or clock for over 30 years and ive never been late...stop thinking time and your internal watcher keeps you always "on time"....we only move through events..seasons...but ALWAYS as me now...the eternal I AM
13:38 his analogy using the book to explain block universe was fantastic..
I believe similar, except I think there are an almost infinite number of remainders to the story, each potential until the page is read. Think of a book that gives you the opportunity to have free will, and to an extent, choose how the story unfolds.
Try imagining that there's no such thing as time. I mean try seriously hard. Then look at the stuff around you and at the universe and see that nothing has changed. There still be stuff and it still be moving at which point you might realize that 'time' is not more than an extremely useful concept making it much, much easier to think about how some moving things relate to other moving things.
In short, existing things don't need 'time' to prevent them from popping out of existence.
re book analogy - with a book - we can easily move flip back to previous pages - or flip forward to "future" pages - how do we do that with the block universe - outside of scifi
@@REDPUMPERNICKEL - if time stops - and everything freezes in place - how is it still moving?
@@johneyon5257 "if time stops"
Time cannot stop because
time is not actually existent.
Nothing freezes in place because
everything that actually exists
is moving with inertia.
After a lifetime of thinking that
time is a something,
it might take a while
to realize that it's not.
Time is a concept so ubiquitous in our language that
we are no longer conscious that when we speak of time
we are really only speaking about the relative movements of objects and
we speak this way because it's more convenient and efficient.
You know with great certainty that
there is no delicate antenna in a clock
being induced to oscillate by a flowing river of metaphor.
And you know there's a reason why the mechanism at the core of every clock is called a 'movement'.
@@REDPUMPERNICKEL - i see - - time is an illusion - it is confused with changing relationships - which are real - but time is not - - that could be viewed differently - that time emerges from changing relationships
❤ Very good 👍🏼
How do we know if time flows/moves?
It doesn't it's events that flow/move time just tracks and measures them.

I believe time fits better as an emergent dimension, not a fundamental one
ua-cam.com/video/FDYPQIJY14s/v-deo.html
I think time is as real as temperature is. Nobody talks about if temperature is "real".
Temperature is familiar to our senses we can feel it. Time isn't familiar to any of our 5 senses, it might feel like it's passing but that isn't a literal feeling. but rather psychological.
Listening to the different views of the last two physicists - from my lay perspective - seemed like the Pre-Socratic philosophers Parmenides and Heraclitus all over again.
The last guy has the most reasonable position
13:10 , Block universe is limited, in your mind your imagination or in dreams . You can time travel to the future and come back, it’s the memory that needs to be worked on, that vail between awakening and sleep needs to be lifted, people that do dream studies understand and some have experienced time travel
Could that be a graviton where space-time breaks down into black hole at the planck units?
Why can't I imagine half a Planck unit?
"In this field you have to be a perfect physical specimen or you are not talking.."
I'd love some new episodes if that were possible once this pandemic is over come on Robert you can do it
He's likely to continue as he's been doing this for 30 years.
Does the entire universe experience the same moments of time, or causation in the present?
Makes my mind wander and even believe i can solve time travel 🧳🧭 😂😂 love it
Time is existence.
3:00 That makes no sense. Why are we never in that special universe that does gets information from that future?
Could be that time is actively shaping physical reality. When perceive time, perceive different effects on physical reality that time is shaping.
13:34, mathematics can be a hindrance or a wall to the other realities. science with its peer review is a societal reality, which is good for society and nature has its realities with its mathematics that science is still working on
When you interviewed Kip Thorne, you should have asked him about his fine collection of vintage CRTs.
Does causation trade off between space and time, making them relative to the observation of causation?
Is start and an end the most fundamental to understanding of time?
