ABSTRACT
Whenever you think about time, Jaynes insists, you cannot help but imagine events as tangible objects arranged in physical space. This holds true whether you’re thinking on the grand scale of centuries or your day-to-day life. Take a moment to introspect on your past, present, and future: Does it appear in your mind’s eye as movement across a landscape or line? Do you think back to breakfast this morning and look forward to tomorrow’s yoga class?
