Weinstein, StevenAbstract
Many philosophers have concluded that Kant was wrong about space, the form of outer experience - that the space of our experience is not necessarily Euclidean. Be that as it may, one can nevertheless ask whether he was right about time, the form of inner experience. Is time necessarily one-dimensional? In this talk I will explore whether and how one might make sense of the possibility that the mind, or its physical embodiment, is extended in more than one time dimension.Many philosophers have concluded that Kant was wrong about space, the form of outer experience - that the space of our experience is not necessarily Euclidean.
