You must not watch PBS. This show has been airing on PBS off and on for over 20 years, and continuously since 2008. Most of these videos on KZread are actually really old, and the interviews included are often much older than the original broadcast date. You can tell because some of the people interviewed died long before the episode copyright date. David Chalmers is in a lot of these looking really young with long brown hair. Today he actually has short, thinning white/gray. These are OLD.

This is really fascinating episode. Time, Space and matter , deeply joined and manifestations of a single reality. The underlying unity should transcend the bounds of space, time and matter itself, as if it is part of the same space-time continuum, then it cannot be the unity but a manifestation of space-time, an inherent component. Cosmology, since Einstein's relativity, is pointing and leading towards something more Subtle, where duality cease to exist and just unity remains. Philosophy talks about "unity of existence" and existence being "single gradational reality" or "one true unity and its manifestations" much before Science entered that arena.

For a temporal being to become timeless. It is with these latter claims that they make the distinction between physical (mortal) and metaphysical time (immortal). Physical time is metric time. In other words, it is time that has an intrinsic metric due to regularities in the physical universe. Events such as the earth revolving around the sun are regular enough to mark off units of time. Metaphysical time involves no metric or measured temporal intervals, example the immortal souls against the dust to dust we return as sure mortal.

Our cells have similar needs and microtubules serve to provide proto-skeletal, proto-muscular, and proto-vascular structures within the cells. The fact that anesthesia interrupts their transport that as a consequence interrupts the transmission of energy, resource, or information tells us nothing more than that it SAFELY interrupts those processes necessary for neurological communication.

When the Greek philosophers discussed existence they proposed being and becoming. In their linguistic argumentation they discovered, through logic, that you could not speak of things with agreement without adding space and time. You could not be sure you were talking about the same thing without this agreement about where it is and when: space and time are necessary for discussing things that exist - if something exists it exists "somewhere" and "sometime". Spacetime is the placeholder for the part of existence called becoming. What a thing is, its essence or being, is different from from where and when it is. What a thing is goes into its creation. Creation is about intention. Linguistically this is translated as cause, purpose, function and form. For, linguistically, what a thing is depends on who created it and what it does and why it does what it does and its form or description. Philosophers could not be sure they were talking about the same thing without this agreement about form and function: description and explanation. They are placeholders for the part of existence called being. But all these "words" are linguistic operations. They are the stratagem of separate beings to communicate their consciousness of themselves and their world to each other. Us. Ultimately what you are or what I am resolves our existence. Our consciousness of ourselves and nature, others, is derivative of our being and integral of our becoming. Our existence is experienced through consciousness. Our consciousness can be expressed through language but it is not limited by the linguistic mind. Time and space, form and function these are the "words" of scientists and philosophers. Direct experience of the world can not always be communicated. Do not let language trap your experience of existence. Language is interesting but it is interesting like porn, not like the girl next door.

Q: Einstein never agreed with bigbang-theory and he never refuted his idea of a universe that began as an infinite emptiness? To explain the origin of gravity Einstein assumed an interaction between that emptiness and spacetime, that caused space to bend into matter and gravity while time throughout the universe can be relative?

They're saying there is only one existence..with alot of words of course lol

They didn't start from a singularity. The concept of a singularity in physics is probably the most misunderstood thing by the average person. A singularity isn't a real physical entity. It represents a point in the equations of physics where you have a zero divisor. It's an indication that there's a fundamental problem with the approach; basically the equivalent in mathematics of a software bug. If a singularity were an actual physical thing, it would be a dimensionless point of infinite density; essentially everything contained in no space. It's not mathematically, physically, or philosophically coherent.

The smallest physically meaningful volume we can talk about is the so-called Plank volume, which can be thought of as a 'sphere' with a 10^-35 meter radius. Everything would have been confined within this volume when the universe was 10^-43 seconds old. Current physics can't see further back than this. That's _really_ small but it's not a singularity. The important thing to remember about a singularity is that it's not a physical thing. It's a mathematical abstraction. Some really bad popular science books and documentaries talk about singularities like they're possibly actual objects but they're mistaken about the concept. BTW, anyone who says "I'm not the average person, I'm above average" is almost certainly _not_ above average. That's an incredibly immature and narcissistic thing to say.

And there must have been a time when the dominos first fell, cause if one moment causes the other, this pattern couldn't arise simultaneously.

The same equations that describe space-time, also say that time is moving at the speed of light, from our point of view that is. medium.com/predict/we-all-travel-through-spacetime-at-the-speed-of-light-d60cb389dfc2 That's why when you start moving through space close to the speed of light, then time slows down for you. If time is a like a river that flows at the speed of light, and you catch up with this current by moving at the same speed, then this current effectively stops for you, and you don't experience its flow anymore. You can do such an experiment with water at a slower speed. It works like this even according to Newtonian physics. When you catch up with a flowing current of water, then this current effectively stops for you and you don't experience its flow anymore. But this stopping of the current is only relative to you. Those, that don't travel at the speed of the current, still experience its flow.

Existence is theoretically part of the mind, or brain. Time and space is the brain, the brain of the creator is what you see when looking out to the universe and beyond what we experience is what the creator experiences in a different reality or alternate reality, and so on, and so on. We dictate to each other our moves, our moods, and our way of thinking, and we program each other’s future on our up bringing, and possibly beyond that. It’s not certain though throughout the program if it can be changed up from time to time. Our brains are the time machine, and like a computer 💻 has a ROM, and RAM. But yet when the system is reset, in sorts of a reincarnation process, we tend to lose all of the information, then within our newer dwellings, we can actually gain it all back in the form of dreams. We will experience dreams, good dreams and nightmares at a young age, then as we get re-associated ourselves with society again, to then again be programmed into a different reality. Could be the same reality with different outcomes, or the same exact one. Eventually as we get older and close to death, all that comes back with vengeance. It’s not vengeance against the world, it vengeance against ourselves.

"Spacetime Is fundamental". "Spacetime exist". That's what science and scientists say. But is it true? Well, not really. That's what you get when you google "is spacetime real? Space in our Universe is three dimensional, and when you combine it with time, you get a four dimensional quantity.

But under no circumstances should you conceive of space as though it's a material, physical thing; it isn't.

The aren't material because they don't have any physical properties. They are something else. Space, time, dimensions and some other things are a mathematical model, concept, construct.

why is it that Juan cant explain what he is saying. But when Kuhn asks him a question he always begins with Yes and then goes on to explain something different. I contend that space is 3D and time is a product of movement thru that space. You can say all kinds of things with poetry, art and dance. Then tell us what that means, but you cant go back in time and you can't get ahead of time, because there is no space in the future or the past to put time in. You can draw all the drawings you want to but you can't make a human see, touch, feel, hear or taste the 5th dimension. Or, the quantum or the qualia. You can show a shadow on the ground and say it shows the quantum world but that is called illustration. You can draw every part and detail of a 4 cylinder engine but you can't make it run, because it is art. So, sticking time into or making it a part of 3D is just art, poetry of dance. Not physics. Ask yourself, did the first human see the sky or swim in the water. He did. Do you in 2020 see the sky and drink the water. Yes you do. But you can't be in a 5D world because it only exists in the art world.
