THE PARALLELOCHRON

The parallelochron is the parallelism between the irregular duration and the regular duration (time) or between two times.

Duration is the continuous and irreversible occurrence of phenomena that goes from the past to the future. Time divides duration into equal intervals.


A: ----------------------------------> irregular duration

B: ----- I ----- I ----- I ----- I ----> regular duration

Cases of parallelochron:

1- The microwave
A: heating
B: timer

2- The Earth
B1: rotation movement
B2: clocks

3- Life
A: development and aging
B: age

THE PROPERTIES OF MATTER

The properties of matter are classified in general and specific. The general properties are: mass, weight, volume, inertia, impenetrability and time. The specific properties are classified in: organoleptic, physical, chemical and biological. The organoleptic properties are smell, taste, color, etc. The physical properties are: fragmentation, elasticity, states, solubility, viscosity, hardness, malleability, ductility, density, etc.

The chemical properties are: combustion, fermentation, oxidation, photosynthesis, etc. In chemical properties, materials alter their nature.

In Biology we can mention the properties of: growth, development, digestion, reproduction, aging, etc.

Time is not a physical property because it is not observable, either by the senses or by any device. Time is a magnitive or philochron property because we observe changes and from them we abstract time.

Elvis Sibilia, Florida, USA

HISTORICAL PAST VS METRICAL PAST

Philochrony distinguishes between the historical past (HP) and the metric past (MP). The historical past refers to the events that have already occurred. The metric past refers to dates prior to the present. The HP is not real, but the MP is, because time is an objective-abstract property of universe.

For example:
1- Destruction of the Berlin Wall (11-09-1989).
2- Attack to the Twin Towers (09-11-2001).
3- Indonesia earthquake and tsunami (26-12-2004).

The historical past is the events arranged chronologically and the metric past are the dates. Although the HP is not real we have evidence that it existed. Our date of birth is real and known. Our date of death is real but unknown. Death is an inevitable fact.

THE NATURE OF TIME

Let's also see the nature of water, light and color as a reference to the nature of time.

- Water is the substance formed by the H2O molecule.

- Light is the electromagnetic phenomenon composed of wave-particle that makes bodies visible.

- Color is the property (objective-concrete) that manifests in bodies when they are illuminated.

- Time is the property (objective-abstract) that indicates the duration of things. Water, light and color are material, time is not. Time is the most tenuous property in the universe. Time increases continuously in value due to the succession of changes.

Elvis Sibilia, Florida, USA

THE OBJECTIVE AND THE SUBJECTIVE

The objective is real, relative to the object. The subjective is mental, relative to the subject.

The objective can be:
a) Concrete (a specific thing: table, chair, apple, house, etc).
b) Abstract (quality considered separately that is part of the concrete: length, mass, time, volume, etc.).

The subjective can be:
a) Abstract (love, hate, happiness, peace, etc).
b) Imaginary (it is unreal: dragon, mermaid, unicorn, etc).

Time is the property we abstract from the phenomena of occurring continually. From a clock we abstract a measure, the quantity of duration. Similarly, from a body we abstract its mass or its length.

DEFINITIONS IN PHILOCHRONY

1- Philochrony is the formal science that describes the nature of time and demonstrates its existence.

2- Becoming is the continuous succession of irreversible moments that goes from the past to the future.

3 - Duration is the permanence of beings (between a start and an end) in a certain physical state or situation. Duration is also the continuous occurrence of phenomena between a time interval.

4- Time is the measure of duration by an uniform periodic movement (UPM). Time is the regular becoming.

5 - Magnitive is the ineffable quality of time to be objective, imperceptible and calibrated.

6- Chromnesia is the temporary memory; it is where units of time are processed. Although we understand the units of time, sometimes we do not understand what time is.

Elvis Sibilia, Florida, USA

WE MEASURE DURATION, NOT TIME

The difference between duration and time is that duration ends and time does not. An example of duration is life that ends with death. Time is the measure of duration by a uniform periodic movement (MPU). Time is the regular becoming.

We measure the duration of beings, not time. Time is already calibrated naturally for the motions of the Earth. Time is like a measuring tape that is already calibrated.

Thousands of years before Christ man discovered time calibration and created calendars. Clocks are an artificial copy of time. In the history of clock we can know the calibration process of this tool.

