only two dimensional, and then the third dimension is time. so, think of a loaf of bread. the time axis is along the length of the loaf and space are the individual slices. the block universe says that it s not just the present time that exists. the past hasn t gone and been forgotten and the future hasn t yet to be decided. in the block universe, all times co exist. they re just different slices of the loaf. there is no universal present moment. in this scenario, it doesn t matter which of the domino simulations i pick because every single frame of that animation already exists and will exist forever. there can only ever be one outcome. we ve done many, many experiments over the last century since einstein s theory of relativity and we know this is really the case. if the future already exists if it s already set as it were even though we haven t experienced it yet then that suggests that we have no free will. is that not a bit dangerous to go
of information will shape the decisions i make. so, i think that evolution created a whole new kind of physical system which we call life which is rooted in patterns of energy triggering patterns of energy and paramount to that is our consciousness which is, ultimately, a kind of pattern of information realised in the brain that allows us to model the world and ourselves in it. but what if our future already exists? in what way then are the choices we make ever truly free? the block universe is an idea in physics that developed pretty soon after einstein came up with his special theory of relativity where he said that time and space have to be unified. you can t talk about three dimensional space and one dimensional time as though they re separate things. they re part of one four dimensional space time. so, the block universe isa bit like. imagine space was only flat

head and stuff like that, said, yeah, that s him. his body was dismembered. why was the body you left that part out. yeah. i kind of glossed over that. okay. well, go back. all right. well, after the stabbing had occurred, you know, my brother-in-law asked, he said, do we have an ax, and i said, no. we used to have one in the garage. so we went out there, and he picked out a crosscut saw and a pruning saw. he said, those will do. i m like, i have no idea what s going on at this time. and so we go back in there, and he dismembers the body. how? where? head, arm, arm, torso, leg, leg. where?
