What is time? Time is a computational phenomenon. 00:00:03.120 |
Time is the progressive change of the network. 00:00:06.520 |
One particle touches another one, touches another one, 00:00:08.880 |
this thing changes this one, this changes this one. 00:00:11.360 |
Sounds to me like you're describing your cellular automata. 00:00:15.040 |
Yes, it's very much like that. It's a computational process. 00:00:17.960 |
And it happens to be operating on these hypergraphs 00:00:20.840 |
rather than just lines of black and white cells. 00:00:23.000 |
So the universe itself is a computer... - Yes. 00:00:28.400 |
Yes, well, I don't know whether you'd call it an exercise, but... 00:00:35.120 |
And time is the progress of that computation. - Yes. 00:00:37.920 |
And that is what people mean when they say, "Are we living in a simulation?"