We use time with three purposes:
1- Measure the duration of beings (objects and phenomena).
2- Order events in sequence.
3- Set the schedules.

Now the magnitive time is objective, imperceptible and calibrated.

Elvis Sibilia, Florida, USA

THE ORIGIN OF TIME

In Mechanics there are several types of motion:

1) Uniform rectilinear motion (URM).
2) Uniformly accelerated motion(UAM).
3) The circular motion (CM).
4) The wave motion (WM).

Time originates from an uniform periodic motion (UPM) like Earth's motion. Time is the tool we use to measure the duration of things. If the origin of time or UPM ceases to be uniform it is not time, but an irregular or variable becoming. Relative time is not time, but an irregular becoming with a certain duration. A clock that is subjected to high speed would not be accurate in measuring time. 

It is not that time is relative, but that speed and gravity transform time (regular becoming) into an irregular becoming.

Elvis Sibilia, Florida, USA

FORMS OF BECOMING

Becoming is the continuous succession of irreversible moments that goes from the past to the future. Becoming is unstoppable and manifests itself in changes (perceptible). Becoming can be regular and irregular. The regular becoming or time is periodic and can be divided into equal intervals. For example: clocks. Time is magnitive, that is, objective, imperceptible (we know it by intuition) and measurable.

The irregular becoming cannot be divided into equal intervals. For example: rain and the life of organisms. We refer the duration of the irregular becoming to time for its measurement. Hence the importance of clocks and calendars. Time is the mathematical becoming; so to deny the existence of time is to deny reality. Time is a good tool to measure duration.

The irregular becoming is identified as Events and the regular becoming is Time. The principle of Forms of becoming applies in:

1- The origin of the universe.

Before the Big Bang there were only events and time originated with the BB. Abbreviated form: E - BB - T.

2- Space-time is the universe in all its extension and composition. In the universe we find celestial bodies, events and time. Some events are: light, gravity, black holes, etc. The periodic movements of the celestial bodies is time.

3- Speed is the relation between displacement (event) and time, that is, E / T.

Elvis Sibilia, Florida, USA

HOW TO MEASURE TIME WITHOUT A CLOCK

Clocks divide the day into hours, minutes and seconds. But, would it be possible to calculate time without a clock? Yes, based on the change-interval duality. The repetition of a process with constant duration is taken. All processes have a start, an end and an evolution. An example of this process is a musical song. Considering the lyrics and notes of a song you can determine the specific moment in the evolution of the song. The duration of the song is the unit of time. Although the use of a song is not useful, at least we know that we can estimate time without using a clock.

Elvis Sibilia

SCIENCE VS COMMON SENSE IN PHILOCHRONY

The main problem about the understanding of time is not its nature, but the differentiation between what is science and what is common sense in time. A science is the set of true, verifiable and general knowledge that describes an aspect of reality. Common sense is the sum of all the senses. By common sense we know that water wets and fire burns. Most people are in the state of common sense. Common sense tells us that the Sun revolves around the Earth, when in reality it is the Earth that revolves around the Sun.

1) It is common sense:
- Time flows or runs.
- Time is a dimension of space.
- One minute of pain lasts longer than one minute of pleasure.
- Time is what clocks measure.

2) It is science:
- Time is the change-interval duality.
- Time increases continuously due to changes.
- Physically, time exists in a continuous present.
- Mathematically, the time dimension is composed of sequential moments or nows.

Elvis Sibilia

THE SCIENTIFIC TIME AND THE TIME OF COMMON SENSE

The scientific time is defined as the duration of things (between an interval) in a given physical state or situation. Day is divided precisely in 24 hours, hours in 60 minutes and minutes in 60 seconds. One hour of work is equal to one hour of rest.

The time of common sense is defined as the continuous succession of irreversible moments or changes that goes from the past to the future. This definition is correct, but emphasizes the details of time. The scientific definition of time is closer to the nature of this magnitude.

For common sense, time may go slower or faster according to people's emotional state. Also for common sense, time flows faster as we age. To affirm that time is what clocks measure is also an idea of common sense.

The change-interval duality is deduced from the scientific definition of time.

Elvis Sibilia

SIGNIFIER, MEANING AND REFERENT

The signifier are all words or concepts, the meaning is the definition or idea of ​​the signifier and the referent is the object to which the signifier refers.

For example:

1- HOUSE (signifier)
- is the building we use to live (meaning).
- the graphic or drawing of a house (referent).

