• When thinking about virtual time, I often come across the barrier of Physical time.

    • It’s because we’re trying to eliminate the constraints of physical time in our experiences.
  • I want to influence the past from the future of Physical time.

    • We need to reverse causality.
    • Specifically, I want to reverse the order of the experience where the influencer, through their free will, influences the influenced and the influenced receives the influence.
      • If we only care about the believability of either the influencer or the influenced, it’s easy.
        • Since we can freely fabricate the other side, it’s entirely possible to pretend that the causality has been reversed.
      • It becomes difficult when we care about both sides.
  • What should we do?

    • First, let someone other than the original influencer (such as a machine or a third party) give the influenced an influence X.
    • Then, let the influencer, through their free will, give the influenced the influence X in the experience.
      • Make it seem like it’s their free will.
  • Is it possible to do something like The Tight Game?

    • I want to try it with a magic trick where you choose a card.
  • In an environment where an enormous amount of messages are flying around anonymously,

    • Let’s mix in some automatically generated messages.
    • If a sent message happens to be one that was automatically generated and sent from the past, it creates an experience of influencing the past from the future.
  • This is challenging if the messages can be anything in natural language, but it should be easier in an environment with limited types of messages.

    • (axokxi) Like rock-paper-scissors.
    • For example, rock-paper-scissors seems to require sharing and synchronizing spacetime as a prerequisite, but it should be possible even asynchronously. I want to break it down and rethink it from that level.

      • Interesting! (tkgshn)(tkgshn)(tkgshn)(tkgshn)
      • (/emoji/twitter) Space affects the quality of how we use time, but space is not essential. So, it’s better to abstract it to that extent and reconsider remote work and gathering.
