| | | | | [AI summary] The text discusses a framework for understanding subjective time as a causal network of local binding connections. It explores how different states of consciousness, such as those induced by psychedelics, can alter this network, leading to various experiences of time, including time loops, moments of eternity, and timelessness. The framework also connects these experiences to emotional valence and the structure of consciousness, suggesting that symmetry and regularity in the network contribute to positive emotional states. The text concludes by emphasizing the potential of this approach as a starting point for further research into time perception and consciousness. | |