2- LOVE (signifier)
- is the feeling that inclines us affectively towards another person, animal or thing (meaning).
- person in love (referent).

3- SPACE (signifier)
- is the emptiness that bodies occupy (meaning).
- any body (referent).

4- TEMPERATURE (signifier)
- is the level of heat a body has (meaning).
- the sensation of heat or cold (referent).

5- TIME (signifier)
- is the duration of things in a certain physical state or situation (meaning).
- as the time interval does not generate sensation, the referent of this concept is its measurement. It is for that reason that in Physics the concept of time passes to its measure without defining it properly.

Elvis Sibilia

THE CHARACTER OF TIME

The concepts of matter, space and time are primary concepts, so it is difficult to define them. Matter is a substance, but it is the only one that exists. Space is a emptiness, but it is the only one that exists. And time is a duration, but it is the only one that exists. However, the concepts of substance, emptiness and duration are broader than the concepts of matter, space and time respectively.

The character of time is obtained from its definition: time is the duration of things (objects and bodies) in a given physical state or situation. The states can be: in motion, at rest, with life, in waiting and in existence.

In hourglasses we notice a periodic phenomenon. In clock hands, these move at different rates by measuring different intervals. In digital clocks, the digits last one hour, one minute and one second respectively in rest state. Rest is a form of change, it is a phenomenon.

Time has the character of being a magnitude, of being able to divide into sequential intervals and of having as a basis the changes that things experience.

Elvis Sibilia

THE SPATIO-TEMPORAL ADJUSTMENT

There are four questions that allow us to achieve spatio-temporal adjustment. On some occasions we have felt disoriented in relation to the following questions:

1- What time is it?
2- What day is today?
3- Where am I?
4- What is time?

In question # 3 the answer has been extended with the use of GPS.
With question # 4 we manage to be aware of what time is. Due to its nature it is the only way to become aware of time. The answer is always the same: time is the change-interval duality. By definition, time is the duration of things, between an interval, in a given physical state or situation.

Elvis Sibilia

THE MAGNITIVE DUALITY (CHANGE-INTERVAL)

The change-interval duality explains the nature of time. This duality arises because changes are the material basis of time. Time would not exist without these two different characteristics. Change is synonymous of phenomenon. Change is between the interval (a start and an end, a before and an after). This duality is magnitive because is objective (changes), perceptible-imperceptible and measurable (intervals).

1) Change:
- is perceptible.
- is irreversible.
- occurs continuously in the present (duration).

2) Interval:
- is imperceptible, does not produce sensation.
- relates two sequential moments.
- increases continuously, is measurable.

Elvis Sibilia

GEOMETRY OF THE TIME LINE

Geometry is the branch of Mathematics that teaches us the construction of figures of one, two or three dimensions.

The postulates of the time line are:

              IO           AI            PI
-----I----------I----------I----------I----------> TIME (hours)
            past      present    future

IO is interval occurred
AI is active interval
PI is potential interval

1- The arrow indicates the direction of time, from past to future.
2- The intervals (O, A, P) are singular. There is only one at a time.
3- The intervals (O, A, P) are sequential.
4- The time line arises from the change-interval duality.
5- The time line is infinite, both backward and forward.

Elvis Sibilia

TYPES OF INTERVALS

In the change-interval duality (time), the interval can be:
1) between the start and the end of a phenomenon, and
2) between two unrelated sequential events.

In general, time is the interval that flows continuously between two sequential events. For example, tomorrow is a potential interval (future), today is an active interval (present) and yesterday is an occured interval (past).  In an inactive hourglass, there is a potential interval, which when we turn the clock, it becomes an active interval. The current time, for example, 7:16 is the active interval between 7:00:01 and 8:00.

The types of intervals help us to understand time.

Elvis Sibilia

THE NATURE OF SPACE AND TIME

Space and time are of the same nature because they are made up dimensions. The difference is that space contains objects or bodies and time contains changes or phenomena. In space (3D) objects are placed and can move in three directions. In time (1D) changes occur sequentially, which have a start and an end. The direction of time is from the past to the future. Space is represented by three coordinates axes: horizontal (x), vertical (y) and transverse (z). Time is represented by a line that is made or extended sequentially (s), such as the progress bars in Computing. The timeline has no direction in space; It is only a spatial representation of time. It is like a cube drawn on paper.

