THE STRAIGHT LINE OF TIME

The notion of line or straight line was introduced by ancient mathematicians to represent straight objects with negligible width and depth. Lines are an idealization of such objects. Until the seventeenth century, lines were defined like this: "The line is the first species of quantity, which has only one dimension, namely length, without any width nor depth, and is nothing else than the flow or run of the point which will leave from its imaginary moving some vestige in length, exempt of any width. The straight line is that which is equally extended between its points". Wikipedia

The time straight line or philochron line is continuously making itself for sequential moments. In the philochron line there is a dot at a time on a constant becoming. This line has the particularity that it is abstract and objective, like all mathematical entities. This line is objective because we leave from the experience to relate two sequential moments and then set those ideas at every interval through a process of abstraction. The subject does not create the philochron line (time), just support it.

Representations of space and time:

- Space coordinate: (extension, stillness).
The observer can be at any dot of the coordinate.

--------------------------->
.......... length ........ sense
<--------------------------

- Time coordinate: (sequential becoming, the double arrow).
The observer only can be in the present.

................... sense and becoming

........ past .......... present ....... future

Note: The Theory of the becoming-time duality was fragmented into various previous concepts and messages.
