When is now? Seems like a pretty simple question… just look at your watch. But do you and I share the same “now”? Let’s journey from Einstein’s thought experiments about relativity to cutting edge neuroscience research to try and answer that question.

Fun fact, the "view from nowhen" was believed by our ancestors to be the view that departed spirits had, which is why the ancients would ask the dead for advice and predictions about the future, since the greeks/romans believed them to be outside of time.

According to general relativity, everything IS happening all at once (sort of). Regardless, to Einstein, next Wednesday at Pike's Peek was another point in space-time much like where you are, right here, right now, but also much like last Thursday in Dubai. All exist 'concurrently' within the fabric of space-time. Our inability to perceive more than three plus dimensions indicates that being able to do so would not, up to this point, make us significantly more 'fit'. Unless we are, of course, at the cusp of when having such perception may be essential.

Physicist Carlo Rovelli has a super interesting paper called “Neither Presentism nor Eternalism” that’s worth checking out if you’re interested in this stuff. He explains that while traditional presentism doesn’t make any sense with our modern understanding of physics, the “block universe” of eternalism isn’t the only philosophical alternative. It really comes down to what you truly mean by “present” and the ontological significance you apply to the idea of “reference frames.” Regardless of how you like to conceptualize time, I find his discussion to be very dope indeed 😎

A certain Bill Wurtz once said: A long time ago, (actually never), and also now, nothing is nowhere. When? Never. Makes sense right? 😁

So we all live in the "now" the presence, but if we talk about the "now" we always talk about either the past or the future. So the "now" you live in is always, but the "now" we use to communicate is never.

Now is what is in between what is about to happen and what just happened. @ 6:40 I'm not sure if your model is right. You can not add speed to light but the light is moving with the train with means it moving faster than the speed of light to . The right model the center of propagation of the light should stay where the guy on the station is not move along with the train. This means that both observers would see the light reaching the back of the train first.

This circle dot experiment is something i notice almost every day as an animator. For me i see it like when we process the movement of things like the ring and then see the dot for such a short amount of time, our brains interlace it and it ends up like this

Man, i wish the school taught me about Einstein's Relativity this way. Do I understand this completely? No. I still need time to process the information. But it's a lot understandable than school's lesson. And more importantly, this is way more interesting. Interest makes motivation. That's what school often forgets.
