In the framework of complex dynamical systems we can view the world at the beginning of this century as loosely connected with clusters of highly complex trouble spots and the number of people with a global perspective and fast connections was very small. Today we have multiple systems of global information exchange together with impressive data and information systems accessible for a rapidly growing number of people. We claim that the a global computer network will have a much more dramatic impact on global issues than other networks of global communication systems like television or telephone. In the first case we obtain many features that we can associate with the development of biological brains whereas in the two latter cases many essential features are missing. The most relevant one is the creation of the analog of cell assemblies.

Scientists propose that clocks measure the numerical order of material change in space, where space is a fundamental entity; time itself is not a fundamental physical entity.

They propose to replace these concepts of time with a view that corresponds more accurately to the physical world: time as a measure of the numerical order of change.

“Newton theory on absolute time is not falsifiable, you cannot prove it or disprove it, you have to believe in it,” Sorli said. “The theory of time as the fourth dimension of space is falsifiable and in our last article we prove there are strong indications that it might be wrong. On the basis of experimental data, time is what we measure with clocks: with clocks we measure the numerical order of material change, i.e., motion in space.”
