Welcome to Cracking the
Nutshell! In this video, I discuss the nature of time. Summary:
-
Newtonian time (absolute time)
- Relativistic
Time (
Einstein) / The observer
-
Time dilation (
Special Relativity Theory)
- Muons / cosmic rays (half-life)
- Philosophical Theories of Time: A and B theories (
John McTaggart)
-
Presentism /
Block Time
- "Now" moment and consciousness (awareness of change)
- Determinism and classical physics
-
Free will an illusion?
- Is time linear?
- Time as perception of duration, change and ordering of events
- Time an illusion of consciousness?
- Time enabling 3D physical perception of space
-
Universe whith no change and no perception
- Individual time, intricately linked to awareness
- Is time more fundamental than space?
- Universe where only patterns of states exist and perception of change, hence time (but no
3D space)
-
Fundamental time (quantum of time):
Planck time
-
Quantum gravity /
Quantum universe simulations
- Time fundamental (not emergent)
-
Renate Loll
- Time and consciousness
- Is there an objective reality out there?
-
Quantum physics / religion / philosophy / spirituality
- Physics and
New Age ideas
-
Consciousness as taboo (within Physics)
-
Brilliant minds in
Quantum Physics: Einstein, Bohr,
Schrödinger,
Heisenberg,
Wigner, Bohm,
Wheeler,
Feynman....
- Time from the Quantum Physics perspective
-
Probability distributions
-
Observation / Measurement /
Retrieval of
Information /
Collapse of the wavefunction
-
Collapse of Determinism
- Fundamental role of observer and "now" moment of time
- Determinism and randomness
-
Arrow of time /
Entropy / Causality / Deterministic equations of physics
-
Second Law of Thermodynamics /
Disorder / Time direction
- Is causality fundamental in our universe?
-
Free will and determinism
- Consciousness and free will and illusion?
-
Schrödinger's equation and determinism
- Non-local reality in the background (computing outside our space-time)
-
Flow of information between realities (or dimensions)
- From determinism to randomness? Or is there another option?
-
Interaction between quantum world and consciousness / free will
-
Double-slit experiments
- Information or knowledge fundamental?
- Experiments that provide evidence of mind-matter interaction (consciousness or free will can influence the outcome of a probabilistic distribution)
- Quantum random number generators
-
Helmut Schmidt
- Free will debates
- Purely linear physical causality?
- Non-local realms, nested time / nested realities
-
Tom Campbell
- Dogmatic believes within science
- Can the present change the past? Retro-causality (backwards causality)
-
Delayed choice quantum eraser
-
Nature of time and arrow of time, when causality does not need to be linear nor confined to just our-space time
-
Reality linked to observation / Collapse of objective reality
-
Linear timeline in our space-time versus branching time-line in probability space
- Retrieval of information (from probability space to our space-time) as key to understanding causality
-
Past and future databases / branching timeline
- Reality as probabilistic + free will
-
Scientific method and science
- Physics /
Metaphysics /
Philosophy
