Talk:Fundamental entity
Add topicI think that the trouble with physics today is in the idea that we can stop time on paper or take it out of the equation, when in fact all they can do is show a picture of space for one moment in time. To truly stop time you would have to halt all motion, because motion is the geometry of time, and without motion you would have nothing to measure. Can you think of a one dimensional line? I can picture one dimensional motion as being a line but without that motion, nothing. Petm1 03:56, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
With time as fundamental then the rule local clocks tick at the same rate would be the cause of thermodynamic equilibrium.Petm1 04:43, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
Time contraction; The arrow of time is dilation from any point. We may not contract time but we can force the motion we measure as time to contract in the form of heat. Heat has a paradoxical motion of matter in a gravity well i.e. as you increase the heat of a system matter tends to rise out of the gravity well. I see this as another part of the rule local clocks tick at the same rate, it is just the clock changing position to equalize its tick rate with the surrounding area not just equalizing its temperature with its surroundings. --Petm1 16:28, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
If our arrow of time is outward dilation from every point, then our link to the past is inward to the center of every point. If you think of matter as a dilating field from one point in time, then the inverse of our arrow of time would appear to be pointed to the center of every atom. In my minds eye this makes the past and mass the same direction, and with mass the past then I think of matter as our future. --Petm1 19:57, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
Temperature, position, pressure, inertia and the count of a clock are all relative measures of our present moment, time. --Petm1 06:58, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
We should think instead of big bang, little twist. First remember Planck epoch is relative, then think this is the point where the outward dilation of time began as energy changing one time dimension into three dimensions of space with one of time. Each dimension has two possible directions in time, left/right, up/down, in/out, and time as a area, outward/inward. I like to think that there is a little bit of that twist in every atom today, and we are on the dilating side of this twist. Petm1 20:10, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
Consciousness is the only part of myself that is of the present moment only. My consciousness is processing my present moment from signals that were emitted sometime in the past, then by the time I think of picking the drink up off of my desk and reach for it I am in the past. This means that any time I try to move anything I am always changing and working in the past just a little bit behind the present. No wonder it is hard to change a mass's position I can only affect the recent pass, no matter what interaction I see. Why does mass, or in my mind the dilating momentum of matter, resist change? How about the thought "anything that you do because of what you see is changing the past"? Maybe position is a measure of the present but to change it you must start in the past. Matter is what we see and think about and talk about, but when it comes time to do something with matter you have to deal with its mass. Mass or matter's resistance to movement seems to me is because we see the present but we always act after seeing or in the past. Matter is our continuum and mass's resistance to change is because we always move just a little bit in the past behind what we see as the present. Think of one second as my present, what I see is the beginning what I do is its ending, matter is my future and mass is my past. Petm1 21:07, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
A clock counts changes, or a clock counts repeatable motion, it is a adding machine. A clock does not measure motion it counts it, it does not measure changes it counts change. How about thinking of a photon as one instant of time, all of the change in the photon is through space as it moves into your eye. Your eye on the other hand even at rest in space, is still dilating through time at c to receive it. It is the space time interval of 299,792,458 meters per second as measured by all observers that is unchanging in the present for each observer. Petm1 05:47, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
In my mind time is the orthogonal part of reality, after all time is the only thing we can set to zero at will, and is different for everyone depending on their view. Petm1 04:19, 12 June 2010 (UTC)
Think of time as the aether, energy as the quanta of time, and space as a direction within this "one" dimension we call time.Petm1 15:22, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
We exist between the single temporal event called big bang. A White hole, outward motion as from a focal point, and a black hole, inward motion from the same focal point, these are the two horizons we see. The white hole flew apart into billions of dilating focal points, and thanks to our hard wire consciousness, our view of them is from the outside. Atoms are the two dimensional horizon of the dilating while hole we see as matter, and if I am not mistaken the inside of the black hole I see at night is the other horizon. Measuring the dilating momentum of matter as mass is one of the reasons I think that mass is the past relative to each of us, and an expanding space is the future. Petm1 01:55, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
What direction are we looking?
Entropy leads to heat death of our visible universe, if this is the future what is the past? Big bang is one way to "look" back to the beginning but how do "we see" it? What if you think of big bang as a single event with two directions of motion, in and out like a focal point, let's call this motion energy and visualize it as a black and white whole. After 13 billion light years I would expect these two extremes to still be visible as our horizons. I like to think that because we are inside of the black hole and all paths are curved is why we always see a vanishing point, and the outside of the worm holes formed when the white whole flew apart is what makes up our focal points. Matter is the past that I "see" and mass is the past that I feel and if you think of the world line of matter as always beginning at the center connection called mass then you will always look towards the beginning by "seeing" the past.

I have just read Sidis' William James Sidis (1925). The Animate and Inanimate, Boston: R. G. Badger [^]. Leutha 17:29, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
Sisis states that his reverse universe will only work with matter as unchanging, read his sixth paragraph, yet mass is a measure only in the present and dependent upon its relative motion. Look at a world line, we do not see it as a line moving through space because the signals used to form the world line always starts at the subjects center. JEM
I think of time as the one dimension with space a subset, we just view it backwards. Space is nothing more than the duration of the photon we are seeing now and yet no mater which direction we look in space we are "seeing" all three dimensions of time; incoming signals from past events the future, signals we are receiving now the present, and those signals that have gone past us the past. The edge of the universe we see is the outer surfaces of the atoms sending us the signals formed by big bang and we still see them as matter waves. The twist in space-time, + + + - or - + + +, that gives us the center connection we measure as mass. Mass, the dilating momentum of matter, which we always measured as our past. The only reason we can measure mass at all is because of the co moving frame formed by our consciousness ability to keep up with light waves second by second. By the way don't you think that gravity is still repulsive, as measured by our accelerators. the motion started at big bang is still the motion we feel from every atom and count as time. JEM
