The Perceived Speed of Time

Ben Curry

The speed of information through space… how far is it from the speed of light?

We used to use the excuse of “I’m waiting to hear back”… but that doesn’t get you far/long anymore.

When our data and information moves so much faster than we do, what do we do?

Steven D. P. Moore

Temporal space combines cyclic signals, discrete events, object-oriented relationships, and the interconnectedness of multiple timelines within a finite and one-dimensional geometric framework. Unlike traditional uses of time and metric space, temporal space is finite and modelled using ordered discrete elements equated to dimensional time. Its applicability extends to a natural number line instead of an infinitesimal real number line. Temporal elements possess diverse properties, including object-relational durational data and dimensional quantities of time. Notably, temporal space allows for the intriguing possibility of a network of multiple timelines that can be equated to a single shared linear timeline, introducing a novel and dynamic dimension to our understanding of time and space.

The concept of temporal space emphasizes cyclic signals, discrete events, and divisional/subdivisional structures with consistent application of ancient formulas to create ordered temporal elements. The approach not only offers a new view on durations and time but also introduces innovative applications in studying ancient timekeeping and calendar systems.
