Abstract
This paper explains how our concept of time has to be changed once we see time not as something given and exists, but as something being created through punctuation and description. Since act of punctuation and rhythms are the basis of all time, it then becomes possible to construct a time theory according to this principle. The reason we see time as narrative is that we organize our world and environment with the way in which we describe the reality. The phenomenon of synchronicity is observed not only in human and biological arenas but also physical arenas, such as synchronizing pendulums. Using Ellis McTaggart’s well-known series of time, this paper argues that a new series of time, the E series, can emerge itself through synchronicity. The essences of the E series of time have been insightfully touched upon by artists, poets and religious masters; however, the paper aims at situating it in a scientific framework. We explain the significance of the E series and the extent to which such “living time” can be observable in contemporary worlds.