We would not have an idea of silence if we did not know the sound. Similarly, we would not have an idea of space if there were no objects and we would not have an idea of time if phenomena did not occur or everything was static. Therefore, space is the emptiness (infinity) that matter and bodies occupy. Time is the interval (infinity) in which phenomena occur. Before the big bang there was space and time.

Elvis Sibilia

THE SOCIAL PHILOCHRONY

The Social Philochrony is the part of Philochrony that deals with the evolution of people as social entities. Not always the social development of a person is consistent with their biological development. A child born in a poor or low-income household will not have the same opportunities as a child born in a rich or high-income household. The Social Philochrony proposes a greater assessment of study and work time. Rulers must worry more about a better preparation of their citizens so that they can enter the labor market more easily. Primary (compulsory), secondary and university education must be free. In underdeveloped countries, a lot of money is spent on projects that do not benefit the majority. The UN must have the power to remove a tyrant ruler and establish free elections.

The Social Philochrony does not propose the implementation of a socialist system, but the opportunity for people to evolve socially.

The Social Philochrony proposes the elimination of prejudices in society because they lead to discrimination. People should not be judged by their skin color, sex, religion, ethnicity, political ideology, etc.

Elvis Sibilia

MANIFESTATIONS OF THE TIME PASS

We realize the passage of time in:

1- The continuous occurrence of changes (duration). For example: listen to a song, travel by train or plane, the flow of a river, etc.
2- The transformation of beings (evolution). For example: living things go through different stages in their development until their death.
3- The advance of hours (clock).
4- The succession of days and years.

There was an era when man did not have the division of the day into hours. He realized the passage of time through the succession of days and years and the development of living beings.

Time is not the cause of changes, they come with time, they are time itself. Time = change-interval. Change is transformed into interval giving rise to time.

Elvis Sibilia

THE PRINCIPLE OF FREEDOM

Space is the freedom of bodies and particles to move in one, two or three directions. Particles seem to move in two directions at once.

Time is the freedom of changes or phenomena to exist, change or evolve continuously in one direction. The principle of freedom explains the arrow of time.

The principle of freedom is inviolable. No body can move in four directions and no change can return to its previous state. For example, a fried egg does not return to compose or a mature banana does not return to green.

The double continuity or C2 considers that time is a continuous variable that increases continuously due to the change.

T:C2 reads T is C2. T is time and C is change.

Elvis Sibilia

THE PHILOCHROANALYSIS

The philochroanalysis is the procedure that explains the different parts of the concept of time. Time is the duration of things (1), between a start and an end (2), in a certain physical state or situation (3).

1- Duration or becoming = continuous succession of a phenomenon. It is perceptible.

2- Magnitude or amount of time. It is imperceptible, but measurable and intelligible. We understand, for example, the difference between 10 minutes and one minute (the unit). We understand the difference between one year (the unit) and 100 years.

3- It is the material basis of time.

Elvis Sibilia

THE PRINCIPLE OF DESAGREEMENT OF THE NOW

Dialogue in a science forum.

- Asexperia (Elvis Sibilia) says: Guys, everything that the Theory of relativity predicts occurs in the present, there is only one now. We have two clocks (one in space and one on Earth) with different times and both are in the present.

- A forist answers: That is false. There is no universal "now"...that is covered by SR and simultaneity. Different frames of references will always disagree on whether two event are simultaneous. We can never see anything as it is "Now".

- Asexperia answers: The principle of the disagreement of the now considers that two observers, one of them at rest and another in movement, do not agree on whether two events are simultaneous or successive. The disagreement is in the now, in the present. The events take a back seat. Relativity is a theory of disagreement.

Elvis Sibilia

THE MEASURE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL MAGNITUDES

To measure is comparing a magnitude (M) with the corresponding unit (u) to determine how many times M contains u.

1- Weight is measured by balancing two forces of opposite senses.

2- Length is measured by sliding a graduated tape over the object.

3- Temperature is measured by the expansion or contraction of a liquid (mercury or alcohol) enclosed in a graduated glass tube.

4- Time is measured by counting equal intervals of an uniform periodic movement and therefore predictable. In a clock of hands the minute hand executes, in an hour, a complete return. One hour, for example, is not a measure of movement, but of its duration. The measures of movement are distance and speed. Clocks count time intervals.

