Vizualno predočiti vrijeme

Neću ponovo filozofirati o tome što je vrijeme, o tome da ne postoji kao takvo i da nema smisla. Ovaj put me zanima kako razni ljudi razno vizualiziraju tok vremena.
Na primjer, zamislite da je početak godine, racimo siječanj. kako ćete percipirati vremensku udaljenost do rujna? Vrlo vjerojatno bi se radilo o nekoj kružnici, podijeljenoj na 12 dijelova - mjeseci (kao sat), a rujan bi se nalazio isto gdje i 9 sati.

Ovo vrijedi za mene, neznam za vas. Iako nisam našao neku korisnu primjenu toga.
Osim što su rođendani koje pratim markirani na toj vizualizaciji. :)

Uostalom, drugi su pisali pa ja ne moram ponovo:

Can You See Time?

Imagine if you could see time laid out in front of you, or surrounding your body. And you could physically point to specific dates in space.
Important dates might stand out - birthdays, anniversaries. And you could scan a visible timeline - to check if you were available - whenever you made plans. No actual diary necessary.
BBC - According to Julia Simner, a psychologist from the University of Edinburgh, there is a reasonable chance you can. And that you may use the experience, unconsciously, every day.
Dr Simner studies synaesthesia - a condition caused by an unusually high number of connections between two areas of the brain's sensory cortex, making two senses inseparable.
Synaesthetes, as they are known, have experiences that might seem extremely strange to any non-synaesthete.
The extra connections might be between the brain area that processes colours and the area that processes language.
"One of the most common variants is called grapheme-colour synaesthesia," says Dr Simner.
"People with this variant know the colour of letters of the alphabet. So they know that the letter 'A' may be red. But not just any red, it's a certain shade of crimson. And B is turquoise-blue."
These colours are different from person to person, but for one synaesthete they are very consistent.
"If you are a synaesthete with a red A, your A has always been red and will always be red. And it's so intrinsic, that many synaesthetes never question whether this is unusual."
