by Alex M. Vikoulov  Summary: Species-specific timescales illustrate the profound diversity in temporal perception across biological and post-biological entities, from rapid-reacting insects to humans to hyperintelligent syntellects, suggesting that subjective time is a function of cognitive architecture and may eventually converge through technological means, leading to novel forms of interspecies communication and a redefinition of reality itself.
The following is the excerpt from Temporal Mechanics: D-Theory as a Critical Upgrade to Our Understanding of the Nature of Time (Alex M. Vikoulov, 2025):

by Alex M. Vikoulov  "Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire." —Jorge Luis Borges Have you ever questioned the deep nature of time? While some physicists argue that time is just an illusion, dismissing it outright contradicts our lived experience. In my latest work, Temporal Mechanics: D-Theory as a Critical Upgrade to Our Understanding of the Nature of Time (2025), I explore how time is deeply rooted in the computational nature of reality and information processing by conscious systems. This paper tackles why the "now" is all we have. In the absence of observers, the cosmic arrow of time doesn't exist. This statement is not merely philosophical; it is a profound implication of the problem of time in physics. In standard quantum mechanics, time is an external parameter, a backdrop against which events unfold. However, in quantum gravity and the Wheeler-DeWitt equation, the problem of time emerges because there is no preferred universal time variable—only a timeless wavefunction of the universe. The flow of time, as we experience it, arises not from any fundamental law but from the interaction between observers and the informational structure of reality. by Alex M. Vikoulov  “Mathematics is the language in which God has written the universe.” — Galileo Galilei Have you ever wondered why the universe, with its sprawling galaxies and incomprehensible complexity, is so fine-tuned, structured and resolutely rule-based? Imagine for a moment that beneath the seemingly chaotic surface lies a perfect digital symmetry, a "universal operating system" (OS) underpinning all existence. This is not just a metaphor—it is the crux of what I have come to describe as the OS axiom within my broader Cybernetic Theory of Mind. Today, I’d like to explore this idea with you, especially as it relates to one of my most pivotal concepts: the Omega Singularity.
Temporal Mechanics Redefined: The Emergent Nature of Time and Its Implications for Reality12/28/2024 by Alex M. Vikoulov  "Time is what prevents everything from happening at once." – John Archibald Wheeler What if our understanding of time as a linear sequence of events is merely an illusion created by the brain's processing of reality? Could time itself be an emergent phenomenon, arising from the complex interplay of quantum mechanics, relativity, and consciousness? How might the brain's multidimensional computations, reflecting patterns found in the universe, reveal a deeper connection between mind and cosmos? Is it possible that advancements in our understanding of temporal mechanics could one day make time travel a practical reality rather than a theoretical concept? Could Quantum AI and Reversible Quantum Computing provide the tools to simulate, manipulate, and even reshape the flow of time, offering practical applications of D-Theory that bridge the gap between theoretical physics and transformative technologies? These profound questions lie at the heart of Temporal Mechanics: D-Theory as a Critical Upgrade to Our Understanding of the Nature of Time, my 2025 paper and book. D-Theory, also referred to as Quantum Temporal Mechanics, Digital Presentism, and D-Series, challenges conventional views of time as a fixed, universal backdrop to reality and instead redefines it as a dynamic interplay between the mind and the cosmos.
by Alex M. Vikoulov  "Time is not a thing that exists and passes, but an act that we perform and a force that we exert." — Thomas Mann Time, as one of the most enigmatic aspects of human experience, has long been a subject of fascination and study across disciplines. From physicists grappling with the intricacies of spacetime to philosophers pondering its subjective nature, time continues to challenge our understanding. Yet, recent developments in neuroscience, quantum physics, and consciousness studies invite us to reconsider the very foundations of temporal mechanics. Instead of treating time as an immutable backdrop to reality, these insights suggest a far more dynamic and interconnected role for time, consciousness, and the fabric of the universe itself. This exploration of temporal mechanics through the lens of the D-Theory of Time seeks to unravel these connections and place consciousness at the heart of temporal reality. by Alex M. Vikoulov  "For each life...there is a universe that involves 'spheres of reality.' .... Our planet is composed of billions of spheres of reality, and internal/external confluence." ―Robert Lanza Unlike a single atom or molecule, an individual lifeform—while part of a species—exists as a distinct "digital" entity. where entangled micro-states are measured at the atomic and molecular levels. Throughout its lifespan, it operates within its own dimensional framework, unfolding dynamic patterns guided by choice and directed toward its ongoing self-preservation. This unique capacity for self-direction and decision-making sets living beings apart from inanimate matter. by Alex M. Vikoulov  “In a sense, Nature has been continually computing the ‘next state’ of the Universe for billions of years; all we have to do — and actually all we can do — is ‘hitch a ride’ on this huge ongoing [quantum] computation.” —Tommaso Toffoli In the fascinating intersection of quantum computing and the human experience of time, lies a groundbreaking theory that challenges our conventional narratives: the D-Theory of Time. This theory proposes a revolutionary perspective on time not as fundamental but as an emergent phenomenon arising from the quantum mechanical fabric of the universe.
In my upcoming book with a working title Cybernetic Theory, the entire section is dedicated to the physics of time, where we discuss the D-Theory of Time, predicated or reversible quantum computing at large, which represents a novel framework that challenges our conventional understanding of time and computing. Here, we explore the foundational principles of the D-Theory of Time, its implications for reversible quantum computing, and how it could potentially revolutionize our approach to computing, information processing, and our understanding of the universe. |

A quote on the go"When I woke up one morning I got poetically epiphanized: To us, our dreams at night feel “oh so real” when inside them but they are what they are - dreams against the backdrop of daily reality. Our daily reality is like nightly dreams against the backdrop of the larger reality. This is something we all know deep down to be true... The question then becomes how to "lucidify" this dream of reality?"— Alex M. Vikoulov Public Forums
