Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal

INSIGHT

Causal Time

  • Sara Walker views time not as linear clock time, but as causal time, reflecting the complex, non-linear nature of the world.
  • She points out that throughout physics history, every theory effectively invents its own concept of time, often influenced by the culture and technology of its period.
  • Walker connects Newtonian time to the clockwork universe and suggests that causal time arises from the combinatorial complexity we experience.
