Time. Why do we feel we're falling through it when we're not?

It's a great liberating concept, even if it doesn't happen.

Craig Callender is Professor of Philosophy at the University of California, San Diego. In this talk, he trawls through the model that he describes as Manifest Time.

We'll leave Callender to explain it; though he detours down a lot of byways and rabbit holes as he does so.

With manifest time, the present is special, the past fixed, the future wide open and everything 'flows' forward. But according to Callender, and physics, this model is fundamentally wrong!
