Physical Time as Human Time

TL;DR

This paper argues that physical time and human perception of time are compatible, proposing that quantum processes and spacetime emergence support a dynamic view of time consistent with human experience.

Contribution

It challenges the standard

Findings

Physical theory can accommodate a genuine flow of time.

Quantum processes are linked to spacetime emergence.

Supports a dynamic view of time consistent with human perception.

Abstract

I dissent from the standard assertion of a "Two Times Problem," in which physical time is taken as being at odds with the human sense of a "flow of time." I provide a brief overview of the case to be made for the contrary view: namely, that physical theory is indeed consistent with a genuine temporal dynamism that takes into account the quantum level in connection with spacetime emergence, the latter being supervenient on specific quantum processes.
