World Science Festival

День тому

Join a physicist, a neuroscientist, and a linguist as they explore the deep enigmas of time. Time feels like it flows, but does it? Time seems to have a built-in direction, from past to future, but is that real or merely a quality imposed by the human brain? Time on earth elapses at a uniform rate, so why does the human experience of time seem so varied? How do various neurological afflictions change the perception of time? And underneath it all, how does human language impact our ability to think about time and fully experience its rich and mysterious contours?
PARTICIPANTS: Lera Boroditsky, Dean Buonomano
MODERATOR: Brian Greene

Exactly. The future is in a quantum state of superposition. The past is classical, it’s already decohered and is now subject to thermodynamic decay and dissolution of order into an increasing entropic state:. The only thing that is “real” is the now; when we (a collection of events) interact with our environment in a process called decoherence. Time, and therefore the now, is relative and only real for the events that have the strongest interaction which is communicated at the speed of light. The notion of a bulk universe where the past, present and future are equivalent may only be real for a photon which does not experience time. Its lightcone must seem like a single instant when past, present and future all exist at once: We, as confined energy, do experience local time because we are in respective gravity wells which slow down spacetime and give us a sense of now, which for distant observers could lie in their future or their past. Btw gravity wells are not a technical term but a good visualization. I suspect they are, in fact, force carriers called gravitons( negative pressure) which weakly bind matter/energy. Thermodynamics and thus the arrow of time are governed by the mysterious dark energy which exerts positive pressure and expands the universe.

@@lucienberl He is also one of the smartest people himself, so I guess it was only a matter of time. No pun intended, because I'm not as corny as dr. Greene is, but I guess I can honour him by letting it slide this time :p I do think that it helps a lot when a host actually understands the subject matter and also knows where the difficulties are for all the different people who are listening by having lots of experience with asking questions and listening to people asking questions as a teacher. I think it's too simplified to just say it's good to have a physics teacher on the stage because like students, all teachers are different as well. I think that dr. Greene has a very good mixture of the most important components that make him such a great physicist, teacher and host. 10 years ago I had my doubts and I thought he just liked the limelight a lot and dumbed things down too much after already having made several videos on the same thing and having done several talks, saying the same things over and over and I grew up. I now understand why he does love the limelight to shove his love for physics in. He loves people just as much and he loves nothing better than to see the same enthusiasm for science in others that he has as well and share it with the world. And sure, he's vain and likes the attention and he finds himself very funny, but can you really blame him? He is one of the, if not the best science communicator of our time and I think he knows and is comfortable with the fact that he's such a dad when it comes to jokes and we laugh at least as much at him as we do about his dad jokes :p I'm glad I'm not his kid; I'd be embarrassed as fuck but also very proud and happy to have him as a father.

Kalapi Trivedi - Prior to this talk I didn’t quite get the ‘reality’ of how concrete and time-bound the thinking of many very intelligent people is. This helped me understand more about why my ideas are often dismissed or laughed at by respectable academics - and why it is so difficult to find a shared language to describe how I personally intuit things. I’m certainly not brilliant, but am one of minority of people who often experiences life non-linearly and tends to frame everything in a very abstract way. It was a huge problem in school and confusing to those around me growing-up. This all prompts me to wonder how many people who intuit time as fundamentally linear and concrete, were in any way affected by this information. My hypothesis is that time perception is a fundamental ingredient in the diversification of human personality; hardwired and perhaps, insurmountable.

That being said The notion of when things are happening is a fundamental portion of information that needs to be passed over in any language, so how that information is passed on in your spoken language and what images are constructed in your minds eye when you interpret time passing is also fundamental to your perception of time. The fact that learning a language is one of the first things you do to help you communicate information means the language you learn does in some fundamental way help you construct your ideas about how the universe operates .

The fact, however, that you immediately defer to "qualification" just shows the kind of thinker you are. Uncritical and wowed by the bells and whistles of a system accepted without criticism or critique. Qualification is no guarantee of anything, evidence and reason stand for themselves and it's only there that you will find what's real.

In these times we live in , some tin foil hat wearing people also love calling themselves "critical thinkers", and they love to shit all over the hard work of scientists thinking they know better somehow , so it's important to know what sort of person one is dealing with. Ironically the language you used in your comment gave me the impression that you maybe had , lets say, "alternative" reasons to be so dismissive of this lady, rather than your knowledge of linguistics or neuroscience.

Time, consciousness, regrets, dreams, all that stuff is highly interesting! It is also highly controversial and completely irrelevant to everyone else. No one can actually feel these things as you do, no one will ever truly know or understand how it feels, it's all relevant, constantly rewriting our awareness and consciousness through every single thought, muscle movement, environmental impact, regrets, fears, accomplishments, parents. Personal perspective and perception of your life is so deep and thought provoking

it really does feel like 50/50 to me, regarding how much words make up building bounds of reality and how much intuition defines and grows the bounds. The way I grow most through both fields is by empathy. I look at identification in context and ways other very smart people of the past and present understood/understand thinigs and only then I realize how unbelievably ahead of myself they are. It's actually rare that the thoughts I think of are my own anymore. i've deemed other people better at most ways of understanding stuff.

As I see it, time is merely a degree of freedom that allows change to happen!! Time is not synonymous with change. If you have three Petri dishes and 1 hour of time?? Of each Petri dish contained three kinds of bacteria with varying speeds of replication?? Within the span of 1 hour you would have differing rates of change in each Petri dish?? Of course these rates of doubling are in no way fundamental in nature but it does effectively show the distinction between time and change!!

⏰⏳🐞 Time to make a yummy nighttime coffee and to press play on this newest World Science Festival episode on time. It premiered tonight, but I missed viewing most of it. Thank goodness that WSF makes these panel discussion available soon after they have premiered them. Of what I did catch at the the tail end of this discussion and which made me scrunch my forehead is when one panelist mentioned that the idea of time travel is not present in older writings nor fables. That it is a concept that is relatively new. That it emerged in the last hundred or so years in fantasy and sci-fi writings. A part of me wonders if that claim is true. To me, it seems absurd that there are no spoken word stories nor poems nor plays nor any of the numerous myth-based allegories which religions are rife with which in some shape or form play with the construct of time. My curiosity has been set on fire. 🔥

"remember the past, live in the present and dream of the future" is one of my mantras. I think that time is mostly subjective and an abstract meta catogary which helps us put what happens into order. From a physics perspective it seems more to describe space and interaction with it than having time as its own thing. We use time to describe other things, not the other way around. Even when you go into poetry and try to give time adjectives the mind mostly wonders to places than having it associated with time itself. Time is a tool to us. Perhaps that is why i find the french film Immortals so fascinating.
