How to Theorize About Ordinary Time

Step-by-Step Guide

1. 1

   Step 1: Create the context for the thought experiment: Let there be an event of change

   and the result is THE CONTINUUM OF TIME. , Conclude that our visual experience of time is bio-electrical, i.e. based upon our electrons.
   
   As we age and our hair becomes grey, etc., our sense of time and aging is based upon chemical reactions that occur at a slower pace.
   
   Our metabolic rate has a lot to do with it too.
   
   But this article's theory has to do with our visual processing and thought  speed. ,,, For more art charts and graphs, you might also want to click on Category:

   Step 2: which is caused by electrons giving off photons as they move in their orbital shells around the nucleus of their atoms; Let each electron be spinning

3. 3

   Step 3: and have sides S1 and S2

4. 4

   Step 4: such that side S1 is toward the Observer and S2 is opposite the Observer; Further

5. 5

   Step 5: let the photon(s) be emitted from side S1; Let there be an Observer O

6. 6

   Step 6: who will perceive the photons after they have travelled some distance

7. 7

   Step 7: at lightspeed; Let the Observer O also be constituted of electrons that absorb the incoming photon(s)

8. 8

   Step 8: and have sides S3

9. 9

   Step 9: towards and absorbing the photon(s)

10. 10

    Step 10: and side S4

11. 11

    Step 11: opposite the absorption; Let the time t occurring during the light's travel at lightspeed over distance d be negligible.

12. 12

    Step 12: Assume the given condition

13. 13

    Step 13: "PARTICLE SPIN": Let the electrons in the thought experiment be subject to "spin"

14. 14

    Step 14: though they be particle-waves or cloud-like

15. 15

    Step 15: along an axis more or less

16. 16

    Step 16: as they traverse their orbit around the nucleus (much like the Earth spins on its axis as it goes around the Sun); Understand that "spin is ***not*** yet thoroughly understood by physicists and may ***not*** occur around a single axis at all!

17. 17

    Step 17: Define the term "ordinary time" to be the time that elapses when an electron orbits around the nucleus of the atom many times

18. 18

    Step 18: in order to make up a partial second that human beings can sense visually

19. 19

    Step 19: perhaps about 1/48th of a second.

20. 20

    Step 20: Assume that spin does occur around an axis

21. 21

    Step 21: then we might also assume that the photon carries the information of the electron's state to the perceiving electron;

22. 22

    Step 22: Assume also that the information belongs to facing side S1 and not to opposite side S2;

23. 23

    Step 23: Consider that the electron is constantly spinning

24. 24

    Step 24: assume S1 becomes S2 and S2 spins around to face the Observer and becomes S1 (unless a photon strikes the electron in the interim or there is some other dynamic event); that is ...

25. 25

    Step 25: Theorize that THE "PRESENT" BECOMES THE "PAST"

26. 26

    Step 26: and THE "FUTURE" spins around to become THE "PRESENT".

27. 27

    Step 27: Conclude

28. 28

    Step 28: given that since there are many electrons within an ELECTRONIC FIELD as this all occurs

29. 29

    Step 29: that we may suppose that a PATTERN OF INFORMATION is passed to the Observer more or less continuously over a period of time

30. 30

    Step 30: and it is IN the continuity of that pattern that we HAVE the experience OF Time itself.

31. 31

    Step 31: Let the theory then account for the fact that the immediate future is typically very similar to the immediate past.