Elvis Sibilia

PHILOCHRONY: FORMAL SCIENCE

The formal sciences are those that use forms or mental structures to explain reality. These forms can be: numbers, symbols and letters. Philochrony can not be an empirical science because time is imperceptible or not observable directly. We know time by the sequential changes that things experience.

Philochrony helps to study time of:

1- Definitions (real time and sensory time),
2- The measurement of time (clocks, periodic intervals),
3- The past (memory) and the future (imagination). The past and the future are mental structures that help us explain time.
4- The sequential activity occurred or SAO, which is established by the experience of the subject. For example, in one hour there is a known SAO and we can differentiate it from the SAO of two hours.

Other formal sciences are: Mathematics and Logic.

--------- ccp ---------->
  past            future
ccp = changeable continuous present (real time)

Elvis Sibilia

TIME: CHANGEABLE CONTINUOUS PRESENT

Humanity has been divided in opinion about the existence of time. Is there or is not time? For some, time does not exist because the past and the future do not exist. For others, time exists based on the measurement of time. However both groups have half truth.

Philochrony leave from the definition of real time: it is the duration of things, between a start and an end, in a particular physical state or situation.

   duration
s -----------> e

1) Clocks measure time, the continuity of things in the present.

2) Time does not need the past nor the future to exist.

3) We use the ideas of the past and the future to organize our lives.

In conclusion, time exists in a changeable continuous present.

Elvis Sibilia

THE TIME-LIGHT ANALOGY

In the time-light analogy:
- The real time is similar to light (objective).
- The sensory time is similar to color (subjective).

The real time is the duration or permanence of things in a certain state or situation. The sensory time is the continuous succession of irreversible moments that goes from the past to the future. Moment is a mathematical concept, the time point. In the real time things happen sequentially. The real time flows in things (objects and phenomena). The real time flows in clocks, in the movements of planets and stars, in the life of a person (age), in an airplane in flight, in a song, etc. The clocks time is uniform and periodic.

The real time is universal and the sensory time is particular (of subject).
The cosmic time starts with the big bang and continues with the expansion of the universe.

Elvis Sibilia

THE REALITY OF TIME

We perceive time as the continuous succession of irreversible moments that goes from the past to the future. Moment is a mathematical concept, the time point. Actually time is the duration or permanence of things in a certain state or position. The states can be: in motion, at rest, alive, waiting, in existence, etc.

The time interval consists of a beginning and an end, a before and after. The time states are: past, present and future. We have an assistant to verify  time: the chromnesia.

In Philochrony there are a perceptual concept and a real concept of time. As time is magnitive (objective, measurable and imperceptible) and C2 (double continuity) people form their own idea of time.

Elvis Sibilia

THE DOUBLE CONTINUITY (C2) OF TIME

The types of variables are: qualitative and quantitative. The qualitative ones can be: nominal and ordinal. The quantitative ones can be: discrete and continuous. The discrete variables take a finite number of values. The continuous variables take an infinite number of values. Examples of discrete variables are: the number of siblings of a person, the number of chairs in a room, the number of planets in the solar system, etc. The continuous variables are those that can be measured. For example: length (3.5 m), mass (9.2 kg), temperature (27.6 'C) and time (31.3 s). But time is not only continuous by taking infinite values, but by increasing in value continually. That is why this characteristic of time is represented by C2 (C is continuity, 2 is double).

A time interval (duration) can be 15.6 minutes, but time never stops. C2 is the proof that time passes or flows.

Elvis Sibilia

REASONING THAT PROVES THE EXISTENCE OF TIME

- Physics is the science of measures that use a number and a unit.

- Time can be measured by clocks.

- Therefore, time is a physical entity.

To think that time does not exist or is an illusion, is an absurd and illogical idea.

Time is an exhaustible and non-renewable resource.

Elvis Sibilia

THE TIME ARROW

1- Moments are irreversible.

2- Some irreversible changes are: the age of a person, a tree or a star.

3- In Quantum Mechanics we can find reversible changes.

We must differentiate between moments (irreversible) and changes (reversible or irreversible). The time arrow refers to moments, not changes. Therefore, time (natural) is the continuous succession of irreversible moments that goes from the past to the future. Time marks the rhythm of changes or movements.

a) pt < pm < ft (time increases continuously). True.

b) pt > pm > ft (time decreases). False.

pt is past time
pm is present moment
ft is future time

Elvis Sibilia

THE PRINCIPLE OF CERTAINTY ARISES FROM THE AXIOMS OF PHILOCHRONY

1- Time is the continuous succession of irreversible moments that goes from the past to the future. --->

2- Duration is the time interval and comprises a beginning and an end.
-- b ------- e --->

3- The time of uniform and periodic rhythm (mathematical) is taken as a reference to measure the duration of events.

