ADJUSTMENT SCIENCES

ADJUSTMENT SCIENCES

The adjustment is the union of several pieces or elements that fit perfectly together.

..CIENCE ................ PURPOSE
Psychology .......... personal adjustment
Logic ................... reason adjustment
Philochrony ......... adjustment of chromnesia*
Mechanics ........... adjustment of the progress of a car
Watchmaking ...... clocks adjustment

* The chromnesia is the mental clock that allows us:

a) Relate several time intervals.
b) Relate several time uses.
c) Visualize or understand the nature of time.

Computer science is the responsible for the adjustment of programs in a system of computers.

Ethics is responsable for the adjustment of criminals and inmoral people.

Psychology, Logic, Philochrony and Ethics are sciences 
of the human adjustment.

Mechanics, Clockmaking and Computer science are sciences
of the technological adjustment.

PROVING THAT TIME IS MAGNITIVE

PROVING THAT TIME IS MAGNITIVE (EXISTS)

1- Think about an hourglass.

2- The fall of the grains of sand is becoming, which is perceptible sequentially.

3- Between the beginning and the end of the sand fall there is a time interval or duration. This interval is objective, but imperceptible because we only see one moment at a time. Time is composed of non-coexistent moments.

4- We can use the movement of the sand as a unit of measurement because it is periodic and with uniform velocity.

5- We can also use a chronometer to determine the duration of the clock.


6- In 4 and 5 we noticed that we can use patterns to quantify time.

7- Therefore, time is magnitive, that is, objective, imperceptible and measurable.

PHILOCHRONY IS THE EIGHTH ART

PHILOCHRONY IS THE EIGHTH ART

The Fine Arts are classified in:

SPACE (they can be seen and touched, occupy a place in space):

Architecture, Sculpture, Painting (drawing)

TEMPORARY (they can not be seen or touched (they only last the moment they are appreciated):

Literature (poetry, theater), Music and Philocrony

MIXED (they are a mixture of the qualities of spatial and temporal):

Dance, Cinema


The philocron person not only sees the time on the clock, but also
he delights in the rhythm and periodicity of this valuable instrument.

Periodic phenomena are a source of beauty for Philochrony.

THE PHILOCHRON LINE OR PHILOCHRONY

THE PHILOCHRON LINE OR PHILOCHRONY

               duration
------- b ------------ e -------> time or becoming

b = beginning
e = end

The past has already happened.
The future hasn't occurred.
The present is a mnemonic illusion.
Only the philochrony is real (the relation between two events).

THE MEASURE OF TIME

THE MEASURE OF TIME

To measure time, two tools are required:

1- A periodic phenomenon, like the movements of the Earth and clocks.
2- The chromnesia or temporary memory.

With no chromnesia we would only think of the present. Because of chromnesia, older people think in decades or even centuries. But Physics only considers the use of clocks.

In the chromnesia we relate the different units and periods of time.

We measure the past time (duration) and we project this measure into the future.

The most accurate clocks would not be useful if we did not have chromnesia.

In the others magnitudes (length, temperature, mass, etc,) only is required that the observer verifies the measure (in the instrument).

THE FUNDAMENTAL LAW OF PHILOCHRONY

THE FUNDAMENTAL LAW OF PHILOCHRONY

The becoming-time duality

This law arises from the philochron table.

.... ELEMENT ..... PROPERTY ....... MAGNITUDE
... space ............ extension ........ length, area, volume
... becoming ...... time ................ duration

- Becoming is the continuous succession of irreversible moments and flows from the beginning to the end.
- Time is the interval between two sequentail moments. The moments are not coexistent. This quality of non-coexistence makes many think that time does not exist or is an illusion.
- Duration is the measure of time. Synonyms of duration are: period, age and permanence.
- Space (coexistence) and time are inextricably linked.

We perceive becoming, for example, listening a song, but we have a mathematical idea of time (magnitive).

POSTULATES OF THE PHILOCHRONY

POSTULATES OF THE PHILOCHRONY

First: In time there is only one frame of reference. 

Duration is measured with respect a moment in the past.
All observers are in the present. There is no observer in
the past or in the future who has a different measure.

Second: Speed affects clocks, not time.

A change in time is, for example, 10 seconds in the past or
10 seconds into the future. Clocks of the GPS are always in the present.

Third: The speed doesn't affect length.

The speed affects the perception of the relative observer.