4- Chromnesia is the certainty that there are past events and there will be future events.

5- Time is magnitive, that is, objective, measurable and imperceptible.

The statement: Past does not exist and future is uncertain, it is true, but at the same time it denies the events of the past and makes people not plan for the future.

By means of chromnesia or philochron certainty, we think, for example, that today is Saturday and tomorrow will be Sunday, the Sun will rise at a certain time and it will be set at another time.

Elvis Sibilia

HARD, SOFT AND MIXED MAGNITUDES

A magnitude is the property of beings that can be measured. The hard magnitude is one that resists change. For example: length, mass, inertia, gravity, etc. The soft magnitude is one that puts little resistance to change. For example: time, temperature, acceleration, etc. Mixed magnitudes are those that are composed of a hard and a soft magnitude. For example: speed, force, etc.

Time is a soft magnitude because it increases continuously in value. The temperature is a soft magnitude because it can increase or decrease in value. Acceleration is the increase or decrease of speed.

Formulas
Force of gravity: F = G (m1.m2 / d∧2)
Speed: S = d / t
Force: F = ma

Elvis Sibilia

THE TIME TRAIN

The time train (TT) is the metaphor that explains the nature of time.

1- The TT only has one locomotive (it only travels in one direction).
2- Tracks of TT are the dimension of time (past and future).
3- The TT does not have exterior view (there is no reference point).
4- All changes occur inside of the TT.
5- The TT does not make stops (time is continuous).

We all travel on the time train.

Elvis Sibilia

THE DIMENSION OF TIME AND EVENTS

A dimension (in Geometry) is the direction in which a body can move in space or an event happens in time. One hour into the future is real, but without known events. One hour to the past is real, but events do not exist anymore. Time exists in the future and in the past, but events only exist in the present. We know that tomorrow will occur inexorably (dimension), but we do not know what events will occur. If we travel to the past or to the future, we would cease to exist. Because of this it is not possible to travel in time. In clocks we see a periodic phenomenon that occurs in the present.

Isaac Newton said: "Time is like an invisible river in which everything happens." The invisible river is the dimension of time.

In conclusion, time is composed for a dimension (real) and events occur in it.

EVENTS
---------------p-------------- > dimension of time
      past              future
p is present

Elvis Sibilia

WHY TIME IS MAGNITIVE?

Why time is magnitive?

I have talked a lot about the magnitive time, but I have not answered the previous question. First, time is measurable because you can accurately divide an interval into equal parts. Second, time is objective because events have a beginning and an end independent of the subject. Third, time is imperceptible because intervals are sequential. We only see a moment at a time.

Elvis Sibilia

PROPERTY OF MATTER PROLONGATION

Matter has the property of prolonging itself in space (extension) and of prolonging its existence (time). Matter extends in the three directions of space: vertical, horizontal and transverse. Elasticity is the property of some bodies that regain their extension and primitive figures as soon as the action that altered them ceases. Other extensible objects are: an antenna, a cane and a table.

Time is the continuous and irreversible prolongation of the changes or phenomena that go from the past to the future. Duration is the measure of time. Examples of time are: the prolongation of the day (time), the prolongation of the year (date), the prolongation of the life of a person or of any natural being (age), etc.

The expansion of the universe in space is due to the property of prolongation of matter.

Elvis Sibilia

THE GOAL OF PHILOCHRONY

Time is a physical magnitude that affects all reality, but we do not have a specific sense to perceive the intervals. This makes each person get a different idea about the nature of time. There is no consensus on what time is.

For Paul Davies, a third of thinkers believe that time does not exist, another third believes time exists and the other third has doubts.

The goal of Philochrony is to achieve the unification of opinions on the nature of time. The Principle of magnitivity complies with this purpose.

Elvis Sibilia

THE PRINCIPLE OF MAGNITIVITY

The principle of magnitivity refers to the magnitive time, that is, the existing, measurable, flowing, sequential and non-observable time. Magnitive time is reached by intuition.

The following diagram represents two different states (before and after) of the same phenomenon:
B: --->
A: ------------>

The arrow indicates the progress of the phenomenon.
A contains B.
In B the arrow is passed in relation to the arrow in A.
In A the arrow may be present or future in relation to the arrow in B.

The principle of magnitivity arises from the definition of time: it is the continuous succession of changes or phenomena that go from the past to the future. In this definition, succession is the action of the verb happen.

The principle of magnitivity governs all the processes of nature: physical, chemical, biological, historical, etc.

Elvis Sibilia

THE TIME CODE

The time code is a binary code that represents the passage of time.

N - 1111111  (it is)
A -- 0000000 (it is not)

N is now.
A is after.
The ones are moments.
The zeros are past moments,
A one (1) and a zero (0) are simultaneous, except at the beginning and at the end of the interval.

When a moment is (1) the next one is no longer (0). The last zero corresponds to the last moment.

On the other hand, of the four forms of time, there are three that are magnitive. Only psychological time is not magnitive, because it is subjective and it is not measurable. But all forms of time meet its general definition: the continuous succession of irreversible changes.

Elvis Sibilia

THEORY OF MULTIPLE TIMES 2

Where and how do they manifest each of the times?

1- In reality we find events with variable or irregular rhythm, such as the current of a river, the flight of birds or listen to a song.

2- Mathematical time is a uniform and periodic rhythm, and is taken as a reference to measure the events duration. Clocks are an example of mathematical time. Clocks and calendars are based on periodic phenomena, such as the movements of the Earth.

3- Relative time is affected by speed or gravity. According to the Theory of relativity, in a ship traveling at a speed close to c, time dilates in relation to an observer who remains on Earth.

4- In psychological time each person has a different idea of the events duration. Psychological time is influenced by people's emotions and beliefs. It is the subjective time.

Elvis Sibilia

THEORY OF MULTIPLE TIMES 1

The theory of multiple times considers the existence of four times: irregular time, mathematical time (t in equations), psychological time and relative time. In general, time is the continuous succession of irreversible changes. Time is the continuity of movement. In reality we find events with variable or irregular rhythm, such as the current of a river or the flight of birds. The mathematical time has uniform and periodic rhythm, and is taken as reference to measure the duration of the events. Clocks are an example of mathematical time. The relative time is affected by speed or gravity.

In psychological time each person has a different idea of ​​the duration of the events. Psychological time is influenced by emotions. A person who enjoys a pleasant experience will find that time flies. On the other hand, a person who is going through a difficult situation will find that time slows down.

Some authors conceive time considering only one of the forms of manifestation. For example, for Julian Barbour, time is an illusion, changes do not exist. Henry Bergson rejected mathematical time. For David Eagleman, time is invented by the brain.

HOW DO WE MEASURE TIME?

A body can be at rest or moving depending on the frame of reference that is chosen. If the observer is at rest or moves with constant velocity, it is said to be an inertial frame of reference. If the movement of the observer is accelerated, it is said to be a non-inertial frame of reference.

In the case of time, it flows inexorably; there is no case where time seems to be stopped. As I have pointed out in another post, the center in the measure of time is not the observer (in Philochrony), but a fixed moment in the past called cut or beginning. All observers move away from a previously selected beginning. Although we are still, we keep moving inexorably away from the cut or beginning.

Philochron explanation:

1- We see changes or becoming (we age).
2- Time is defined by intuition (magnitive).
3- We measure time by relating two sequential moments, one the beginning (previous) and the other the end (later). The measure of time is duration.
4- Time is not the succession of changes as some believe. The succession of changes is movement. See the Philochron definition of time.

In the philochron explanation: we see, intuit and relate.

THE BEGINNING AS A CENTER IN PHILOCHRONY

Immanuel Kant placed the subject instead of the object as the center of knowledge. He leaves from the premise that reality is unknowable and that the subject constructs the phenomena.

In Philochrony, the passage of time produces the sensation of a sequential distancing of the observer with respect to a fixed moment in the past (cut or beginning). In time, the observer moves away with the other objects.

In Physics, the observer is placed as a center in the study of time, and in everything related to movement. In Philochrony, the beginning is placed as a center in the study of time. The beginning does not exist anymore, but there is a record that it was real.

One hour ago means that I've been away an hour since the beginning of that interval.

Graphically:
-----b----------o--------> time
b is the beginning, o is the observer

EVOLUTION OF THE CONCEPT TIME IN PHILOCHRONY

1- Time is the continuous succession of irreversible moments.
2- Time is the dimension of becoming and goes from the beginning to the end of events.
3- Time is the relation between two sequential states in becoming. Becoming flows, time cuts it. For example, 12 midnight is a cut.
4- Time is the flowing interval between two asimultaneous moments.
5- Time is the becoming elapsed between two sequential moments (interval).
6- Time is the continuous succession of fleeting moments product of movement. It is the change of changes. The Sibilia's law appears.
7- Time is the continuous succession with constant rhythm of fleeting moments product of the movement.

The ancient civilizations realized that time passed periodically and with constant rhythm. They attributed these characteristics of time to gods. Clocks represent the passage of time, since this is imperceptible (magnitive). The cube represents space.

In clocks we only see a periodic physical phenomenon with constant rhythm. This is what represents time.

Elvis Sibilia

IS TIME ABSOLUTE OR RELATIVE?

The rhythm of time is constant and absolute, second to second. A second is the approximation of a fleeting moment. Although time is the product of movement (the Sibilia's Law), its rhythm does not depend on it. High speed affects movement, but not the rhythm of time. Speed and gravity affect the operation of clocks (duration), but time does not change its rhythm.

Duration is relative. The permanence of beings over time increases with speed and gravity. In the case of the paradox of the twins, the brother who travels to space at a speed close to c will have a longer life (age) than that of his brother who remains on Earth.

Time (absolute) is a product of movement and its measure is duration (relative). Philochrony unifies the classical time with the relative time.

THE MAGNITIVE CHANGE, DURATION AND CUBITY

1- Becoming is the inherent property of matter and bodies of experiencing sequential changes. Becoming is movement.

2 - Time is the continuous succession of fleeting moments product of movement. It is the change of changes. Time is common to all changes. In a clock we observe a physical change that records the elapsed time. Time is the magnitive change.

3- Duration is the permanence of things in time. Duration is limited time. In eternity, there is no duration, only time.

Space can be: sidereal, open and closed (cubity). Cubity is the limited space. Cubity is to the space what duration to time.

TIME: INVISIBLE PHENOMENON

For Isaac Newton "time is like an invisible river in which everything happens". What Newton wanted to say is that time is imperceptible.

Think of a song. This has a beginning, a duration and an end. While listening to it, we perceive the continuous succession of musical tones and intuit that along with these changes there are also fleeting moments. In time, invisible does not mean that there is nothing, but that there is something silent or black.

Time is represented by the symbology: i mc >, which means the magnitive change between a beginning and the flowing present (arrow).

Zero represents a vacuum with a presence. Time is represented by two presences which are linked by continuity.

THE RHYTHM OF TIME

The rhythm of time is constant at low speeds, second to second. A second is the approximation of a fleeting moment. In the Theory of relativity, time has a variable rhythm, its pace is slower at speeds close to c. We do not perceive moments nor their succession (magnitive time).

The influence of time passage in reality is:

1- Material deterioration
2- Aging
3- The replacement of the old things for the new ones

THE SIBILIA'S LAW CONFIRMS THAT TIME IS MAGNITIVE

The magnitive time is: objective, imperceptible and measurable.

The Sibilia's law: Time is an epiphenomenon of motion.

Time is objective and measurable because it is the product of motion.

Time is imperceptible because it is an epiphenomenon.

With no motion, no time.

Elvis Sibilia

THE SIBILIA'S LAW

The Sibilia's law is the fundamental law of Philochroniy. This law states that time (continuous succession of fleeting moments) is an epiphenomenon of the motion registered (changes) in a specific support. In abbreviated form T / mr @ s.

1- The Earth is the main support for humans.

2- The organism is the support for age or life time.

3- All bodies are support of motion.

Formulas of the motion:

- In Dynamics: F = ma

- In Kinematics: S = d / t

- In Philochrony: T / mr @ s

GENONYMOUS TERMS IN PHILOCHRONY

The word genonymous comes from Greek genesis (origin) and onoma (name). Genonymous terms are those that are related because some contain the previous one in its definition.

1- Becoming is the continuous succession of irreversible moments.

2- Time is the becoming passed (BP) between two sequential moments (interval). The greater the BP, the greater the interval.

3- Duration is the permanence of things in time.
